Happy we could make reservations on a Friday night. Our guests really enjoyed the fish and chips. We had steak frites and gouda pasta. Nicely prepared and presented in a comfortable atmosphere. Ordered fish and chips to go and loved how well it was packed. Piper was appropriately attentive and pleasant!

Took my mother in law to lunch for her 90th birthday. She and my wife had the fish and chips. Both said it was delicious. I had a salad with grilled chicken. It was also very good. Service was great. Even talked the waiter into singing happy birthday with us. He was a very good sport about it. Different experience than I had back in the fall (September 2024).

The fish and chips are AMAZING! The Shepherd Pie was very good, and the chicken Kabobs were good too.It was a little noisy but what do you expect from an English Pub during the Olympics.

By far the best fish & chips in the city.My wife had the fish and garlic potatoes, yummy. The fish isn't just a piece of fish, it's a plank. I tried something new. I had the chicken and biscuits breakfast. I'm here to tell you it was fantastic, with 2 eggs over easy. Yum.

My husband and I stopped in The Pub for a quick lunch on a weekday. The atmosphere in this restaurant is like being transported to an old pub in the UK. They spared no expense with the design and fabulous woodwork throughout. The bar is an absolute masterpiece.As for the food, the fish and chips were fried to perfection. The fish was light and flakey, the batter was super-crispy and not at all greasy, served with a tangy tartar sauce. The grilled salmon was seasoned beautifully and cooked to a perfect medium.The staff was super-friendly, and nothing was too much trouble. They really made sure we had everything we needed at all times. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Just celebrated my 21st birthday here! Piper and Destiny were WONDERFUL, super on top of everything that our huge party was asking and more! They truly made the night run so much smoother and better than I could have imagined. Also an insane amount of bonus points because they remembered who ordered each drink in our part of 30, great communication! Jenna was also wonderful at the bar, was great at conversation and also pulled me again so the band could sing me happy birthday !

First time travelling with a pet (dog) looking for a place to stop and eat that was pet friendly. Went to a few establishments and would not clean off the tables outside for us. Stop at this location and not only was it pet friendly it was pet welcome. There was live music, wonderful patio, amazing service and excellent atmosphere. In addition to welcoming our pet, they provided us a pet menu to order for our dog and complementary water bowl. If you’re travelling with pets or looking for a great outside environment, this is an amazing stop.Locals are all also extremely friendly!
