What People Say

Regulars and visitors alike rave about the unique interior—think secret bookcase doors, candlelit corners, and gothic flair. The food gets solid praise for being generously portioned and satisfying, with favorites like burgers, loaded fries, and pub classics. Many reviewers also highlight the great value and the pub’s ability to stay fun without being too loud or overwhelming.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the quirky decor, while fun, could use a bit of TLC in spots. It can also get crowded on weekends, especially before major events—so arrive early if you want a table. And while the pub is casual and relaxed, don’t expect fine dining service; this is all about comfort and character.
