We went for our first time on a Sunday afternoon to watch footbal and eat. We asked to have a different game put on and they let us sit wherever we wanted and gladly accomodated our wishes. The food was great, the service was very friendly and the owner made a point to stop by and chat.They had a free raffle going on during the game ( my wife won a sweatshirt ) and an ex Patriot was there signing pictures. We stayed 3 hours and had a great expereince. We liked the family friendly environment. It is a great place to enjoy a game and eat good pub style food.

Awful food, awful service. We waited fourty minutes and our food was cold. We sent our food back and waited another twenty minutes. When we finally got our second sandwich, it was luke warm and unimpressive. It took an additional fifteen minutes to get buffalo sauce and ketchup. Our waitress was nice, but overworked. There was a very rude middle aged waitress there who snapped at us when we asked for buffalo sauce. Awful experience. We did not even get any compensation for our troubles. I would not reccommend this estblishment to anyone.

I got take out on a Friday night. The parking is terrible, across the street from the restaurant and VERY limited. I had to park in the Dunkin Donuts next door and walk over. The waitress had no idea where to pick up take out orders. It was very crowded and tables were very close together so no where to really wait while the bartender got my food. I paid quickly and made for the door post haste. My French Dip sandwich was dipless, I mean, how do you forget to add the auju? The steak and cheese was terrible too, the meat was thick and tough. My daughters spaghetti and meatballs were terrible. I mean, who puts french fries in with anything that has sauce? I definitely will not be going back to this restaurant. It is for a young drinking crowd that doesn't really care about the quality of food--the more you drink, the better the food.

If you don't have a tv and want to see a game this is the place. Anything else forget it. 45 minutes to get an over cooked burger and cold fries. Beer on tap was luke warm, the table we had was right next to the kitchen and all the waitstaff dumped their garbage in bins on the floor right across from our table. Not sure why the kitchen wouldn't be the place for garbage? Owner could not have cared less. Did not even come over to acknowledge our complaints. Only saving quality, the waiter was friendly and understanding. Would not recommend or EVER go back. Not the way to run a restaurant, Like I said - desperate to see a game without any expectations? Then you'll probably fare OK.
