Delicious vegetarian options as well as more traditional pub fare . Outstanding service , kitschy/cool vibe, and free parking in attached lot. Highly recommended.

Joyce Combass

I love this place. Shelf full of games: mainly trivia , but I found Sorry and even Candyland :). Staff was attentive but not intrusive or pushy. Fabulous selection of American liquors and beers .

Will Edmond

The BBQ Tacos are a hit. They are very large and worth the $7. Also try the Potato Spuds to complete the meal. If you are into Science or Enlightenment this is your favorite pub .

Kazem Edmond

Hush puppies and the potato rounds with toppings (sour cream , bacon , blah blah) are amazing. Good beer selection . Good service . And a fun atmosphere .

David M Reines

Excellent food, it's our neighborhood pub . Reminds me of the places my dad used to take me to. Low key , darts , board games . They stress American brews and liquors .

Lee Coursey

The Bourbon Fried Chicken is delicious, flavorful, and served with some fantastic mashed sweet potatoes . Get it!

Karl Sigler

Brand new menu. Amazing stuff. Try the Empanadas , the bratwurst , or the bourbon fried chicken breast ! ...if they aren't sold out.

K M

Lovely microbrew list and huge salads . Should've gotten the seared tuna , but got the smoked turkey instead. It was deli meat style...meh. TMT is absolutely on my bar rotation now.

Sarah A.

Lots of veg options . You have to get a side of their fries !!! The TLT was yums. Beans and rice kinda spicy !

Bravo

Ask for J.B. he is a great bartender . Super friendly and they have great pub food . -Tracey Bloom, Top Chef

Not the service on Friday night...or at least my Friday. The food was rushed and under cooked. The veg burger had NO TOPPINGS. The sautéed kale was exactly that- no seasonings whatsoever just kale ..hm

AKI Shimada

Nice beer selection ! Great fried green tomato sandwich !

Michael Wills

Get the cilantro chicken sammich , and the potato rounds are always good, but also give some of the other sides a chance!

KC Sanders

The wait staff has no clue how to handle food allergies. If you have any, you really have to educate them. Otherwise, you'll tell them you have a gluten allergy & they'll still put bread on your plate

Karin Mack

Skip gumbo (uses broth for base instead of roux) and red beans (just canned beans? over rice ). Go for drinks!

Bonnie Ruszczyk

My favorite watering hole. All the bartenders are fantastic.

Keith Lowry

All domestic wines , beers , and liquors .. no imports.. The spiced rum from Corsair is awesome!

@tessa Horehled

Order the "Starving Artist " -- it's a rotating beer , often a very good one, and only $2.50! Total deal.

Terry Powner

Fried green tomato sandwich is great. Turkey ruben is also good

John Davis

If you're a fan of bourbon , try the Balcone Brimstone

Joe Smith

The service might be the worst I've ever encountered. The food is good, so we kept giving it a try, but no more. We got up and walked out the past three times in a row.

Jonathan Greenlee

Great BLT and veggie plate

Rebecca B

Alex is the best bartender ever!!

Holly Simpson

Get the Gouda dip , 86 tortilla chips , sub mounds of rounds.

Donna Scharf

This place is where the locals go, and I LOVE that!

Marc Schultz

Jessica Thompson

Potato rounds are the best!

Hops Diva

Alex the bartender here rocks.

Dave Kell

An interesting place.

Joanna Allen

The owner says this offer is fake and they don't accept it. Boo hiss.

Nicole Keane

Waitress/Bartender was not a happy camper. Grumpy.

Matt Keeler

Meh. This place is always so-so, but at least it's consistent.

Mark M

Bartender really is unfriendly. Very strange...she does not want to be here, apparently.
