Good beer list. Friendly staff. A bit loud for conversation. My BLT sandwich had an odd taste, then I realized âmiracle whipâ Which I guess is chefâs discretion... but not my expectation. My companions got attentive guidance on their order choices. It IS a good place to meet a few friends for late food and beers.

None of my friends seemed interested? So we went with my wife's friend and her husband. Very Cute waitress (Alex?) also very helpful and attentive. I had the Yorkshire Dinner, both wives had Schnitzel, and other husband had a burger.Everyone loved their food...â¦..and they have an interesting and wide selection of beers. I had an Imperial Stout that was to die for! (actually had two) So I was very pleased with the beer, food & service. The was not happy with the overall appearance. It seems like the place is long overdue for a facelift. The seats in our booth where stained...â¦.it gives a very good restaurant an overall poor appearance......like no one is paying attention to the appearance of the tables / chairs / carpet; etc. Other than that...â¦..I loved and will return to try their famous fish fry.

We stepped in here yesterday evening from a very chilly sidewalk and were greeted and fed promptly. Our waiter Steven was very obliging and friendly. We had the Berkeley Burger and Pulled Pork Burger - both highly recommended. No shortage of food in this restaurant - make sure youâre hungry if you want to finish it all! Thanks for a wonderful meal.

After we finally got seated the waitress took forever and a day to take our order and she was not friendly at all. We waited a very long time for our food and in the meantime the waitress didn't stop by our table once to see if we needed anything or if we wanted refills on or beverages. Once the food finally came out we informed her she gave my boyfriend the completely wrong meal and reiterated what he did order. She looked at him as if he was lying, took the food and said it will be ready in a few. After another long wait she brings him yet again another completely wrong meal! We asked her what the problem was and she gave us a dirty look, took the plate and ran off. A few minutes later a manager came over and asked what happened. We explained and she didn't even take anything off the bill for what we did get and gave us a lousy $10 gift card. REALLY?!! Talk about adding insult to injury..like we would ever step foot in that overpriced place again. Not to mention the tables were pushed so close together you felt like you were dining with the strangers next to you.

Had dinner there with my wife, son and his fiance. Excellent food and service. I believe the prices are reasonable. There is not much of a "Pub" atmosphere but the bar area is very nice as is the atmosphere in the restaurant, which is very close to the bar. I concur with those who order the three course dinner. It is now $35 instead of $30, so I assume the increase was recent. Still a good value.

Cool spot overlooking the river in Rochester! It was packed with people. Food was ok, but certainly not gourmet. We all had a solid meal. Beer is all Genessee (well, itâs Rochester). âNuff said! Would absolutely come here again. Be prepared to wait , itâs busy on the weekends.
