Oldest pub in Old town, must visit place. The atmosphere takes you back to 1888 Chicago. Pretzels and bratwursts, beer and gluhwein, artifacts the original owner brought from Germany.

I’ve been here many times now and really love the selection of cocktails and the atmosphere at the bar. I’ve spent five months in England earlier this year and this definitely has an authenitc pub feel. The customers are friendly! There isa game on and the staff takes care if you.

The staff are wonderful and It’s a great place to stop for a nosh or watch a game. I’ve also met some friends there and it was a comfortable place to chat.

I can only comment on the atmosphere, service, and drinks since we sat at the bar only.

Atmosphere is very old world, reminds me of an oktoberfest tent. There was open space at the bar on a friday night. The bartender was very friendly and our drinks appeared immediately. Great liquor and beer selection. Excellent location right across from happy camper pizza.
