    We went here for a date, and we loved this restaurant. The food is so good; it's really elevated Irish food, not like the quality you find in most Irish pubs. I had the best Fish and Chips I have ever had, and I was thrilled to see that they had Magners Hard Cider on the menu. It's so hard to find in this area. It was an amazing dining experience. The restaurant was noisy and lively, but we could still have a good conversation.

    We sat outside in November. They had plenty of heaters and an open air type shelter. Was quaint. We had a variety of dishes between the 5 of us and everyone loved their meal. Would highly recommend.

    Great food and drinks. Nice atmosphere. It wasn’t busy at all during our visit, but our server was almost non existent
