I stopped in on “Black Friday” on my way to a medical appointment.
The Porterhouse Pub was open and had a few tables occupied, so there was no problem getting seated.
I noticed a bunch of slates with beer names and spotted a cider from Terramar advertising a Strawberry Rhubarb cider and decided I wanted to try that flavor combination. It was sweet with a little tart aftertaste.
For my meal I opted for the Porterhouse Cheese Curds as an appetizer and the Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich with fries for my main dish.
The cheese curds were nicely battered and fried and the housemade ranch was a nice accompaniment to the cheese curds.
The spicy crispy chicken sandwich was only crispy on the outside where the batter was applied! The rest of the chicken was tender and juicy. So tasty 😋. I didn’t think the sandwich was all that spicy, but that would be my fault because I eat jalapeno like candy and routinely use habanero hot sauce on my food. Even though I didn’t think it was all that spicy I did enjoy the flavor and crunch of the sandwich. There was a bunch of steak fries served with my sandwich. Excellent fries, but way too many for me to eat them all. I think I probably ate only 1/4 of them!!
I was very tempted to order a slice of the chocolate cheesecake with housemade fudge for dessert, but I was stuffed by my appetizer and meal.

I'm a proud Fish-n-Chips snob, and I must say theirs are really fantastic, down to the details. Crispy and not greasy. Same with the fries. Their tartar has a great flavor and is seasoned in a fairly unique way. Even the slaw is tasty. The beer selection is great as well, so I'm honestly ready to come back for dinner after eating there for lunch. Thank you! Generally speaking, this place has a great vibe too and friendly service, so I'll be back soon to try more of the menu.
Parking: Parking is a breeze on the off hours, but can get a little tight in peak/evening hours.

If you want a super casual place to hang out with friends and enjoy a bunch of different beers, ciders, wines this is a great spot. As an FYI, they do not serve cocktails. It can get a little bit noisy at full capacity, but when you're up for that energetic "vibe" it's a super fun spot! The food is great and the service has always been excellent. Cool people!

Haven't been this pissed off at a restaurant in a long time. Money hungry scumbags that don't know how to run a restaurant are charging $20 without tax or tip for a quarterpound cheeseburger. Fries tasted stale and gross too. Somehow more of a rip off than ski lodge food and that's saying something. Skip this place and go to temperate habits instead.

While visiting Mt Vernon, we stopped in for a quick bite and a couple of adult beverages. They had a good selection of beer and wine. We order Nachos, which were a total letdown. $19.95 plus $8,00 for a small amount of chicken. No care was taken to distribute the toppings. Just plopped on sporadically. If the chicken was any drier, it might have been considered "jerky"

Service was good. Chowder was good. The fish and chips were just okay. Like the lightness of the beer batter but it quickly became soggy and fell apart as it cooled. The fish was not seasoned and was bland.Hope to come back and try the other items on the menu.
