About this restaurant

Lively
Great for brunch
Good for groups

We’re a diverse team of makers — baristas, bartenders, chefs, mixologists, roasters, distillers, and brewers — who came together to create a neighborhood place we all need.
It’s a place that brings people together morning, noon, and night. A place with crazy delicious food and destination drinks. A place to grab a crave-worthy bite on the fly or to hang a while with a book and coffee. A place to brunch with your besties or happy hour with your work crew. A place to roll solo with your laptop or roll deep with your family and friends.
It’s a place for you. It’s a place for us. It’s a pub for the people.
LIVE MUSIC:
EVERY FRIDAY & SATURDAY 8-11PM

Our second visit back. We enjoyed our food and service the first visit. Second visit the service was mediocre. Forgetting items, delayed drinks, delays in checking in. We were done and our server did not come back for 45min, yet we can see she went to two twice. We were planning on having dessert but changed our mind when we had to wait 45min for a check. Honestly the food is fantastic. Service this evening was subpar. Server said she was working a double and just got sat a 20+ top. But still. Air conditioning was so cold and music was so loud. It honestly didn’t not have the welcoming ambiance we experienced the other day. Food though was phenomenal. And food runners were on their A game that night. May I suggest servers number their orders and teach seating to runners so they aren’t calling off dishes like they are auctioning them. Just my opinion.

Our server, Winter, was fabulous during the busy Sunday brunch. Food was great, but there were a couple rowdy tables near us making conversation difficult.

I was not happy with my steak and when I mentioned it to the wait staff they completely ignored the fact that I had barely eaten it. I was with clients and didn't want to make a fuss in front of them Poor service if I'm honest

We had a really lovely experience dining outside. While the food wasn't perfect, our waiter, Sheriff, was. He was very attentive, but not overly attentive, extremely personable and a lot of fun to talk to. We had beers and a mule cocktail ...the latter being very nice, albeit a bit expensive, as was the wine. Two of us ordered the flatiron steak...very nice, one ordered the salmon entree and one ordered the Mediterranean salad with chicken, which was fine but nothing to write home about. We were sitting outside, but still found the music inside to be quite loud. It was a nice spot for friends from McLean and Ashburn to meet halfway, but Sheriff is the main reason for 5 stars rather than 4.

We dined early and when we sat down, there was no one else in the restaurant yet it took a while for someone to come and see if we wanted anything. It then took 14 minutes to get four adult beverages. Oddly, it only took 15 minutes to get our food once our order was placed. Our server was nice, but maybe couldn’t hear us when we asked to split the check and it was all put on my credit card. The fish and chips were inconsistently cooked. The fries were excellent. The fried chicken was overcooked and lacked flavor. The French dip was quite good. The flat iron steak was supposed to be meeting rare and was quite rare. Lastly, the wine is overpriced if ordered per glass. We understand the wine retail markup, but it was ridiculous. With the number of restaurants in Reston, I don’t see why we would return.

This is my 3rd time in a month. I really enjoyed the food here. The crab soup is delicious. I rated my first 2 visits 5 star because both food & service were excellent. This (3rd) time around, service was fair. Please brew your iced tea stronger to stand up to the summer heat. Had to send mine back because cannot taste tea. Keep up the excellent food quality!
