The server here was very rude. I went up to her and I said hey. I've been waiting about 15-20 minutes for a steak salad and we even had like no cucumbers, no tomatoes. It was just steak and salad. I waited over 25 minutes for a steak salad. Not to mention the server was absolutely rude, after I asked her she said hey I'll get a manager and I said no. I don't want a manager. She did it anyway with a very rude tone..
I came in to pick up a pizza, feeling quite hungry and thirsty. I stood at the front entrance clearly waiting, but the staff didn’t acknowledge me at all. Instead, they continued serving other customers with drinks and didn’t offer even a simple “we’ll be right with you.” As an Asian woman, I couldn’t help but feel invisible in that moment. It was uncomfortable and frustrating. A little acknowledgment would have gone a long way. I hope the staff can be more aware and welcoming to everyone in the future.I have enjoyed the service and food up until today and hope everyone has a pleasant experience.
This restaurant has a warm, family-friendly atmosphere, with lively conversations filling the air. As you enter, there’s a bar area to the right. The staff were all smiles and very welcoming. We had the Breakfast Sandwich ($15) and French Toast ($11) with two added eggs (+4). Everything was delicious!🤤

Good food friendly service
Kelli was great! The beet salad with chicken was an awesome lunch suggestion. Looking forward to coming back for drinks.
A great place for eating or holding an event. They have quieter a big selection for a pub, including some crazy but delicious dishes like nacho tots. They have a room in the back that’s great for holding get together and meetings, and they can cater for the event.
I've eaten here a handful of times and the staff are great and the atmosphere comfortable, but the kitchen doesn't live up to the prices. Pizza has a fairly prominent place on their menu and what came out was fairly tasteless and undercooked. Burgers were not much better.
Had a lunch for four here. We had the Tennessee Nashville hot chicken sandwichs, a small pizza, and salads.
The food was really good, and the service was friendly. Not particularly fast though despite the place being almost empty. If you only have an hour for lunch I would strongly recommend you tell them this when you arrive. My soup was cold because after they dropped the food off we never saw them again to ask for a spoon for a solid 20 minutes.
Still, they were friendly and I’m sure this was a minor oversight. I will certainly return.
Writing this review makes me so sad, as I used to come here all the time as a kid and only ever had good memories.
Upon arriving, the host seemed very unfriendly and rolled her eyes at us. I wouldn’t have minded this but it took 10’ for a server to bring us water and take our order. My boyfriend was still looking at the menu and I had already ordered. He let the server know he’ll order in a bit but she didn’t come and take his order or ask if he wanted anything. Our spinach and kale dip came out and it was very very very bad. It tasted like a can of queso plus a few shreds of kale and water. It also only came with 4 small slices of bread. It was so bad that my boyfriend said he lost his appetite. Not only this but the drink came out the same time as my food?
I wanted salt for my burger and tried making contact with 3 people and each attempt failed.
The burger was very juicy and delicious though just lacked some salt. Finally, our server came when I was already almost done and I got my salt… She was very absent and did not make it a good experience for us.
I hope Bethany public house improves as this place is a staple in the neighborhood!
A little pricey but food was delicious- so worth it...
Had California burger and fish n chips with fries and onion rings.
Worth knowing is the batter for rings and fish are made daily, they are NOT frozen and you can definitely taste it . And the service was fantastic!
Very cozy place and I will return.

I ordered from grubhub and the price went from 9 dollars to $ 10.35 for the kids mac and cheese. Why would you change the kids mac and cheese to just noodles and cheese, raise the price and not say anything. It was just noodles and grated cheese it was not cavatapi noodles likw before and zero sauce like before.Talk about going downhill. I'm never ordering here again.
Biscuits and gravy are horrible
Never received a drink refill.
I have come to this place for years, and seen the business grow and change from owner to owner. I am very happy to report that the new owners from Lazy Days Brewing have really turned this place around and made MASSIVE improvements to what is offered. The beer selection is even better, and the food is made fresh and from scratch every day. We met one of their owners Ryan during our last visit, and he was such a personable real guy that listened to all of our feedback, which turned into such a fun organic conversation. I highly recommend the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, paired with some steak cut fries that are made fresh every day. I also love that they have at least one sour on tap every time I come here, take note sour fans as they are hard to find during the winter months, and these guys always deliver! Well done Lazy Days!!
I have frequented this pub space for about 3 years now. I would admit, there was a lull at one point in regards to their food, not being the freshest. However, the last few times I've come in, the food has made a turn. Menu change to be tighter, and FRESH! On my most recent visit, I learned that there is new ownership, and they made the decision to make their food from scratch!! You can taste it! Fabulous sandwiches, wraps, burgers, and pizza! Not to mention some great brews on tap!
Looks like they changed ownership, and the menu - both to the detriment of the customer! Waited 20 mins to have the waitperson bring a beer to our table, with the place almost empty! So had to get up and get one myself from the bar. Wait staff simply doesn't know what they are doing. Barbecue wraps are gone, and the fish and chips is well, fish ok, but the most tasteless fries ever served in a restaurant! Ugghh, too bad, this place just took a giant leap downward.
