This place is traditional with excellent food and service. The $55 price fix is the best deal in town with homemade potato lyke soup, fish & chips, and a bottle of wine! Thursday nights by the way.

Such a cute place! I went during Christmas time and their decor was very festive and fun. I met up with some friends and got a cozy booth on the bar side. Good service, delicious drinks and decent food.

Our son had been touting Playwright since we came to visit. It has a fantastic Irish vibe. We just missed the Irish band. I started with a pint of Half and Half followed by chicken pot pie. (So delicious.) My wife had the Reuben (very tasty.) Our son enjoyed the veggie plate. For a wonderful family faire, be sure to check out Playwright.
Friendly staff, nice menu, but a little pricey. Fun to join them on trivia night!

This is a staple for the area. I noticed a few items floating in the water and cider. It doesn't take away from my reading, but just keep an eye out.

We went here for an early dinner. I ordered the fish and chips and my wife ordered the corned beef and cabbage.
My dish came with 3 large pieces of fish on top of a pile of fries and a cup of cole slaw. It was enough for 3 meals. My wife's dish had plenty of corned beef on top of cabbage, potatoes, and carrots. She was very pleased with the meal.
Super friendly service.
