The fish and chips were delicious and very hot. We also got the shepherd's pie. It was so hot and flavorful. Service was fast. They had a band playing also. The game was on the TV which was a plus for our group.

First time here. Monday in October. We were greeted promptly. Drinks came our very quick. The 4 of us honestly had our food out in ten mins tops. Never have I ever had food out that quick. So definitely a plus for quick service!

Nice pub with huge portion sizes. Lots of seating. Went during lunch, so can't comment on the night crowd, but it looks like they have live music, darts, etc. Food tastes great.

Went here on St Patrick's day and it was very lively to say the least. Despite all the craziness the food came out quickly and was delicious. Really a nice and fun experience here. The waitress was also very nice and kind.

Really enjoyed our time here! Drinks were delicious. Food (we only had appetizers- seriously, try the Shepards Pie Rangoon) was delicious. Would absolutely go back again!

Monday night is is 50 cent wings. Wings were very large and the breading was great. If the rest of the food is as good as the wings then what a great place.

Phenomenal Guinness stew!! Reuben was perfect and hubby said Cod appetizer (more like a meal in and of itself) was wonderful with malt vinegar. A++++++

It can certainly be a tight space on busy nights, but the bartenders are super quick to get your order out and the food is above and beyond for your standard pub grub. Don't mind the appearance of the beef stew -- it's the bomb!...Read More
