    It was my birthday and I made a reservation. Not only did they not have anything in stock that I specifically chose the place for, our waitress completely forgot my brothers drink and my twin sisters complete order. They never brought my brothers drink even though he asked twice. My boyfriend asked for sweet potato fries with his meal and it came out with regular fries. I asked for a side of Mayo, it didn’t come out. Then my twin sister had to reorder her food after the waitress was like “oops” and she didn’t get her food until after everyone else was already done eating. It was her birthday too obviously so it was very disappointing. We also got the calamari and it was soggy and so chewy it was impossible to eat. And to top it all off we couldn’t even hear our party talking because there were a bunch of drunk older people yelling at the top of their lungs. Oh and also they never gave us enough cups for water for the table and only filled up the carafes one time even though one carafe couldn’t even be split between 4 people. (We had 11)

    We arrived early at 3:30 PM for our 4:00 reservation and got the best seat in the house right in front of the fireplace (gas) in the bar side of the establishment. Cozy and warm. The food was good as was the cabernet. Time stretched on well after we were finished eating and drinking at a nearly 3 hour stay. They were very forgiving as by the time we left it was packed. I apologized to the hostess and she was very gracious and welcoming telling me no worries and happy we enjoyed ourselves.

    The only negative was that my thanksgiving wrap had too much stuffing. It needed more turkey, cranberry and mayonaise. Otherwise all the other good items were very good.

    the food was super tasty. the wait staff was very attentive, but not in the won't stop bothering you way. the building and interior was adorable and reminded me of a tavern from D&D. I basically loved everything about this spot. 10/10 will return, even with it being an hour and twenty minutes from my house!

    Went out with another couple for a casual dinner, we were given a specials as well as a dinner menu, we were also given a choice of rooms to sit in. My friend picked the bar room area. Our waiter greeted us promptly and water was provided. Drinks were good, a great pour for wine . The menu is extensive and it was hard to decide so we ordered apps and continued to look for entrees. Pickle brined chicken wings and vegetable egg rolls were tasty. Varied entrees we’re ordered, and most everyone was happy, I will say no one was claiming “this is so amazing “ but everything was tasty between the Reuben/Rachel, salmon salad, and pulled pork tacos. I apparently made the wrong choice, the fish and chips. There were two small heavily battered fingers of fish, and warm off tasting coleslaw, the sweet potato fries were the best part. Not impressed with this at all for the price, or even for any price. Next time I’ll order something else for sure. So we will certainly be back to give it another try. The atmosphere was inviting and perhaps a fried chicken or pulled pork entree would be a better choice.

    This was our first visit to little pub and our expectations were high! I was not blown away by the food, to be honest. The best item ordered among us was the meatloaf grilled cheese, very flavorful, and the salads were quite fresh. Burgers were pretty good. We will definitely give them another try and explore some other menu choices.

    Wish the menu had a few more meals. I understand perhaps COVID has challenged their supply or planning but missed the more expansive menu. Would only recommend for lunch these days.

    This was our first visit to any Little Pub location and what a perfect choice for a Saturday night dinner before a comedy show. Our waitress Alexis was great, friendly, quick and helpful. The busboy suggested some of the food we ordered and the bartenders were great too. They had an awesome band playing (we sat outside under the tent). The Pickle Wings were a must-try and we would definitely order again! Try if you are a pickle and wing lover! The giant pretzel was great and as the busboy said, the cheese sauce is like crack lol! All of our meals were delicious too. I can't wait to go back and try other locations!
