About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Neighborhood gem
Good for business meals

Several years ago, I decided that my future in the restaurant business would most likely not remain in the realm of fine dining and gourmands, but would rather lean towards the style of restaurant that I found myself frequenting most often - places that provided consistency and quality at a price that was fair for the quality of the food and experience. Public House plays to the comforts of good, solid food, while applying the principles of premium food products to a more casual setting. You will find all the fish is delivered from Foley’s in Boston, high quality steaks and a rotating selection of vegetable sides that are true to the region and season. You’ll also find a really good hamburger and fish sandwich, along with fun snacks and small plates that pair well with cocktails, beer and wine.
Welcome,
Nathan Lindley

Arrived on time for reservation and we were seated immediately. Server followed with water and drink suggestions. Not pushing…just informing. Order arrived quickly…and was perfect. Server attentive and conversational. A good mix. Highly recommend.

I met my 80 year old parents here for lunch. The fried pickles are great- not too battered- and we loved the pimento cheese (it’s creamier than most). The mimosas were really good, and the service was impeccable. It gets a little loud for people with hearing aids, but we loved it and I’ll go back someday.

Server and host were absolutely amazing. Wife and I split a salad and the filet and the kitchen split and served the meal on separate plates. Seasonal Old Fashion and Sangria were also excellent.

We come here just about 1x a month. The food is outstanding: always get the chicken livers (nicely fried juicy pieces over grits) and trout dip to start. Usual favorites are the shrimp and grits (my chef husband says it's one of the best compilations he's ever had) and the trout entree. Tried the steak frites this time - perfectly cooked temperature and tender with excellent shoe string fries. The cocktails (expertly made Paper Plane!) are a nice complement to our meals. Everyone welcomes our dog on the patio, and it is a delight to always get to catch up with Bradley. This time we were served by Amy, who was a delight to chat with. Every server/staff are warm and friendly; we feel like we are home at Public House. We also received a nice note for our date night, just because!
