Our server was very sweet and attentive. We've been twice for dinner in the past month (reservations prior to shows at the Sorg). The food is quite good... it's the time it takes to actually get to eat it. Once is an "oops", twice is the routine. VERY SLOW. Very good, but very slow both times. (and last night, there were only 2 people at the bar and empty tables on a Friday, so not sure why they wouldn't be right on it). Does have one good single malt scotch at the bar (Oban). The rest are just blends. Nice place, good food, directly across from the Sorg. But the kitchen is just so SLOW.

Sadly disappointed again! We Book pre-concert (across street) Both recent visits understaffed, long wait for service, drinks, food Gave another chance but not again This night waited 30min+ for first bevs, longer for food (over an hour) Food had to be sent back, credited as fries, rings were cold and fish was hot exterior but breading moist inside and fish mushy, undercooked Won’t go back. Res was for 6p, food arrived so late as to make us nearly miss show open. Heard others’ complaints UNDERSTAFFED Merkle’s Tavern from now on!

The dining room was smoky. We never got our food after a 1/2 wait, and the poor waitress was so overwhelmed, she was literally running from table to table. We had to cancel our food order after 30 min, because we had concert reservations across the street at the Sorg. Very poor management.

They seemed to be out of a lot of food options. Have been there a few times and this is the first time this has happened.

Overall, we enjoyed the Swire Inn. We sat outside in the back so we could enjoy the live music. The food was very good... for the most part. Fresh... but some items were over seasoned (over salted fried pickles, overly sweet Brussels sprouts). While the staff were super friendly, the service was a bit chaotic, but fortunately it didn't sour our experience. We would come back in hopes that the service improves.

It was not a very good experience. Food was tepid and at least one order was incorrect. Our server, Erin, was pleasant but not timely. No utensils or napkins. Had to go get our drinks

The food was very good but waiting 1.5 hours isn’t acceptable. Also our table was squeezed between the bar and the wall and the hallway was the path to the restroom.

Second time eating here. Both have been great. We had dinner in "The Porch Room" and it was very nice. Quiet enough to carry on normal level conversation. Service and food was fantastic. Servers were very professional and friendly. So far we have had Fish & Chips, Pot Roast, Reuben, Shepard's Pie, and Salmon. The Onion rings are battered, NOT breaded, and really good. Deviled Eggs were Dill flavor this time, always good. We will be back.

Once we arrived we were seated right away. Restaurant was practically empty. The server informed us of everything they were out of.. ranging from wine.. appetizers.. main dishes. Our food then took a very long time to be delivered. Food was good but very disappointed in overall experience and wouldn’t recommend. I also sent a message to the restaurant via Facebook.. but didn’t get any kind of reply.

1st time dining here; at the recommendation of friend. The place was very busy as it was a show night at the Sorg. Our server did a great job, food came out in a reasonable amount of time and was very good. We tried the side salads, Shephard's Pie and the Bangers & Mashed. The noise level was a little high for the room we were in due to all solid surfaces (wood floor, hard walls, etc.) and could benefit from some cloth wall hangings or something to absorb some sound. We plan to return.
