“Okay, you have to understand that this is not your typical 5-star location. There are no white tablecloths, no polished silverware, no high-falutin waitstaff with perfectly intoned delivery of the evening's specials. And that's freaking awesome. Because Revel House is the kind of pub you WANT to find when you're near a university (it's close to Austin Peay), you want to hear some live music, and you want some delicious food in a relaxed atmosphere. How relaxed? Well, Dawn asked my name and used it the rest of the night like we were related. In fact, I've had evenings with relatives (ones I liked, BTW) that were less comfortable than my night in Revel. Not only did I get to chime in on a few fun debates during the course of the night, but I was also invited to try a slice of one regular's thoughtful gift of a savory and a sweet bread, made a part of a conversation about a gifted belt, and shared dog photos with the cook, who has an adorable pup who is currently a little under the weather. I was fully embraced by the family, and it was such a wonderful evening that I was compelled to share it with my son via texts as I was experiencing it. Oh! I forgot to mention the drinks: poured generously. The food: prepared flavorfully. The music: played harmoniously. BRING CASH. This is not a plastic place, in any way. It's real, through and through. Loved it. Will return. ?“
