    We arrived a little early. Checked in no problem they took us right to our table. We sat upstairs and the waitress came right over. She was amazing. Her name was Shannon D. She was so pleasant, friendly efficient, and overall an asset to the restaurant. Food was delicious and the pricing was excellent. We will definitely eat there again.

    Really great pub. Reason priced lunch. Not super busy so that may have made service better and noise lower but staff was friendly and food came quickly. Comfortable spot. Would definitely go back.
