Bought tickets to a Halloween event and this was one of the bars. Was really disappointed by two of the other bars but this one was great. Super friendly bartenders. Definitely going to come back during the holidays to have dinner and drinks.

Wife and I had dinner here and loved it 😋. We split a fish and chips dinner and had the cheesesteak spring rolls on the side. The cheesesteak spring rolls with Sriracha sauce is a miracle in food preparation. They are better and great! The fish was tender with a crispy beer batter crust, spicy tartar sauce, it came with steak fries that were soo good. The peas had to be fresh because they were perfectly cooked with a little crunch and not soggy like canned peas. Great beer and liquor selection and a great happy hour pricing before 7:00. The men and women working there are all great and make it a great place to go!

Found this establishment while walking though the district on a hot smuggy Friday night after just getting into town. Were treated to wonderful, reasonably priced food and drink in a thankfully well air-conditioned setting. They have a great selection of beers on tap. Had my first authentic philly cheesesteak which was delicious. Friendly staff. A REAL treat.

We needed a place to kill time before our flight. So we just walked to this place because it was near our hotel. The service was great, and so was the food. I had the cheese teak and it was great and so were the fries. Tasty and not normal fries. Very crispy. Great beer selection.

Stopped in for dinner and a drink. We were kindly greeted and told to pick any table. We ordered mozzarella sticks for our appetizer, and they came out quick and piping hot. For dinner, chicken tenders, fries, and philly steak. Everything was hot, fresh, and tasty. The portion sizes are generous, and the fries came with Sriracha aioli, which was delicious. The service was also stellar, 5 stars all around. Can't wait to come back.

Decent pub food but and fair prices for some menu items like the meatball sub, but overall just meh at best in comparison to similar restaurants and pubs. Fries were above average.

Service Fee: There is a 4% service fee that I do not recall being mentioned anywhere on the menu or signage (but I am writing this a few weeks after visiting so may have missed-remembered). For a party of two that ends up being an about $1-2 fee

I was there last night just to use the bathroom. The security guard wouldn't let me or my sister in because he can smell liquor on me. First I didn't even drink yet because we just got there. And that was one of the first places we went. I feel like he was discriminating against me because he let two females that wasn't of color in and they was clearly drunk. I will never come here again. 0 stars all the way around.
