Folks here get paid a living wage. They won't let you tip and there's really no reason to close out.

Punch Jeff in the crotch and tell him to stop cock blocking. We get it, you're the brewer!! Geez.
Michael HernandezMarch 9, 2013
Dorks for clientele. Boring, plain, run of the mill white people. But the brews make up for the lack of interesting in this spot.

Sigh...This is a pub. Don't bring your kids here.
Susan ZochJune 14, 2013
Maybe paying in advanced and no incentive with tipping is the cause of the poor service. Not impressed with good or service. Avoid the fish and chips.
