Reviews
The description of the restaurant and the atmosphere gave off British pub vibes with its logo and decor, which set certain expectations. However, the menu and service leaned more toward American gastropub than traditional British. My wife ordered the Fish and Chips, a house special, and our server helpfully clarified that the “chips” were seasoned fries, but they had american chips. She opted for sweet potato fries instead, which were tasty.
I was hoping for authentic English-style chips—thick-cut, soft-centered fries—but when I asked, our server wasn’t familiar with that style and explained their chips were house-made potato chips. Not a dealbreaker, just a mismatch between expectation and reality.
Overall, the food was enjoyable, the staff was friendly, and the vibe was relaxed. Just don’t go in expecting a full-on British pub experience. Still, a good spot for a casual dinner with friends.
If you’re heading to a performance and pressed for time, this is exactly the kind of reliable, easy option you want nearby. Chatham wins again.
Beer selection is decent, and overall it’s a good sports bar vibe place. Food is fine, nothing special but decent. I did enjoy my salad with added salmon.
Food is decent, too. The portabela fries were amazingly crispy and delicious. Unfortunately the boneless wings with chipotle apricot sauce was extremely bland and disappointing.
However, the dirty martini was good and made up for it!
Our meal was about as bad as I’ve ever had. YUCK!
Do better!
Fish and chips is a pass. When we got it it was not crunchy (soggy) but the fries were good! Fried pickles were ok, the sauce on the side is nice with a little spice.
Tenderloin sandwich was just ok, not a ton of flavor and since we got it breaded it was just too much bread.
Our friends liked their soft pretzels (especially the cinnamon sugar dip). And the buffalo dip was pretty good as well.
This is a solid space before a show as it’s super convenient and beer prices are pretty good as well. Likely to come back but will not get fish n chips or tenderloin sandwich. I’d say the food over all was a 3 but service was great so rounded up. I’d give it another try with different food items ☺️
This was my first visit and they were very busy, so the long wait for orders was completely understandable. After our orders were delivered by someone other than our server, no one ever returned to our table. My order was wrong, so I pushed the plate full of food to the side hoping our server would return – but she did not. A neighboring table that was waiting to pay finally asked another employee cleaning tables as to the whereabouts of the area’s server.
Overall it was a rough first impression. but if I return to the area, I will probably give them another try.
