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
Did our co-worker's baby shower here. Finally had the much raved about fish tacos. And damn those are good! So yeah, baby shower, a ton of people. Had gifts and we brought cake which they kindly set aside for us. One of my coworkers caught the girl serving us roll her eyes when we had asked for the cake box back. Lol I get it. Sorry for holding up your table. Still 4 stars for the great atmosphere and awesome food. Cant wait for the summer time. The patio is going to be awesome.

Hi Sam, Romantic could work. We are going after the Industrial look but I will take romantic. But the main goal is to be the local gem like you said. Next time you are in ask for me and I would like to buy you a drink. Thank You, Evan Stewart General Manager
A somewhat regular lunch place given I work nearby. Colleague and I ordered Fish and Chips, some what disappointed, way more batter than fish and very greasy. Not up to the usual standards from Local. Service is friendly and efficient

Hi Shari, the team loved this review. I was wondering is there anything we can do better to change your review to a 5 star. If you have any suggestions email me and I would love to buy you a round of drinks to say thank you. (estewart@localpubliceatery.com) Evan Stewart General Manager
Seat yourself. Literally. Go inside and just sit okay. There will always be someone there to help you. This place becomes all types of crowds. Families after a game, seniors, hipsters, young whipper snappers looking for drinks... everyone is welcome. Their menu is that little folded square on the table. There's a variety of things to pick from but not many. Enough that you'll find something to eat but not be overwhelmed. You will be by the wine and drink options though. I got the fish and chips. (The fish isn't real.... read more

Finally came here for a team fitness outing. We had drinks and appetizers to start. It was your typical bar food, nothing special. We we wanted more food so we each ordered their Local Burger. It was good but a little on the greasier side making it difficult to eat. The sweet potato fries were good though so substitute it for your regular fries if you like this! One another minus star for coming to this place is that the parking is very limited. It's located right at the corner in a tiny parking lot with only 10 spots? So yo... read more

Hi Sharon, Thank you so much for the feedback. My team is constantly looking to improve. I understand parking is limited in the small parking lot we have and I wish it was at least 3 times the size. Hope to see you soon as I would love to buy you a beer for providing the feedback. Thank You, Evan Stewart General Manger
On my first visit here I had the ahi tuna sandwich. I thought it was really good, but could've improved somewhat if the grill had been hotter for the searing. A great tuna steak has a bit of the crispiness and caramelization on the crust, but then you want the softness and coolness to reach pretty quickly below that. I felt it mine here wasn't quite seared, but then cooked a bit too much in the middle. That said, it wasn't too off and I liked everything in the sandwich. I tried a bite of my friend's burger and it didn't come... read more

Hi Jonathan, I am grateful for the detailed review. I will be sharing it with my team. Next time you are in the area I would love to buy you a beer. Evan Stewart General Manager
What a great experience! Friday night at 6:00 with 3 kids and the hostess sat us as fast as possible. She brought the kids coloring pages and the waitress came to take an order for the kids within minutes (I wasn't even seated yet). Kids ordered chicken fingers and fries, they finished it all ( never happens). Ordered the veggie burger which was loaded with yummy fresh veg. Local burger with cheese was very filling and delicious. Kids went to play at the shuffle board table while I paid. A very successful dinner, rare with ... read more
