What reviewers say elsewhere

  • “The food here is phenomenal. The Irish egg rolls were packed full of big chucks of corn beef and the horseradish mustard with them really made them pop. The French onion soup had such a depth of flavor. Probably easily one of the best…”

  • “Seen a recommendation for the fish and chips. It does not disappoint, but come hungry. Oh and the cornbread was perfect.”
