Busy, loud, got bad service - left. (Understaffed?) Food smelled great but friendlier places abound.

Very nice spot for food and drinks. Our waitress service started out good and then went down hill. I've never seen an ice tray with oyster shells, used lemons and plates stay the entire dinner melting away. I was never asked if I wanted another $14 drink which I'm sure the owner wants to sell. We also had to share our water. My wife said (she just watched you taking some of my water and never came over) A little food left and we finally were served a carafe of water. Waited a while for the check. Several tables around us empty. I stood up to find someone and she came over.

This is a gastropub right next to the aquarium, which is super convenient if you plan to visit the aquarium. The fish & chips is a bit pricey but they do give you large portions so that helps. The shrimp was also good but there is a big upcharge when you add it to the salads (+12 dollars).The mussels were okay and the breakfast nachos were good. Overall, a good place to check out if you're in the mood for seafood.

Disappointing! The atmosphere was nice and the service was great and fast, but the scallops were way undercooked. The mushroom risotto was a bazooka blast of mushrooms. The French onion soup could be diluted 4-5x and still might be tasting like concentrated beef bullion. They need some feedback to fix some things.

Went for a late lunch on a Sunday. The atmosphere was fine, however, the food (2 of us got the pear, brie & prosciutto melt which was not great at all). Burger was fine and turkey club was just ok. We saw our server one time (during ordering phase) and never checked in on our party again. I will not return as is the consensus of our party of 4. Sorry granary…up your game.

The building, dinning set up and wall art are beautiful. The bartender and our server were absolutely rude. They do not have soda fountains. They have canned flat Pepsi and Diet Pepsi that is probably expired they pour in a glass for you and it’s nasty. I asked for two lemons at the bar because our waiter did not seem thrilled to serve us. The bartender did not hand me the lemons but handed them to the server to hand to me which was extremely annoying because yet again I was WAITING FOR THEM. The clam chowder was really good and so was the fish. The coleslaw sucked. There wasn’t enough vinegar and the kale was old. Very expensive for a bad time. I definitely would NOT go back.

Quaint gathering place with excellent food and drinks. The "What the Duck" drink comes with a fun little duck float! Garlic knots and Brussel Sprouts were delicious!!! Margherita Flatbread was also good but was too full to finish.

Wife ordered the hot crab roll, and I got the granary burger. Crab roll was alright, but the burger was meh... glad I didn't order something else...if you can't make a burger, can you make something that is a little more technical? $20 for a cold burger with almost no flavor?

We had a large party and they accommodated us immediately. We had several children and it was a great spot with kids. We dined outside and it was beautiful. The servers were very kind. Cocktails were great. We were bummed that they have cappuccinos on the menu but don’t actually do them. The clam chowder was amazing. The fish and chips were great. The corned beef hash was a super bummer! Which stinks because we were there on St. Patty’s day and I chose that restaurant because it had corned beef hash.It was really bland and flavorless. I also ordered the lobster rangoons just because neither my husband or I enjoyed our corned beef hash and they weren’t great. The sauce was very nice but the rangoons weren’t great. If given the chance to go again, I would probably go for that amazing chowder and cocktails but wouldn’t waste my money on the main courses.Kid-friendliness: Coloring pages, bustling atmosphere so if yourKiddo makes some noise it won’t be a bother. Good kids options.
