Nice, clean place, with good food, but the atmosphere is seasoned. Not a place for young adults.

Food was great and atmosphere is small bar and grill with banquet rm in back. Gets busy fast.

Nice new place they are in, love the fish and chips. My only suggestion is they should have a drink/beer menuParking: Exiting to the left is hazardous as it's a blind corner. Use careWheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp

Okay, so I need to start with the atmosphere is great. Drinks were cold and it was packed. I got a bitter taste when the bar staff was chatting for a solid 3 minutes without any check in and missed my keno and guess what.. my numbers all hit. So I was not happy. The pastrami sandwich pure grease and dry, the reuben.. couldn't even eat it. Thick slabs on soggy bread. I wouldn't mind going back for a drink but food will be out and no expectations for keno

Overall, it was pretty mediocre. My uncle got the wrong drink twice and it was two different drinks, one of them wasn't even the right alcohol. Outside of that, the menu is incorrect on several items. The Caesar dressing is more like a vinaigrette. We asked when the Bavarian pretzel came to the table without the menu listed beer cheese (that we asked for extra of) and it seemed like our server wasn't even going to tell us, he just said "oh yeah it turns out we don't have beer cheese here." That's usually something you tell a customer before you fire the food or even deliver it. Instead we got honey mustard and some obviously store bought bulk ranch. We wouldn't have ordered it, it's as simple as that. The shrimp soup special had one piece of frozen shrimp. And the gravy for the shepherd pie was all congealed over, like it had been sitting out for a while. There was also something floating in the ice water that we got halfway through our meal. Very little redeemable factors to the experience, so I won't be back.

Back for some Saint Patty's Day weekend entertainment and great food. Live entertainment with the Ruffians from NYC. Corned beef Reuben and Irish potato jackets topped with corned beef. Service is fantastic.

Excellent food at reasonable prices. Service was good and atmosphere a little noisy but fun. Looking forward to the outside patio this summer.

Stopped in the Sunday afternoon before St. Patrick's Day weekend. The food was good, Bangers and Mash, corned beef sandwich, Gin & Tonic, Irish coffee with Baileys & Jamison. The food was good, the service was okay. I suggest beer or wine to drink, the mixed drinks were extremely weak. We will try again, hopefully this was an off day for them

We like to come here after work every now and then. They have a pretty large selection of beverages and food to choose from. I would personally recommend the potato jackets and a beer (or two) if you're going for a quick visit. Plenty of seating between the bar and tables and an authentic feel all around. Always greeted by a friendly staff and given fast service.
