Extensive beer list and good service, but the five stars is really for the gnocchi with sausage, butternut squash, and cream sauce I had last night. Really good dish, and since their menu seems to rotate, hope that one sticks around

Delicious but not accessible.. extremely difficult to navigate the stairs with a mobility disadvantage. Not to mention the front staff was not exactly helpful on what to do for this instances. Need to be properly trained

Third time here and it’s an absolute gem. The burger is consistently delicious and the beer selection is excellent.
Their service is on point and here’s why:

Brian M our server was on top of it on a busy Saturday night, quick and attentive, I noticed the price of my Buffalo Trace was different on the printed menu from the online menu, I didn’t mind the price difference bc I was happy to pay it (it was a great old fashioned) but after I pointed out the price difference…he thanked me for letting them know and comped my drink! It wasn’t necessary at all but I really appreciate that kind of response.
Secondly, I ordered the fish and chips, which is the best fish and chips I’ve ever had (shout out to the kitchen staff!) But the fish portion was a little small. I’m assuming the manager clocked it, came over and said that’s a small piece of fish let me get you another one. She came out with a piece of fish twice the size. That’s good service!
It’s cozy, quality and exactly what you want on a cold night or a hot day. Good people, great food and drinks. Thank you Publick House !

Awesome spot for such a wide variety of beers! They have everything you could imagine and are super knowledgeable if you want a suggestion and are curious to try something new. The food is pretty great as well and I love how the menus change over so you can go every few months and know you’ll see different things. Cheeseburger nachos are crazy good when they have them. As well as one of my favorites brews… Duchesse Cherry which is rare to find.

Not sure what’s gone wrong, but used to be much better. I used to love the muscles; they’re a classic. Tonight, flavorless and awkwardly served on a tray with no bowl for shells. Fries were greasy and limp instead of crisp and flavorful. Wife ordered a veggie patty that she couldn’t cut through with a fork and knife. Won’t be going back any time soon.

A buddy and I stopped in here on a Sunday. The mussels with Allagash white broth was perfect. The beer selection kept use there for 6 hours. The staff was top notch. 10/10
