My wife and I stopped by for brunch during our day out. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. We had a wonderful experience and left feeling very happy. We will definitely be back!

Most memorable dish was the mac and cheese appetizer! Also tried the fish and chips (a bit bland and greasy), filet mignon sandwich (loved the salad dressing), and potatoe gnocchi (nice texture). There was a lot of seating space and can go outside or inside

Very fun environment, came here to watch one of the World Cup games while on a trip and to me it was the best place in town having seen the other alternatives. Great atmosphere and the staff are amazing and quick. The drinks are strong for a great price .

We stopped in for a quick beer and apps, and I really liked this place. It's small, but has a good vibe and it's right on Witherspoon so it's easily accessible. The bar is not very big, so if it's busy, you're probably not getting a seat there. They have a LOT of brews on tap - I counted around 50 or so! We had a couple of beers and two apps: The Dublin Spring Rolls and the oyster special. Both were VERY good. I'd definitely come back and try a few more options from the menu. Overall, this place had a great, lively vibe, good bartenders, good menu an reasonable prices. I would definitely come back here.
