    fun and lively atmosphere. good cocktail choices- the strawberry aperol spritz was crisp and refreshing! the chicken buffalo dip was a standout. Southwestern chicken salad also crisp and chicken was well seasoned. Fun place to go before hitting the theatre!

    Great place for casual tavern style food, but kicked up a notch. You can’t decide what you want to eat then come here there’s plenty of choices.

    This was our second visit, so obviously we like it. I want to offer a shout-out to our server (Regan?). She detected our unspoken discomfort with the noise level which was louder than previous visits and perhaps louder than expected for the pub staff so early on a Monday evening. She offered to open up a quieter area for us and it was perfect. All other aspects of service were at the high level we expected but she went out of her way to make us comfortable.

    Thank you for your fantastic review, David! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed your visit. We appreciate your feedback about the noise level. Looking forward to welcoming you back soon!

    The bartender was awesome and made Ana amazing dirty martini. The food was quite good-we had chowder and fish and chips. The cleanliness behind the bar could have been better. Overall good experience.

    The food is fantastic, couldn't ask for better. The only true issue is that is is a Very Severely small menu for dinner. MY wife wanted to ask them where were the Irish dishes starting with the obvious Corned Beef? I would recommend it.
    M.J. O'Connors Park PlazaResponded on December 30, 2024
    Clinton, we appreciate your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you loved the food. We understand your desire for a broader menu and value your input. We’re always looking to improve and will pass your suggestion along to the team. Thanks for the recommendation!
