Anytime I'm in the area I make sure I stop by this place. The food is amazing from top to bottom, prices are always reasonable. There's a great atmosphere no matter what the time of day. Can't say enough good things about the staff, they're always personable and great to talk to. If you ever stop by and Ali or Evan are in make sure you say hi! Although they'll probably beat you to the punch! Great people

The local is a great place to grab a pint or have a bite to eat. The patios are always bustling. The upstairs patio complete with TVs are a great place to watch any sports event. The servers and management staff are super friendly and always eager to hell you out. Ali, who tends the bar, is an absolute delight and is full of great conversation. Evan keeps all the patrons happy and regularly checks up on customers satisfaction. The food is also wonderful with a wide selection of tasty treats, I recommend the steak sandwich M... read more

Great menu any time of day. The brunch is especially delicious. I love to get the egg sandwich. The menu is fairly short but each offering is pretty delicious and fresh. I appreciate that they do their buns in house for their burger. They completely changed the space as it was once a bank. It is a beautiful space to relax in and we love going to the top floor for the deck. The fish tacos I have also enjoyed. The lower level can be a bit loud though just a heads up.

Downstairs is very, very loud if it's busy--music is fairly loud, and people's voices reverb around the room, so it can be hard to hear the people you're actually with. Food was pretty good, though. Szechuan edamame was tasty, but lacking much spice (and what spice there was was unevenly distributed). The tuna club had great flavors, but the ingredients weren't distributed very evenly across the sandwich, either. Yam fries were delicious--perfectly crispy outside, soft inside, and the lemon mayonnaise they came with was very... read more

Been here two times and both times was for a company private party. The private parties were held upstairs and they have a nice rooftop patio as well. For these parties, we have set menus with finger food. Of the two times I've been there, the food was average. I had nachos, wings and tacos and the chicken wings and pulled pork tacos were dry. It's a good place to go if you're in the area because there isn't really much around that area.

Anna N. (Russian) really makes this place. Server/bartender/goddess/I don't even know, but you would think she owns the place with her bedside manner. Incredible. A gem. A rarity to have so much attention paid to you at a pub. This girl is going places and I would follow her wherever she went.

Food was good. Nachos were great, as is the That Crispy Chicken sandwich. The #1 Tuna Poke needed more tuna. Service was friendly but negligent. We weren't given water until we asked for water and we were only 2 minutes away from getting a discount for our nachos (we were supposed to get discounts after 9pm). We still had to pay the full price for the nachos, even after bringing it up to the server. If it were up to me, I would have given a manual discount because it was only 2 minutes away from the discount.

I like the easy going neighborhood vibe of this pub. There are plenty of seats both inside and outside, so you can choose if you want your sun exposure for the day or not. We came on a Saturday afternoon hoping to catch the soccer game and thankfully they had several large television screens which were visible from pretty much any seat on the floor. We sat at the bar, were promptly served our drinks and the staff checked in every so often to make sure were were okay. Extra star for the diversity of patrons and the staff'... read more

This was my first time here after driving past it countless times. We randomly stopped to finally try it out and weren't disappointed. Has 2 floors with the upstairs being a rooftop patio, a rustic "local" vibe, and an open kitchen concept upstairs. To eat I tried the fish tacos which were surprisingly delicious! I kind of always expect the best but prepare for the worst eating tacos outside a non- Mexican restaurant due to past experiences, but I really enjoyed them. They were 2 decent sized tacos, seasoned to perfection w... read more
