Once seated, the table was dirty even after being cleaned. The plastic wrapped menus were disgusting. We waited 15 mins before the manager/owner finally came by and asked us if we had seen a server yet then asked if they could take our drink order. 10 mins later a server came by, no greeting or excuses about making us wait, proceeded to say she just put our drink order in and was now waiting on the bar. At this point our patience had been more than tested and we left. Definitely not worth trying again.

                                                                  Is this helpful?

The food was typical pub fare but just what we were looking. The couple who wer playing were excellent. Great voice, excellent guitar and good selection of songs. If weren't headed to a show we would've styed to listen longer.
