We had reservations for days for a Friday Fish Fry. Not only did they not have a fish fry, they were out of pretzel bites, and I asked what the soup of the day would be. The waitress said it was clam chowder. So, I said that I would have that, she said that they were out of that too. The owners son made excuses after 2.5 hours, when we were never checked on, and went to the bar to get a second drink. They never even refilled our iced teas. The WORST EVER. Don't go here. Ever!

Don’t eat here!!! They took over 2 hours to serve our food. We had reservations for over a week. They had nothing to serve us, no appetizers, terrible service and received 2 drinks with in 2 hrs. My brother in law is friends with the owner who knew we were coming in for fish fries and ordered 12 for us. They had nothing no fish. no pretzel bites, no soup, and anything you asked for they were out of. They suck and sorry so does the owner. He’s selling his place so he did not care….. so much for friends. My sister came from Virginia for his fish fry. My 90 year old mother was also here and nothing was even offered to compensate.

Had the greats time there after a couple bad experiences in other places in the city, was a ray of sun shine in an other wise shitty day. Kim the bar tender was awesome, very friendly, helpful and a pleasure to talk to. Got take out food was fabulous, had the shepherds pie fed both me and my wife with left overs. Will definitely be a return customer.

Just across from the FX Matt brewery this pub provided the right place to relax and get a burger, though the menu has much more.

The beer selection is good but Utica Club is a good get here.

Indoor and outdoor seating.

Staff friendly and food was yummy.
Gotta try the shepherds pie next?

Thank you?

Great atmosphere. Visiting from out of town. We went for lunch, felt like a neighborhood place, and we were welcomed and treated really well. Bartender was clearly working super hard to take care of everyone. Guinness was perfect. Good was delicious. All 3 of us loved it! Highly recommend!

Dined there for lunch, food and drinks were great, service a bit slow but they were quite busy. My half/half (Guinness/Harp was poured to perfection) and really enjoyed the fish fry. Looking forward to our next visit there with friends!

I’ve had it with this place. I understand when you’re closing early. But telling someone on their birthday “You don’t care whose birthday it is… when I get home it’s my birthday too.”I’ve had it. Won’t be there tomorrow and the business I was bringing won’t be either. DISAPPOINTED IS NOT THE WORD. I eat here for lunch, I enjoy dancing with my friends. This behavior and the way staff act is not professional. I swear I’m gonna start recording them.

The food and the service was great . Unfortunately we picked a night when they were hosting a company Christmas party upstairs so it was extremely loud in there . Couldn’t even talk to my husband because we couldn’t hear each other. I would definitely go back another time when it might be a bit
