Customer Reviews

"Ashley provided excellent service. There were 5 in our party and almost all plates were completely eaten. 3 of us ordered 3 different tacos. 1 person did not like their tacos but others finished them. Flour tortillas should be warmed. I noticed all of them came out cold. The temperature was actually too cold inside. We had to go outside to thauh out. Atmosphere was okay for an old tavern but I was expecting something different. Everyone was polite and helpful. Dinner and beverages were good."

"Can't believe we have never been here until now. It the place I have been looking for. Nice little place you feel comfortable in and they had live music. The singer sounded awesome and had the volume perfect that you could enjoy your dinner and have a conversation with the music playing. Got the Seafood platter and it didn't disappoint. Perfect size and the see salad that came with it was really good with the raspberry vinaigrette. Love they have raspberry vinaigrette which is my favorite and not offered in many places. Will definitely be back to try more"

"First the Lobster Mac and Cheese was amazing. I wouldn't recommend the wings. I think they must have been deep fried for an hour. So hard and super tough. I ordered 15 and wow so tough. The fish and shrimp tacos were really good. I tried to call my order in good luck on getting anyone to answer the phone. Then when I got there none of the servers wanted to take our Togo order it was obvious finally one young girl did. Atmosphere was great very lively. Don't waste your money on the wings. (More like chicken jerky)! The rest of the food was great."

"This pub is solid! It's got all the usual pub grub--burgers, wings, nachos--and it's all just really good. Nothing fancy, but totally hits the spot. Plus, they've got a pretty solid beer lineup with some local stuff mixed in, so you'll always find something good to drink. The vibe is super chill, and the bartender is awesome--just one of those friendly, down-to-earth ladies who makes you feel like a regular even if it's your first time there. If you're ever looking to grab a beer and some comfort food, this is definitely the spot."

- Nick G.

"I've been hearing about this place for some time and finally made the opportunity to try it. Very local bar kind of atmosphere. Live music the evening I was there, playing music everyone knows. Decent beer selection, with more than couple local brews. Good drink selection and a good menu selection. I definitely recommend and definitely plan to go back."

- Greg C.

"Delicious food and friendly staff. I love going here, burgers and wings are incredible every time. Sarah is a fantastic server and knows everyone."

"Great pub and restaurant away from the busy downtown and congested restaurant areas. Fast, friendly service with lots of craft beers from which to choose. The "backyard" is dog friendly, has plenty of seating, and comes with sand volleyball court, tv's, corn hole, and table service (sometimes). Special note...DO NOT PARK IN FRONT OF THE DUDE NEXT DOOR! He'll tow your vehicle quick!"
