About Draught House Bar & Grill

Draught House Bar & Grill offers tasty food and commendable service, as noted by regular customers. The menu features a variety of options, including Fish and Chips with fresh fish and Eggplant Parm sliders. A highlight is the Chicken Cordon Blue, although it differs from the traditional version. The French Onion Soup is particularly praiseworthy, being considered one of the best by a self-proclaimed connoisseur. The restaurant also offers a well-regarded Ribs dish and Fish and Chips.

Recently, customers have noted that the restaurant was once a favorite, especially for its Chicken Parm, but has been declining in quality over the years. Changes such as replacing Greek bread and dipping oil with bread rolls and butter, and experimenting with plating, have affected the dining experience. Some dishes, like the Turkey Club and Steak and Cheese Sandwich, did not meet expectations, with issues like over-cheesiness and diced steak instead of shaved. It seems the new chef is trying to introduce fancier or trendier dishes, but this has sometimes come at the expense of the basic qualities that made the food great initially.

Despite these concerns, the place still has its strengths. Customers have enjoyed the fried pickles and recommend the Jameson burger. The service is praised, especially when staff like Jessica C provide wonderful service. The atmosphere could improve with some background music since it is also a bar, but drinks remain great. The spanakopita has also received high praise. While the parking lot isn't fully accessible, there is a ramp that allows wheelchair access. Overall, Draught House Bar & Grill continues to offer a satisfying dining experience, with hopes that the focus will return to its roots and basics.
