I'm a big pub-food guy, and this place is my go-to for that nowadays. My favorite is the skillet cornbread and the *very* beefy chili which is served with chips and sour cream. The staff have always been prompt and friendly. The only downside is that it fills up most evenings, but I guess that's the best problem to have. Just make sure you have a reservation of be willing to wait a bit at prime times

Casual restaurant in Bedford strip mall near Marshall’s and Whole Foods. We have come here a few times. There is never a wait and always ample parking. I had a farmhouse burger with sweet potato fries and a hard seltzer. There is a bar area with lots of TVs to watch the game if that is what you want. Staff is friendly and helpful.Dietary restrictions: Certain menu items can be requested to be gluten free.

I worked here for 5 years, from back when it first opened until COVID and I still stop in when I can. I actually went last week and today I brought my granddaughter and her boyfriend in for dinner. They both found hair in their food and although I was embarrassed I tried to blow it off when first my granddaughter found the hair but when her boyfriend found 3 hairs I told the server, who got the manager, who said he would adjust the check. When the bartender brought the adjusted check all 3 meals had been removed although I didn't ask for that. As I tried to explain that removing all 3 meals wasn't necessary he gave serious attitude, and gave "that" look. We left after I left a 20% tip despite his attitude. I really was proud to work there for 5 years, enjoyed my years there. I am really disappointed that my experience there today was so shocking and to think I even tried to get my granddaughter and boyfriend to blow it off because I didn't want to cause a scene. But they treated this unprofessionally. This wouldn't have ever happened like this when I was there before.

I love this place, it is great for a fun night out or bringing in takeout. The food is consistently good, and the bar makes awesome drinks. It's a nice vibe inside and they do game nights. I'm glad it's stayed in Bedford for so long!

Never been in a single restaurant that makes the medium rare patty for me as ordered. But this restaurant did. It was perfect medium rare patty juicy on the burger! Also enjoyed other menus like wings, onion rings, and cauliflower cheese. Seats are plenty and spacious. Saw families with kids and various groups of people either for friendship or workship. The parking lot is huge.

The hostess was great. Waitress was absent. Food was mediocre at best. Chicken was overcooked and dry. Beer even tasted off like the keg was super old. Just disappointed for a $95 lunch.

Food was delicious and timely. The drinks were good. A real server you could talk to and a physical menu you could order off instead of just a QR code.

One of the bests onion rings I've ever had! Will definitely come back for more

We had their hamburgers, and they were delicious. We had 1 in our party who has Celiac and was assured that they have a completely separate area where they prepare their GF dishes.All in all, I would definitely recommend this place to anyone with gluten sensitivity.

After driving from Allentown PA, we were starving and lookin for some late night food. We were sat in Kyleigh’s section and she was absolutely amazing. So funny, great conversation, and the food was SO good. I hope we have an excuse to come back to Massachusetts one day just so we could eat here again. But until then, we will enjoy our leftovers and chocolate milk ??
