I was shopping at the mini mall or strip mall next door when I knotest the street sign , I had some time for myself I decided to take a look. Inside it's dark until your eyes aquint to the indoor. The first thing I see is a menu board of a lot of beer. Confused at first then asked the tender what it all meant and what I was looking for and I wish I could have remembered his name it was like a week week and a half ago Tuesday or Wednesday afternoon anyway all I can say is I'll be back and I'm not from here I was visiting from out of town. Let me finish with I was there an hour and I got more than I was looking for and a new outlook on some really great beers

Great local spot with a clean bar, solid beer list, and hearty food (the French Dip with au jus was on point). The vibe here is laid-back but can light up quick once the jukebox gets going — everyone’s singing, smiling, and having a good time. Nelson, the owner, is a genuinely cool and down-to-earth guy who makes sure everyone feels welcome. Definitely a place to make your regular stop.

This place has been here for many years, however, has been re-opened (a year ago from what I was told), after the original establishment closed. On my visit this evening, I had a good time. The drinks were made to my satisfaction. The bartenders were polite, attentive, overall friendly. Pricing was fair and in line with this type of establishment. I liked that attention was paid to cleanliness as they had someone washing dishes and wiping tables/counters. This is a something that is routinely overlooked in bars/pubs/night clubs, and one that is important, not to be overlooked, as its fundamental in lessening the spread of contagious illnesses. Not to mention, it feels a lot more comfortable to be in a sanitary environment while enjoying your favorite beer or cocktail. That in turn, keeps customers coming back. After all, this isn't the old west where you walk in and the bartender is literally spit polishing shot glasses. 🤢 So keep up the great management and thank you for the hospitality. I will happily visit again and recommend your establishment.

I gave no review of food as I didn't have any and don't know if food is made and served here. I was there, strictly on a mission of *anti-sobrietal and philosophical enlightenment through social verbal interaction with like-minded individuals, particularly of the female genre. *Getting drunk, B.S.-ing with the guys, and flirting with beautiful women [who get more beautiful with each shot]. 😅 Over all a good place to stop in for a casual drink.

This is an [too] honest review and accurate as to my personal experience, as all my reviews represent, for the assistance to fellow patrons everywhere. Cheers!

We dined at The Standard Pub for our daughter’s 16th birthday dinner. She wanted to try it and we were so happy! We will definitely return.

Here’s what we loved:
- Food was delicious! Because it’s a “pub” we weren’t expecting the food to be so good. Nothing was over cooked nor underdone. Prime rib dip was fantastic and the prime rib chili was out of this world! Mild spice and lots of flavor. Every plate was completely clean at the end of the meal.
- Staff and service were great. We didn’t have to ask for refills or for service. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and very prompt.
- Clean dining area and restrooms. It’s surprising how many places seem dingy these days but this place was spic-and-span.
- Plenty of bar space over in the “bar” area. We look forward to returning to enjoy that area with friends!

Things we would change if we could:
- hard surfaces everywhere = really loud environment. It is a pub, we get that, but starting just before 7 (on a Sunday) the music volume was turned up and it became very difficult to have a conversation in the dining portion of the space. We attempted to come for dinner a few months ago but it was so loud we could hardly even hear ourselves talking to the hostess so we left to find a better fit for the purpose of our dinner - to talk.
- lots of dark surfaces seemed to tamp down a good dining atmosphere. I assume these colors work best for the late night crowd.

It was our first time having dinner here. We had a steak with garlic fries and chili beans we also order beer and a few hibiscus margaritas. Everything we ate was delicious the drinks were amazing. The service was wonderful the person that assisted us was very nice she provided wonderful service. Now the bar area was not extremely busy(Thursday night)but it looked like fun. There was people karaoking the vibe was pretty chill.

Been here twice now and The Standard Pub is one of the few restaurants I have been to in life that got better over time. The Standard Pub has like a lowkey romantic, classy vibe as a setting. But the staff make the atmosphere feel very positive and uplifting. They don’t bother you, and although I just walked in and seated myself, they were on it. The food menu is simple so from my limited experience. Everything was good. Soo good I’m eager to explore whatever is on the menu. They actually make drinks worth what they cost and in the correct glassware. Unlike most establishments. The Standard Pub sets the standards. And meets yours.

I went in to see the end of the Stanley Cup. All nice and good but they served me the beer with a big head. Almost two fingers. Please work on that.
