Had some lunch with my family recently and received amazing service from Molly. She was quick and efficient, polite and helped us choose from a wide range of beer and ales. We ended up settling on a tropical IPA which was a great recommendation! The pub was not too busy and a calm atmosphere during lunch. Will definitely be visiting again soon :)

We had a great time here! Scott the barman did an exceptional job doing an impromptu beer tasting for our friend visiting from the Netherlands. We really appreciate the effort he went to!

The fried fish was large and delicious, but the chips were nothing special. The interior is cute and has a some nice beers. Service was pretty slow. Very expensive but a solid lunch spot.
