My husband ordered the penne pasta Alfredo with steak. The 5 small strips of steak were so full of fat that he couldn’t even find 1 bite of acceptable meat. The Alfredo sauce tasted like it had been watered down and from a jar. His meal was $16.99 by itself and after letting the waitress know how awful the food was, they still charged us for his entire dinner. Absolutely ridiculous! Here’s some advice, don’t put something on your menu, at an outrageous price, that you can’t even cook properly! We will certainly never go back, and I will be letting my friends and family know how awful the food was here!

Very nice place! The building is nice looking inside. I got a burger and fries. Unfortunately, I found the food to be a bit under seasoned, but otherwise very good! The staff was very polite, too. Overall, I enjoyed my meal here.Parking: The pub is located in a small strip mall with parking in front of the restaurant.

The meal started out with them being out of the appetizer we wanted. The service was slow and it was not busy at all. My mashed potatoes tasted like they were made from a box and there was a big dry ball in them that didn't get mixed. My drink never got refilled and our waitress disappeared for 25 minutes after she dropped off our food. Food quality and poor service would make me think twice before returning here.
We heard a lot about the rib meat egg rolls and had to try them! They were good however was not expecting them to have so much BBQ sauce on them. Cheddar cubes and fries were really good! The burger was cooked to medium when we asked for medium rare (there was no pink on the inside of it) which was disappointing. Also wish they had mocktails for those who do not drink. Fun atmosphere though!

I haven't been her since 2017 and I was sooo sad to find the loaded potato skins were not on the menu! I ended up getting the rib egg rolls. They were okay they needed something else in them other than just meat. Service was good but then we had to wait a bit for our check.

There was an hour waiting list at other restaurants on a Friday evening, but we were able to get right in to the pub without waiting. Drinks were cold, food was great! We will definitely return.
