This small pub makes you feel right at home in the first moment you walk in. Best service and American pub food in the Watertown area. Highly recommend coming in on Tuesdays or Thursdays for trivia. My wife and I went from the "living a few blocks down the road" to be a "regular couple ". Love, love, love!

I used to come here often in school and not much has changed, which is kind of cool. They still give you popcorn and the set up is the same. The food is okay. It can be a fun vibe for sure depending on the time and day of the week. It is also somewhere that is open later compared to some restaurants in the area. It is definitely quick if you are getting food, and casual so a good place for kids.

Our bartender made the best skinny spicy margaritas with halfway Hot sauce. I wish I got his name. Very friendly.

I'm not a fan, some of the food taste like it came out the can or box. I had the ribs but I wasn't too fond of them, was kind of hard. The sauce they put on in the barbecue sauce is really good. It's a cool spot to chill out and have plenty of seating. This parking on the street, and a reasonably priced so that's good at least.

I always see this place when I'm ordering on my GrubHub or Uber Eats but I've always been reluctant to order from there because on the menu when you order online it's more expensive than it actually is in the store. So I go in there because they have a great menu there's a lot of good options and everything really sounds delicious. Which is why I got so many things, the food is all right there's nothing to like Rave about but it was pretty good. My daughter had the fried chicken dinner it comes with stuffing and mashed potatoes. I like the fried chicken, but my daughter wasn't a fan of it because it I wasn't actually like chicken wings or breasts or anything it was a filet. For me, the mashed potatoes were a little garlicky but still pretty good. I love that they leave the skin on. The ribs were a little dry they won't fall off the bone like I expected, but it was okay. The stuffing is like the stuff that you get from the box, but I'm not complaining because I love that stuffing. The clam chowder is good, not very clammy, very chowdery. The chili was okay. What I didn't like is that they put sausage in it, so that kind of threw it off for me. I took my food to go, but I went in there to order it it's a cute little spot, and they do trivia on Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I will definitely be back there. The dude at the bar was working his behind off. There wasn't like one second where I had seen him stop. Shout out to that dude.

My wife and I went here today, it was a great experience. Because it was a Monday at 4:pm,we basically had the place to ourselves . The server was really nice,and welcoming. The food was plentiful and delicious. We started off with nachos with chilli, a huge pile. I had the shepherd's pie,while my wife had the cheeseburger. Plenty of tv screens to watch the game,not a bad seat in the house. A really nice local restaurant,I highly recommend!!!!! Bon appetit!!!

We go there all the time! Love this place! Great food, great atmosphere. Great bartenders and servers. NEVER a problem. Unfortunately.. last 2 visits we got chicken wings which are usually perfect. Got Teriyaki a thin sauce so we could see the freezer burn on our wings. It was disgusting. At home if you grab something out of the freezer and see freezer burn you throw it out as to not serve it to your family and friends. Disappointed in the cooks, as how would the owners know? They rely on there cooks to serve to their Guests quality food. Cooks if you won’t eat it throw it away! Owners talk to the kitchen! Are you aware of it what’s going on? We will NOT stop going just letting you know.

Food was good, service was great. Michelle was our primary server, but they work as a team and they couldn’t be more attentive. Very solid tavern fare. We look forward to returning.
