We just missed happy hour but the menu for happy hour is awesome. This is my first time here. My son comes all the time. Looking forward to the all you can eat ribs. “I’ll be back”“

“A Gem of a Waitress in a Cozy Pub

I've been a regular at this pub for 3 years and one of the main reasons I keep coming back is the incredible waitress who has been here for 2.5 years. Brianna has this unique ability to make every customer feel like they're at home. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care for patrons' comfort is unparalleled. If you're looking for a place where the service is as delightful as the ambiance, this is it - all thanks to her. Five stars aren't enough for the joy she brings to each visit!“

“Chuck and Helen (?) friendly and helpful. chicken wings thur special...plump...crisp...deelish.... will return. make the time to seek them out in Ogden.“

“The food is EXCELLENT!!!!!“

“I went for my usual Chloe puri with a little twist.
The twist: i call it a stroke of genius from the artist(chef) Sanjaye. I substituted the raw onion with a cucumber salad. Recommended by the person behind the counter.
Small portion of Cucumber with shredded carrots few pieces of tomato and lettuce. Vinaigrette: olive oil, salt, cinnamon, a touch of vinegar with raw Thai pepper
Best combination with chole to cools everything down after some spicy food.

Try it!!“

“Fun patio and fantastic service!“

“Best place ever! Don’t Miss out on having a great time here! You won’t regret it !“

“I really enjoy their wings. I felt bad for the 1 waitress that was doing literally everything at the restaurant. She was waiting tables, serving food, clearing tables and even bartending....while another employee sat in the restaurant with his friends and did nothing to help! She was frustrated, but kept a smile on her face.“

“I wish I could remember our servers name, that served us out on the patio. She was a perfect mix of knowledge, sass, and was a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. The food was spot on, Pints were cold and refreshing, but she would deffs be the reason to return. 2 thumbs up for the "Rhinestone Roster" comment.“

“Smaller yet cozy neighborhood pub. Clean inside and friendly staff I've always found. Have some good specials and host karaoke as well during the week. Have been here a few times and never had a bad experience. Not very big space but still good to try out for a drink or two.“

“I came in for a birthday party impromptu and consequently forgot my wallet (including ID) at home, and despite not actually being able to stay and enjoy the place due to my mistake, it seemed a cool vibe. The best part was the friendly blonde with a wicked tattoo was immensely kind and gracious with me, apologetic even though it was 110% my fault for being forgetful. This tells me it’s a great spot to go for a chill atmosphere and amazing service, just from a 5 minute experience. I recommend supporting!!“
