Great experience. Huge bar and plenty of seats. Bartender was very nice and attentive. It was kinda busy and yet she never forgot about me. The food was great. Just didnt understand how i ordered sweet peppers and got green peppers. Other than that i loved the place. Clean bathrooms and great convo with the locals.

This is the third time I've been there in the outdoor patio. Our waitress was excellent she kept the beers flowing and last night they had some sort of country dancing which was cool. I will definitely be back again great place

Fantastic steaks! We were on vacation looking for dinner. We like to go where locals go, you know the food is going to be good. Did not disappoint.

Players may not be for everyone, but it is for us. It's a bar with regulars. Sports on TV, decent pub food is all we can ask for, but there's nothing chain about it. The beer nuggets we a good vessel to soak up the beer so I recommend those. Our server, Victoria, did pretty well. I like the place and would go back.

Food was killer. Got the southwest egg rolls and potato skins first. Both were so good. Meatball sub and tots were great. So was the cajun pasta. Keep it up guys.

This is a classic sports bar. Loud music, a dj, an outdoor area with bar. The food was bar food, but it had some nice variety and intriguing options. I felt the portions were good for the price, and actually large than similar establishments. All the food came out quickly, and everything was really good.

We made a last minute call with a group of 15 for a team dinner. This pub and grill was very accommodating and the food was excellent. The bar has plenty of TVs for viewing multiple sports and games on the patio to keep the boys entertained. The food was great for a relaxed venue and inexpensive price point. Everything from the potato skins to the sandwiches and burgers tasted great.

I went to this pub and grill last night and had a blast. The waitresses and the bartenders were awesome, extremely friendly and accommodating. Always ready to provide a beverage or food. The beer was fresh, and the chopped chicken salad was out of this world.To my surprise they were showing the UFC fight which was outstanding! I highly recommend this establishment.

This place is awesome. You can bet on mostly any kind of sport. We where going to Sybaris and stopped here for a few drinks and some food while waiting for check in. The wings where delicious and the service was great. I would have giving them 5 stars but they didn't have pizza which i heard is pretty good. I really liked the memorabilia all over the place and the bathroom was clean. Looking forward to visiting again.
