Came for a surprise visit because we thought it was the restaurant before them, but we're glad we stayed because the food was excellent! We really enjoyed the fish and chips, with delicious slaw. The shepherd's pie was very tasty and filling. Also, we can't say no to the Reuben Egg Rolls - just had to have it. We'll come back for sure. Overall fantastic experience!

First time here and two of the appetizers they out of. So we ordered the Banger Rolls ($12) and the Guinness Stew($18) and we ordered a Guinness Cocktail flight called Walk the Plank ($12).
The Banger Rolls were flavorful but the puff pastry surrounding them was a little thick for my taste. These were the most flavorful bangers I’ve ever had. The Guinness Stew portion size was plentiful. It was served warm but not hot and was lacking flavor. The best thing about it was the dinner rolls served with it. A little Mrs Dash will do wonders with our leftovers we are taking home.
The Walk the Plank- each Guinness cocktail of course has Guinness and there were four of them. We tried theBlack and Blue, Black Velvet, Snakebite and Berry. Our favorite was the Black Velvet and we recommend this one.
Our server was Kylie and she was friendly and just as attentive as we needed and liked. Thank you Kylie.
We will return and try other menu items if they have them that day.

Great time and superb food. Sampled the IPA and it did not disappoint. The food... such great flavor, scotch eggs were great, corned beef & cabbage rolls were fabulous, and the Ruben was fantastic. The staff were bright and cheery with plenty of recommendations. We will be back 🙂 thank you!

Stopped in early for lunch shortly after opening (11am) on a Saturday. They do not have specials so no innovative dishes (waitress offered for us to order off the kids menu...which felt odd). Nice interior with wood furniture, booths and chairs are not padded. There is outdoor seating and a stage presumably for live music.

Potato and leek soup, very good on a cold afternoon.

Bangers and mash with mushy peas, never had this but it was delicious, sausage tasted bland but was cooked crispy. Mashed potatoes were perfect.

Ruben was excellent, corned beef was delicious, marbled rye was grilled to perfection. Side was the potato and leek soup.

One of the main reasons we went was the bailey's cheesecake, which they were out of, we had caramel apple cheesecake in place of, wasn't bad, just would not order again.

Verdict: I suggest to try it, while the mushy peas were weird, they were good. Will return, hopefully next time they will have the bailey's cheesecake.

Oh what a treat! I was on vacation a day a friend and I stopped by. Oh it did not disappoint! The corned beef cabbage rolls were all that I was hoping for! They brewed fresh coffee for an Irish Coffee and that bar tender knew something magical! Realtor Lady Tara absolutely recommends this place!

Completely different from graffiti Junction.
Nice fresh fish and chips. Corn beef on rye is wonderful with a great crunch and some really fresh bread. The mushy peas are fantastic as a side. Soda bread is very pleasant and it kind of reminds me of a cinnamon raisin bread but with chocolate instead of raisin. Makes a nice table snack and seven dollars even if you don’t love it. It was worth a shot. I would probably pay more for that loaf of bread at Publix, my server was awesome and very friendly . I will 100% repeat and I wish this business ton tons of success.

Okay so, the three stars may seem a bit odd when you see that I have 5 stars in all three other categories, food, service, and atmosphere. But the reality is, the establishment has only been open for two days and they had a very VERY limited menu. They literally only had three entree items to pick from, along with a couple sandwiches. The menu shows options that will be planned in the future but were not available at the time of my visit. The one I really wanted to try was the corned beef and cabbage but of course it wasn’t available yet. So I opted to go with the Irish stew. Now, here is the three stars… for $18 dollars I got a bowl of stew that was worthy of being an appetizer. Yes, it was delicious stew. But it was such a small portion that I decided to take a picture of a half eaten bowl so that you can see just how shallow the bowl was. It was even supposed to come with a roll that is “perfect for dipping” according to the menu (read it for yourself). But the roll was never brought to the table. In fact, several other tables had ordered the stew (cuz there were very few options) and none of them had a roll either. We also ordered the fish and chips. And it was also quite good. A very generous portion of fish with great breading accompanied chips and a pretty fresh Cole slaw. However, the dripping from the Cole slaw ran into to bottom of the dish soaking the chips. It really should have been served in a separate dish. Wayne, the owner/manager stopped at our table and he is a very friendly fellow. He assured us that the menu will be expanded and because of his willingness to have conversation with us, we will certainly return once the restaurant has had some time to get established. But for the prices, there are other places I’d prefer to go where I am confident that I won’t leave hungry. If you choose to go in the near future, just remember that they are just getting started. Maybe I’ll be compelled to leave more stars later on.
