Great spot for food

Awesome! I have been here a couple times now and I really like this place. The vibes are awesome, the drinks are amazing, especially the beers and they have live music. The establishment is large enough to fit plenty of people and I have never had to stand around. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about their brand and their establishment. The restrooms are clean and they have games that you can rent out and play with friends or family. I definitely give this place five stars and I can definitely see myself coming here continuously.

We went to Thompson’s last night to listen to a band. It was so much fun. They reserved two big tables outside for us. Very accommodating. The food and beer and service was excellent. We will definitely be going back!

The food and beer here are exceptional - highly recommend! Making reservations is quick and easy; last Friday, I made a free reservation for 30, and Martha was incredibly accommodating. They also had a live band playing 2000s and classic rock, and they were awesome. Such a fun atmosphere all around! The patio is my favorite - it's well-heated even for February. There's also seating inside and upstairs, which can be perfect for the wintertime.

Love coming here all the time. Their food is always great. Their customer service is the best. We've been coming here nonstop since October 2024. They always recognize us when we come and it's so nice. So happy for their new lease and adventure coming soon. Will definitely have to keep visiting this location and the new one to help support them.

Such a great spot with delicious food and drinks!
We came on a Saturday evening, and it was packed. Even so, the entire staff was doing their absolute best to keep things moving fast. We got our drinks almost immediately, and the food came out in about 10 minutes.
We ordered the pub burger, the American burger, and mozzarella sticks. The pub burger was so big I couldn’t even finish it. What really impressed me was how juicy it was without the bun getting soggy or falling apart like it does at so many other places - the bread was firm and really good quality. Both burgers came with fries. Definitely grab sauces right away; I especially loved the spicy ranch sauce.
For drinks, I had a sour beer, blueberry and lemon, and it was absolutely amazing. If you’re not sure you’ll like it, you can ask for a sample, which is a really nice touch.
The atmosphere is also super interesting: upstairs they have large communal tables, which makes it easy to sit, chat, and even meet new people. Such a fun experince.
The service deserves special mention - I honestly don’t know how the owner managed to hire so many friendly and professional people. We chatted with several staff members, and every single one of them was the definition of polite.
Highly recommend checking this place out!

Saturday around 5 PM. We stopped here after a bike ride around the city — hungry, a bit tired, and ready for a proper break.

The place was slightly tricky to spot at first. Nothing critical, but a small sign or clearer indication from the street would help, especially on a busy weekend.

Once inside, everything changed quickly.

We were welcomed by a great host — friendly, confident, and genuinely helpful. I had plenty of questions, and instead of just answering them, she helped narrow things down and suggested exactly what fit my taste. Calm, professional, and very natural service — the kind that instantly makes you relax.

I ordered mozzarella sticks, a strawberry mocktail, and the American burger.

The food came out fast and hit the spot after the ride. The burger was juicy, simple, and well balanced — no gimmicks, just done right. The strawberry mocktail was refreshing, not overly sweet, and perfect after being active.

We also asked for an extra sauce with the mozzarella sticks. It was brought out without any mention of an extra charge — a small gesture, but one that really stood out.

Overall, great experience. Solid food, excellent service, and a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely a place I’d come back to again.
