We visited the pub for a trial run with a small group, service and food were great. We came back the next night with a large group of 25, service was fantastic, had a private room and server who handled us all efficiently and with a smile.

This is a great place to go for lunch or dinner. They have a large selection of draft beer. And always have a few local micro beers on tap. The owners and staff are friendly and serve is always excellent.
