We eat at Macs a few times/month and I can honestly say we have never been disappointed. The favorite in our house, the spicy raspberry boneless wings. They recently added (a few months ago) a new roast beef sub - DELISH. Grab a buffalo chicken dip out of the cooler to go. It's great reheated for a quick snack for the fam.

It was a busy Friday night but we had no problem getting a table at 6:00 pm. My wife ordered a personal 10â pizza with sausage, green peppers and mushrooms. The toppings dominated the pie! The sausage was large chunks of meat. The crust was nicely done. She said it was among the best pizza she has ever eaten. It was so large for a small pizza that she brought half of it home. I sampled it and agree that it was a very good pie. I had deep fried oysters with Mac and cheese and stewed tomatoes, also very good. The next time I want to try their meat lovers pizza. It should be good.
3. Bull Pen Restaurant & Lounge
Reviewed By QueenieGypsy
Rumors swirled for years about The Bull Pen being sold. It finally happened. The only familiar face was Harry Sickler at the bar having a drink. We stopped in after not being there for few months. The hostess was pleasant until she saw that we were taken aback by the extreme change in the surroundings. I asked to see a menu before we decided to stay for lunch. That's when she got a bad attitude and it was downhill from there. Even our waitress was dismissive of us. We've been going to the Bull Pen since the early 1970s. It was shocking to see the place so different. The hostess should have understood and smiled and welcomed us to the new Bull Pen. Instead she got a negative attitude. The menu looked fine but much more limited, which I understand. BUT, the place is cold, cold, cold. The walls are painted grey, all the sports memorabilia is gone - moved to a future Tyrone sports museum - and the wait staff are all new. Not one familiar face except for Harry. Even the customers are different. The food was meh... nothing special. Beer prices were raised $1.00. Nothing special, nothing outstanding, nothing familiar which is why one went to the Bull Penn to begin with. Good luck to them, but we'll never go back.
