We’ve been going to this restaurant for quite a few years and have always enjoyed the food and friendly service. We just want to give a shout out to who we consider is a very good server that makes you feel welcomed as soon as you enter the establishment until you leave. Thank you Ashlee for your exceptional service.

First time at 1 church st. Had a great pasta dish and really enjoyed the atmosphere. Service was good on a Sunday evening. We were celebrating my girlfriend's birthday and we all really enjoyed our time there. Great local spot everyone should check out.

For prices, had a very filling and tasty pasta dish and 2 pints. Pasta was around $22 which seemed reasonable for what I got. Spent just over $50 with tax and tip.

Returned to the bar for the third time in the past few weeks this past Thursday.
Food was fine, some of the wings were cool and some were hot but overall no issue. The problem was I couldn’t tell the server.
Other than taking my order, which I almost had to chase her down from the bar to get her to do, and then waiting while she finished a somewhat long conversation with another customer for my bill, she summarily ignored me and my daughter. Not a bit of effort on her part. Sad that the only way I could communicate my displeasure with the server was to leave 10%. Used to be you left nothing

It will be awhile before I return. Sad as the other servers here are great.

The food was excellent, the problem is the length of time it takes for someone to actually come and take a drink order. I would suggest ordering your food at the same time. Went for lunch and only one server to be seen. This is the only gig in town at the moment. They need another server and the kitchen is slow. Overall a 3 because of the wait. Staff are friendly but could put on some proper serving clothing.

Four of us went to have a drink and some food. We ordered wings, nachos, and the meat platter.

It wasn’t busy but food took 40 mins to get. Wings were decent, but the nachos were cold stale, and made with “cheese wiz”.

The meat platter was heated with the microwave. The brisket came out greyish and was rubbery which is an indicator of being overly warmed up. We cook a lot of smoked meat and for something to be indicated on the menu as “new” you would think there would be pride in the meal.

There was an Indian guy at the bar who was defining on something. He was continuously pacing the bar and in the bathroom half a dozen times. He and the cook were in the back kitchen together which really threw us off. Completely inappropriate!

The server was nice but nothing she could have done differently.
We will definitely not go back which is unfortunate because it could be so much more.
So unfortunate.

4 of us got there on a Friday night (not my choice) only 2 servers, bad thoughts going through my head. The place was rapidly filling. We received our drinks, food orders taken, food orders delivered surprisingly quick, drinks refilled. Food was delicious. Servers never broke a sweat, worked efficiently as they get. We will be back.

Always a good time here. The staff are fast and friendly, the prices are good, and the frequent events like trivia keep things lively. The food also seems to have markedly improved over the last year or two
