6 of us went on a Thursday afternoon. We all got sick had different beers and wings. Disappointed 😞 we had never been before and I guess we won't be back. Not very clean.

The server on their own accord charged a 25% tip on the machine without mentioning they were doing so. Not sure if this is standard for the place, but keep an eye on how much they charge you for sure.

This is 5 stars for an old pub and old feel. Lots of beers on tap, food looked like cozy pub food, old building around for .. forever. Servers were friendly, and my pint was great value! Like? Under 6$?! Honestly it's an old pub, so if you like visiting nostalgic and pub feels, this is your spot.

Nice antique decor, the building is a landmark in the town and is over 100 years old. The staff are accommodating and friendly. The food is decent and affordable for appys. When I got up to sing karaoke, a dude made a "funny" comment but I'm a GREAT singer and put his foot in his mouth. Lol. The environment is a bit old school, I don't see many "colorful ppl" in here and it dosent feel like it would be friendly in that aspect. Besides that, it was OK, pretty quiet on this Thursday.

I came here for lunch a few weeks back, and I am still thinking about how terrible my meal was. I ordered the beef dip sandwich, and it was mostly inedible. In all seriousness I could not bite through the tough, leathery meat on this sandwich. The bread and the au jus were fine, but I can't get over the meat! The fries that came with my meal were also terrible, and sadly my girlfriend's meal was not much better. I really should have made a complaint while I was there but really couldn't have been bothered. I paid for our meals and left with no intention to come back after that.

I am sure it's a great place to come for a brew, but skip the lunch. Especially the beef dip!

Had the beef dip special, added sautéed mushrooms and onions. Was fantastic, would definitely order again. Good selection of draught beer, domestic and craft. TVs all around, good views from all seats. Great place to watch the big game

So this is a local pub with salty customers and amazing staff.

I didn't order the food this time around but I have in the past but I recommend looking at the daily specials because they are always a great price and tasty.
Good selection of local beers at a decent price.

Staff are attentive and friendly.
