I went a couple weeks ago and unsure if it was a new waitress or not. She was extremely rude, was short and pretty much threw our food on the table. We would ask for something and she wouldn’t say anything she would just leave and bring it. A simple yes would be fine . Didn’t ask how we wanted the burgers cooked nothing. Food wasn’t too good either. I have been here several times and usually the service is great but this time no.

Friendly bunch staff and customers. Food and drinks are good,Football is big at this pub. Highly recommend this spot

The restaurant is like being at home even at the restaurant with friendly hospitality and welcome everybody at the restaurant with great food like the way mommy use to do

Worst wings I've ever had in my life. Got a kids meal (4 wings) since I wasn't hugely hungry and the wings were so overcooked and dry that they were inedible. Gave up after trying 1.

Do not be put off by the outside appearance, because what's inside is awesome!
We visited McKinley's Restaurant and Pub on a recommendation and were not disappointed. The food, service and atmosphere is top shelve. For casual dining, McKinley's is our new top choice.

I visited this place last year and it seemed like I was not welcomed. Sitting at the bar waiting to place an order took forever. No one said hey sorry for the wait but we will be with you shortly. After 15-20 mins I got up and left. I went on Wednesday 8/13/25 for lunch with two coworkers who were eager to eat there so I agreed. After sitting down the waiter only bought two menus to the table. I looked around like where is mine? Wasn’t sure if they were short of menus but my co worker asked for another one and a young lady just dropped it on the table and left. The man returned to take our drink orders. I asked for water and it tasted like it came from god knows where!!! After 15 mins of waiting to place our order, my co worker flagged the guy down to say we are ready to order, his response was give me a minute with an attitude. We got up and left. I feel like this place does not treat black people with good customer service.

If I could give no stars, believe me, I would. Very disappointed. The vibe when you walk into this “restaurant” , is extremely distasteful. The first time I came, I was waiting for at least an half hour before being seated, there was no one else waiting but me so I’m not understanding what the reason for the wait was and I was alone at that. Once I was seated, no one came to serve me until an additional 20 minutes later. I decided to get up and leave and figured it was just a bad day and I would try again later.

Absolutely not. Today was my second time coming and with coworkers. Only 2 menus were given to a table of 3 individuals. Waiter looked me dead in my eyes and walked away. When the waiter returned with water, it did not taste fresh AT ALL. Very nasty, As if I didn’t feel disrespected and unwanted the first time, today was the icing on the cake. Will not be returning here ever again. If this is the type of service the owner allows their employees to give to customers, I think it’s fair that everyone chooses NOT to waste their money here.

Absolutely will never be back. Three of us walked in, got drinks, 2 menus and 15 minutes later still haven’t ordered food. I was going to ask the server if we could order but when I said “he sir” his response was “give me a minute” and stormed off. Will absolutely never return and suggest the same for others
