   Drinks and food were fine, nothing special and pricey (like most spots in PS). I recall being more impressed when I first visited years ago. Pleasant service but understandably a bit slow/overworked during holiday.

   Food was great! The server (Hispanic gentleman from Chicago) was excellent! Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We’ll be back!

   We’ve dined here many times over the years and have watched the quality go down while prices have steadily gone up. It was a place we took out of town guests for many years but was embarrassed by the quality this time. Two of us ordered fish and chips and all of our pieces were mostly breading. The two others ordered dinner salads and both salads had many pieces of lettuce that shouldn’t have been used. So sad because the ambiance is fun and the drinks are great.

   Make sure you order the shepherd’s pie made with filet mignon. OMG! It’s a simple dish (I even make it at home), but the chef amped up the flavors and we were just about licking the bowl. Delicious!

   We enjoyed our meal very much, we were disappointed there wasn’t a holiday special (turkey dinner, or similar) as in the past. Our server was wonderful.

   Bar staff ( Daniel & Steve) were excellent. Wait staff was terrible. Came in for a 5:15 restaurant and there were only a few tables with customers. 3 right by our table. a single person, a couple and a family of 4. Wait staff never came over to greet us. A waitress walked to by 3 times going over to occupied tables and never acknowledged my wife and myself 1 time. After the third pass by she went over to the wait station and talked with the other waitress staff. Understand that were not a total of 10 people in the indoor section of the restaurant. No will be with in a minute, a hello or any acknowledgment. Being around the restaurant business my entire adult life and very conscious of the atmosphere and busyness of the restaurant. This wait staff would rate a -1. Absolutely terrible. This is the 2nd time this has happened here, We got up went to the bar and were treated with the upmost attention and service. Both gentlemen were outstanding. We will return because the food is excellent but will sit at the bar which I recommend if there a no children in your party. Great food, beer and wine choices.

   Two of us had fish and chips, and one person had a burger. The fish was OK but had a lot of batter compared to the amount of fish, and it was a bit greasy. The fries are an odd shape and it's hard to dip them in the little ketchup holders. The fries that were served with the fish were way overcooked and so crispy I couldn't eat them. My husbands fries were better as they were not overcooked.
