    Delightful to arrive and find we were in a room all to our own. It worked great as we had out of town relatives to catch up with and they loved the Irish Pub. Our waitress was superb and so kind, patient and helpful. Thanks

    My husband and I had an enclosed room with lots of ambiance. The restuarant had at least 3 vegetarian dishes to choose from. The food was very good

    The restaurant was virtually empty, but our party waited a long time for the food to arrive. When it finally did, my husband's meal was cold; it almost appeared as though they had started preparing the order, but part of it was forgotten and everyone's meal was held back. Two of us had ordered the quinoa salad - the flavor was just off, the ingredients just didn't blend well together. Only one person in our party of four appeared to enjoy their meal, which was the fish and chips. Thank goodness an Irish Pub could get the fish and chips right.
