Customer Reviews
Great atmosphere and service. Staff was friendly and attentive. Food was great. Ham ball tots are amazing and my grandson loves his kid's meal pizza. Can't wait for a full menu soon.
The Public House & Lounge is truly a gem! The owners are welcoming and genuinely care about their guests, which you can feel the moment you walk in. They also make a real effort to support our community by sourcing as much as they can locally — something that makes dining here feel even better. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. The food is absolutely wonderful — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared every time. And the atmosphere? Comfortable, inviting, and perfect whether you’re stopping in for a casual meal or celebrating something special. We’re so lucky to have such a great local restaurant in our community. Highly recommend!
First time there last night. The place is beautiful. We had a great waitress, very attentive. It did take awhile to get food but we had great company so it was okay! The food was very very good. I was surprised no entrees but that was okay. This might have been the best fish I have ever had. The appetizers were a 10 out of 10. Yes I would highly recommend eating here. We will be back
Good food, great atmosphere, excellent staff. Will definitely return!
The atmosphere is awesome- it's so nice to be able to go have a drink or dinner in a fun place! I've always been happy with my service and food! Check it out.
