Just all round wonderful experience. Great location. Easy parking. The food is exceptionally consistently great with nice variety. Love the decor however I miss the China, but understand the practicality. Staff are amazing. Always a fun night of laughs. Conversation about the food and relaxing atmosphere. Thank Mary, Leah and others.
I went there for lunch today. I really enjoyed it. They remodeled it beautifully, super friendly waitstaff and good food. I’m a vegetarian and my boyfriend is gluten free. The menu is extremely versatile which I definitely appreciate.❤️

It offers a small but excellent menu featuring upscale takes on classic pub fare, such as Curry Chicken, short rib & ale pie, cheeseburgers, and kale salad. The food is consistently praised for being fresh, well-seasoned, and delicious, with standout items like the burger with truffle fries and the pickled veg plate. Guests enjoy the great cocktails, including unique options like lemon, rye, and hot honey, as well as a good pint of Guinness. The pub has a charming atmosphere, enhanced by live music from a fiddler and guitar player, creating a lively and enjoyable setting. The outdoor seating provides a nice space to relax, and nearby parking makes visiting convenient. Service is friendly and attentive, with staff often offering excellent recommendations.
