From the moment I walked in, I loved the atmosphere! I sat down at the bar and Stacey was warm and friendly while I looked at the menu. I got the gold coins, Irish pizza and potato leek soup. Had Guinness brownie for dessert. I can't wait to go back again to try more menu items! Best pub ever in the Quiet Corner!

The Hare & The Hound: A Must-Visit Spot for Elevated Pub Fare
Stopped by The Hare & The Hound and, let me tell you, if you’re on the hunt for some top-tier pub grub, this place is worth the visit. Their Buffalo Clucking Chicken Sandwich hit all the right notes — crispy, juicy chicken drenched in a perfectly balanced buffalo sauce with just the right amount of heat. Every bite was a satisfying mix of tang, crunch, and tenderness. Truly a cluckin' masterpiece!
But the real surprise was their Fried Pickles Burger. This isn’t just your average burger — the beef was flavorful and cooked to perfection, but the kicker was those fried pickles. Golden, crunchy, and slightly tangy, they took the whole burger up a notch. Whoever thought of putting fried pickles on a burger deserves a medal.
The atmosphere was laid-back, the service was friendly, and the food? Well, let’s just say this hare has a hopping good menu. I'm definitely putting this on my list for a return visit!

The fried chicken sandwich is absolutely delicious! Quality of food is top notch and the service is awesome! Cute touches to the kids menu— pancake shaped like Mickey!!! Dessert was scrumptious! Highly recommend.
If I could give 10 stars, I would.. Food was incredible. Staff was amazing…. Met the Owner last night and he was huge on constructive criticism, But we had none…. That says everything…. 👍
Made some bacon this morning for the leftover deviled scotched eggs. 😃

It's a good, solid restaurant- the servers are great, the music is fun. The menu is ok- the boiled dinner has been very hit or miss over the years. Today I got The Melt, which is apple, cheddar, goat cheese, greens and fig jam on toasted sourdough- (added bacon) something told me I had tried it years ago and didn't like it, but it sounds so good, I thought I'd try it (again?) And I was so disappointed. I feel like no one has ever taste tested this sandwich in the kitchen, because it's terrible. It is so slathered in the fig sauce you literally cannot taste a single other ingredient. After choking on the cloying sugary overload of the first half, I took apart the 2nd half and scraped the drenched apples and as much of the fig as possible- it left a coating of about 1/4 the amount of fig--- and it was delicious. I could suddenly taste the goat cheese, the cheddar, and the bacon. It was delicious. I hesitate to try anything new on the menu because I don't understand how no one has noticed in all these years that some of their recipes need improvements

We have been to the Hare and the Hound many times and I could never say I was dissatisfied. The food has always been high quality, good quantity and yummy. I would recommend it. However, tonight was not quite the same. They were very busy but we got right in and our server, Maddie, was delightful. It was the dish I chose that was not up to par. Butternut squash ravioli, which I love, in a brown butter sage sauce. Sounds great, but for $24 I expected a filling meal. There was no accompanying bread or anything and there were 8 average sized ravioli. The browned butter was so sweetened that that's all I could taste, so I wad not a fan. Did you do the math? 8 ravioli for $24. That's $3 each. Good thing I wasn't very hungry! I definitely won't get that again, but I will go back and thoroughly enjoy some old fav next time. Also my pomegranate margerita was delicious!
