★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Tenebris Somnium · Jul 2025

Met friends here to have a good time. Which we did however I was excited to try the fried pickles yet the ranch they served tasted rancid. I don't know what they put in it or if it was just bad. But it was horrible. The pickles were seasoned great though. I had a chicken wrap. It was ok, nothing to wow about. The pub was crowded, it seemed like a popular place. I wouldn't mind going back for the fried pickles as long as I brought ranch from home.

Great small town family bar/grill. I couldn’t believe it, but the brisket was the best I’ve ever had, and I’ve eaten BBQ all over the country and the world. The brisket is steak cut, and so tender. I got the sweet bbq sauce and the spicy sauce to go with it. Both were excellent, and the spicy wasn’t really spicy. The potato salad was creamy and tasty, and the seasoned fries were good too. I had a bite of my girlfriend’s Hawg Wings, and they were delicious too. Cannot recommend this place enough!!!

★★★★★ 5.0 Rob Hardcastle · Jul 2025

The food is great! Had the BBQ shoe and would recommend it to everyone. Service was good but we were there during the "get ready for dinner rush" so it was a little slow but not bad at all. They definitely have a bar feel so if you're not into that there are "to go" options.

Catfish was really good! Sides were excellent! Sweet tea even delicious!

The food was really great, I had the brisket with beans and cole slaw with the sweet and spicy type bbq (I can not remember the actual flavor) accompanied by a couple of blue moon. The service was awesome with courteous waitresses. My only impasse is that for a bar it was incredibly quiet with muted televisions and no audible music playing; this may be a plus for some but I enjoy the sound ambience!
