Brett GarwoodJanuary 13, 2016Not too bad of a place. Love the decor and feel of the restaurant. Outdoor seating looked great for warm months. Pot pie was not as great as expected, but the buffalo wing spring rolls were amazing.
Tom HoganSeptember 12, 2014Nice, moderately priced pub fare geared toward an American palette. Try the meatloaf, chicken pot pie, lobster pie, Shepard pie and of course, the fish and chips.
Wendy DMarch 13, 2018Charming beautiful tavern on the river. Food is always great...black truffle meatloaf is a winner as well as the burgers
Bob WebbSeptember 17, 2016Burgers, chicken pot pie, and appetizers all great; many other foods looked great but we couldn't eat everything in one visit
Nikki WegnerAugust 1, 2020Steaks, lobster roll app, coconut shrimp. Delicious food. Outdoor seating and fireplace
Jamie BachmanSeptember 2, 2014Cool place, beer is good, calamari and Korean wings were very good. Asked for the burger medium rare and got it well done. 😕
Amazing fish and chips, great menu. Have the Poire Belle Helene for dessert.
💕Linds💕October 15, 2011The vegan burger is amazing! The spinach is something new and delicious. The service was really good even though they're really busy. Loved it!- Awesome food, but too damn dark for dinner. Everyone had their phone flashlights out to read the menus. There's ambiance and then stupid.
Great food! Beautiful atmosphere! Excellent all around!!
Sam .September 29, 2012This place is amazing! Great food, great atmosphere, great service, and great Greygoose Martini's!
- Scott SpencerJune 4, 2014Cool place, but not very welcoming. On the other hand, there aren't many choices in this neck of the woods. The fried oyster appetizer was adequate.
Jason PelishJuly 11, 2013DON'T get the Lobster Pie. It's just a pastry crust over a smallish bowl of lobster bisque. Maybe I got the bottom of the barrel but there was no lobster in mine. The owner was rude when I showed him.
The Shepard's Pie is out of this world! Definitely a top 10 dish.
- Craig ThompsonNovember 5, 2011Bonnie and the rest of the staff are SO nice! Food and atmosphere are great
