What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I ordered from uber eats so I can’t comment on the service and atmosphere. Most of the food I ordered was great and the portion sizes matched what I paid for. However, tell me why I paid $12 for vegan chocolate coconut cake, expecting a normal sized slice of cake, and got this bite sized nonsense? I kid you not, it was smaller than the palm of my hand. It’s shameful that it was $12."
"The atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming, exuding a cozy Irish-British style. The pub was adorned with extensive oak and mahogany, featuring sturdy traditional wooden tables with dark finishes. High back stools lined the bar, and on this particular Sunday evening, there was a nice little crowd and everyone seemed to be having a good time. We decided to order the seitan wings, vegan nachos, and a vegan cheesesteak, along with two mocktails. The wings and the nachos arrived together, but we found the wings to be overly crispy and hard, with a dry inside that made them difficult to eat. After requesting for them to be fried for half the time, the wings came back out much better - crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and paired perfectly with a hot honey sauce, vegan ranch, and fresh cut celery and carrot sticks as sides. The vegan nachos were generously piled high and layered with vegan chorizo, tomatoes, black beans, cheese sauce, and cilantro. About halfway through the nachos, we realized the absence of guacamole and vegan sour cream. The server promptly apologized and brought out the missing sides, along with the cut limes we had requested, as is common with nacho orders. As for the vegan cheesesteak, we had planned to take a bite and save the rest for later. It tasted good, but we felt that the bread should have been toasted. After a quick stint in the air fryer, the roll came out perfect - crusty on the outside with a soft cheesy inside and tender seitan meat. Complementing our meal were the mocktails - the Arnold Schwartz with cucumber, lemonade, and iced tea, missing the mint that would have elevated the drink, and the refreshing Peter Cetera with lime juice, vanilla grapefruit, and club soda. Our server and host were both accommodating and took care of the adjustments we requested. We left with plans to return, noting how the menu looked much better online and the tempting specials they offer during the week - like the six dollar smash burgers and various dinner specials. Check it out!"
"Came for the vegan food- did NOT disappoint. Really beautiful old style bar inside with woo accents & tin ceiling. It really feels like a historic bar. Cozy & welcoming. All of our vegan food was amazing! Seitan wings- super crispy but tender inside. Lathered in delicious BBQ sauce served with vegan ranch! Vegan cheesesteak- the roll was fresh. Tons of seasoned seitan with vegan cheese sauce, onions & peppers. It was really delish! Ordered a side of onion rings because let’s be real- onion rings are the best part of bar food! The onion rings were delicious, crispy & so yummy! They also have a IMPRESSIVE bar selection for bourbon/whiskey lovers. Like, an entire menu devoted to it. Come for the cozy small bar vibes, good food & drinks. Enjoy the atmosphere !"
"Good food and a nice, relaxing atmosphere. We went on Easter for dinner. We both enjoyed our dinner and had the chocolate mousse for desert. Service was a bit slow, but they were probably just short staffed. They had an amazing assortment of liquor."
"I recently had the pleasure of enjoying brunch at this amazing bar and restaurant, and I have to say—it was one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. From the moment we were seated, our waiter, Alex, completely elevated the experience with his professionalism, attentiveness, and genuine enthusiasm for making sure we had a great time. We were there for the bottomless mimosa brunch, and Alex truly made it bottomless in every sense of the word. Not once did our glasses sit empty—he seemed to appear at just the right moment with a cheerful smile and a perfectly poured refill. It never felt rushed or mechanical; instead, it felt like he genuinely cared about ensuring we enjoyed every minute of our meal. What stood out the most was how Alex balanced attentiveness with a relaxed, easygoing vibe. He checked in just enough to make sure we had what we needed, but never to the point of interrupting conversation or making us feel hurried. He also had a great sense of timing—our food arrived promptly, hot, and beautifully presented. When we had a couple of quick questions about menu items, he answered confidently and even made thoughtful recommendations that turned out to be spot-on. Throughout the brunch, Alex kept the atmosphere light and friendly, creating that perfect mix of laid-back and elevated that makes brunch feel special. It was clear he enjoys what he does and takes pride in providing top-tier service. By the time we left, my friends and I were already talking about when we’d come back—and that’s entirely thanks to Alex. He turned what could have been a standard brunch into a truly memorable experience. If you’re planning to visit, ask for Alex—he’ll make sure your bottomless mimosa brunch lives up to its name and then some."
