    We went for happy hour. Every appetizer we had was amazing. The oysters were fabulous as was the pub burger. My cocktail and the wine were great too. You can’t beat the happy hour prices or the exceptional service we had. Our server Jordan was the icing on the cake. She was exceptional!

    We went before a hockey game and were pleasantly greeted and promptly seated. Nicely decorated with a pleasant ambiance. Casey, our incredible server, came over right away and told us about the great happy hour specials, including many menu items at 50% off as well as cocktails and wine. Casey gave us many good suggestions and brought out our food in a timing and logical manner. She checked on us several times and we never felt rushed. Good food at reasonable prices with a great server. Highly recommend!

    Overall, we felt like welcomed and appreciated patrons, and we will most certainly be back. Food was great, most had hanger steak. Drinks were excellent. The table size was perfect for our group. Its location at the door made for a noisier, colder and less private dinner, and the use of stools for two of our party was less comfortable for them. Our server, Jenna was great, and she made up for the inconvenience with her enjoyable personality, complimentary bruschetta, and flexibility on appetizer portions.
