Nancy Hannell: Asparagus frites are amazing and only $3.50 at happy hour
ZAGAT: Vegetarians can find a fair amount of selections on the menu, and the back patio is great during warm weather (it’s also often quieter than the main room).
Charles Edge: Hmmmm, do I want the fish and chips or just a stout?!?!?
John Sullivan: 23 HD TVs, 36 taps and really good gastro pub food. Great place for lunch and Jenny the waitress is super cool.
Heather: The live music on Friday nights is amazing. And don't forget to order one of Chef Joe's incredible selections off the menu. The Sonny's burger w/ a homemade veggie patty is one of my favs!
