Love my guy Ryan! Awesome place quick service for football on Sundays with every game!!
Our last visit was at 6:30 Saturday. We thought we were early to beat the crowd. The place was packed. We didn't wait long but service and the kitchen was slower than usual. Overall we love the place and is one of our local regular places to eat and Drink at.
The grasshopper was so good. The food came out really quick and they did not disappoint me or my family one bit. The burger was cooked exactly how I wanted. The service was perfect and made sure they have everything right. I recommend this place 100 percent.
If you're looking for a down to earth place with great food and service, this is it. Good choice of beers on tap as well. Recommended.
We popped in randomly and found a great Irish Pub. Great finding a barman who knows how to draw a proper Guiness! Food was great and the atmosphere is perfect. Very happy we found it!
