The service was marginal. Had crab dip appetizer, was great, so ordered the crab cake. Right out of a box of frozen food. Horrible!! read more

Party of 7. Sat us right by the door. Fine except the cold air blowing in, every time the door opened. Need some type of blower over the door to keep out the cold air. Brrr.. 40 out and raining. Bring your coat! Need to train the staff. Never reach across guests before asking the guest. Food was good. Burgers were good. Nice atmosphere. read more

We are there last week and the steak was tender but not seasoned and was bland. The wine is not priced on the menu which makes me wonder what they're hiding . I want to know the price when making a decision. read more

Just left and I wish I could leave 5 stars but the service was poor. Jo our server had no personality. It about ten minutes once seated for someone to talk to us. The first girl just told us that Jo would be with us soon (could have got our drink order). Five minutes later she came to get our drink orders (had no drink menus with her). According to her they only have one in the whole restaurant. We got the blueberry cheesecake by Ghost Train it was good but not cold enough. When she came back we ordered our appetizer and food. Well here's my biggest problem was we never receive our appetizer. Our food came out pretty quick and was amazing other than my vegetables were way to salty. When we received our check the appetizer was not on it but we never received an apology or reason why we did not get it. read more

No better steak in or around Cullman! We've been twice since 412 opened earlier this month. The ribeye is melt in your mouth good! As is, the pork chop ribeye! The Gouda burger was juicy and simply perfection! The sides are equally delish! We've tried the broccolini, Brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes, asparagus and sweet potato fries and haven't found one flaw with anything. Fresh and fun atmosphere! Space is limited. That's the only drawback. Owner is on hands and super friendly. Build on to this amazing restaurant!! More room! Everything else is perfection! Oh oh oh!! I didn't mention the crab dip with wontons!! The crab tasted fresh! The wontons were perfectly crispy and seasoned just right! read more

See all

Stopped to eat at Public House on our way to Smith Lake. Restaurant looked interesting on Yelp so we decided to give it a try. Very nice and clean resturaunt with excellent service. We both order the burger which came on a toasted bun with a peppery flavor. Fries also crisp and hot with a light sprinkle of black pepper. I was hoping to drink a good craft beer, but their selection was limited. read more

412 Public House - Burger and fries - Gastropubs Near Me - Cullman, Alabama

First time to the Public House. I ordered the Mahi Mahi and my wife ordered the Linguini Alfredo. They were all out of Mahi Mahi so I had the Gouda Burger w sweet potato fries. The burger and fries were excellent but not a$14 value. The Linguini Alfredo was good but $14 as well with no meat. A little on the high side for me. The restaurant facility and our server were excellent and the rest rooms were clean. Interesting and nice place. They also have a nice bar but since my wife and I don't drink it is a non draw for us. read more

This is a review of two visits - one during weekday lunch, the other was on a Saturday around 2pm. I will start off by saying that if you need a fast meal this is not the place. This is a place for a more leisurely lunch. During a busy and not so busy time we had a pretty lengthy wait from order time to food on the table (30-40+minutes). When we arrived on the Saturday, the restaurant was at 20-30% capacity. Now I will preface this by saying that these are visits during covid times. I'm not sure what the kitchen staffing is during 'normal' conditions. Maybe the kitchen is quicker. Both times I ordered the Cuban sandwich with the roasted brussel sprouts. That Cuban is a darn good sandwich, the reason I came back for a second time and why I didn't order anything different. It's a juicy slab of pork ribeye topped with smoky ham, cheese, mustard/Mayo and spicy sweet pickles on a grilled ciabatta bun. Pure hearty sandwich goodness. You'll need a to-go box for the other sandwich half. Hubby's had the smoked Gouda burger and the Cuban here at the 412. He liked the Cuban more. He says the burger was just okay. Love the brussel sprouts! I like the fact that they offer a vegetable alternative to fries. Their crab dip is good. Love the ingenuity of using seasoned wonton crisps as dippers (saw nachos going around using those too... looked yummy!). In many places you can barely see the crab in the dip, not here. It is the dip- a plus in my book. So thumbs up. The lunch menu is very limited. It appears that this limit allows them to focus on what they do well. read more

Thought the food was pretty mediocre, especially for the price. Environment was good. Food came quick. Service was okay. Probably wont eat their again. read more

Enjoyed an early dinner recently. Food was good but wait for it was very long. Server came back after a while and asked for our order again, so obviously the first order was lost. It happens, and I'd give it another try. read more

412 Public House is like Manhattan Beach nestled in the country. It was absolutely delicious! I had the fried green tomato - fried egg sandwich for Sunday brunch. It was perfect just like our waitress, Krissy:) Thanks for the wonderful recommendation! read more

Great food! Great atmosphere! I recommend the Bloody Mary or any of the Mojito's. My personal favorites are the Smoked Gouda Burger and the Grilled Chicken Eggplant Sandwich. Both sandwiches are unbelievable! I have tried almost everything on the menu and haven't been disappointed! read more

412 Public House is an extraordinary restaurant and experience!!! Wonderful food prepared by chefs that truly care about the quality of the meal and the customers satisfaction. The restaurant itself has a fine dining feel but the prices are welcoming for all. I definitely recommend 412 for dining and drinks. read more

The crab dip with wontons is amazing! All the food is delicious. The homemade cheese sticks are also really good.

food is excellent service is great and entrées sometimes sell out because they're so good place is small but it empties pretty quickly and you can get seated if you have to wait there's a great bar also read more

The food was very good. Our waitress was very knowledgeable about how the food was prepared and very attentive to our needs. The owner on the other hand needs an office to do his paperwork instead of the bar. Plus he needs to pay attention to his guest. He changed the television to a basketball game without having the common courtesy to ask if anyone was watching it plus the same game was on the other 3 tvs. I'm giving the 4 stars to the staff and food not the owner he gets a 0. read more

My favorite steak house in Cullman. I've try many dishes and I did love each of them.

So disappointing. We had family here for one night only, from South Alabama. We called in early afternoon for seating for 11 adults at 7 PM. We arrived on time and after waiting 10 to 15 minutes we were informed there was at least a one hour wait to be seated so we could enjoy our annual family Christmas dinner outing. No manager spoke with us at all. There was no place to sit while we waited and the doorway area was over-crowded. We quickly called Allsteak and they immediately accommodated our group and we had a great meal there as well as a great experience. read more

We split the Gouda burger and french fries. It was a good burger but it was $14. Cute place and nice service.

Have a delish dinner with my hubby and our two best friends! The burgers with sweet potato fries were awesome! Be prepared to ask for lots more napkins. The linguine Alfredo was outstanding! Great food with great friends!! read more

I was a more than a little disappointed. The nachos were good. The steak was way over priced. I ordered it medium well and had to send it back. It came back rare and didn't have much flavor. I don't see what all the fuss is about. read more

I had an amazing time at 412! The food was cooked perfectly, the decor was beautiful, the staff was super kind and attentive. The owners even took time out of their day to come and make sure everything was perfect. I would suggest 412 to anyone looking for an upscale experience; amazing drinks, amazing food and awsome staff. Hats off to the owners for putting together a top shelf bar in Cullman Alabama! 412 reminds me of hotspots in LA but with a southern feel. read more

Forgot to write review two weeks ago. Bartenders were awesome. Pork chops were best I've had. Excellent experience. Will definitely return. read more

Great atmosphere. Reminiscent of a New York or European small space with lots of cool ambiance. I'm recommending this place despite the huge mix-up with our food. Ordered the filet medium rare and it arrived nearly well, but with good flavor. The server offered to replace it, but instead of a filet, brought a rare prime rib with gravy, which disguised any flavor the prime rib might have. Should have kept the filet, which truly was good--just over-cooked and therefore, a bit dry. I would not recommend the prime rib, however. Other diner had the cobia special, which was good. The grilled broccolini was WAY over-salted and I LOVE salt. So if it is too salty for me, beware. Service was good and they aimed to please so I'm happy to give them a good rating. I hope they take note of these issues and continue to improve as the area needs a restaurant of this caliber to succeed. We will definitely give them another try and you should too! read more

I ate there last night , I had surf and turf the special. no A1 for the steak :( we had the tuna tataki for appetizer and there was no soy sauce for that :( and for my sides I had mashed potatoes and asparagus. the potatoes were dead cold and the asparagus was tough :( they offered Heinz 57 for the steak and Worcestershire sauce for the tuna??? my people...no! read more

412 Public House is outstanding! I have not had anything from the menu that I did not love. My personal favorite is the linguini alfredo with grilled chicken. Their sweet potato fries make for a yummy side too. If I am being super picky my only complaint would be that the service can be a little slow, but it is only because 412 is so popular. Honestly I think the food is worth any wait. If you have not been to 412 Public House and are in the Cullman area I highly recommend giving it a try! read more

Great food with a wonderful atmosphere!! The Wonton Nachos are a great appetizer and the pork ribeye is one of the best meals we've had in a long time. read more

Our family stopped on the way home from the beach and absolutely loved it! We had Sunday brunch and loved the eggs Benedict! Loved it!

So frustrating and unacceptable. Purposely got off the interstate to eat here. Arrived at 1:34. The posted closing time on their website and door was 2 pm. People were inside but the door was locked. Absolutely NOT Southern hospitality. Can't imagine what the actual service would be like if I had been allowed in! read more

Consistently the best food in Cullman, Alabama!!! Service is great and the food even better!

Found this little jewel of a place enroute from Birmingham to Nashville from another Yelp review. An upgraded gastro pub with a small but eclectic mix of food offerings. I was tempted by both the Ahi Tuna Poke Salad (reminded me of Hawaii) and the Smoked Gouda Burger. The burger won out since it was a chilly rainy day. Very nice selection of wines and cocktails. Probably beer as well but since not a beer drinker didn't really notice. The service was excellent and the decor English pub mixed with modern- take a look at the pictures as can't quite describe. Enjoyed my meal and will return next time I am down this way. read more

We called ahead for seating and they failed to save it in the electronic system. After waiting for over an hour for a table they finally came to seat us but it was at two separate tables. I've heard the food is great but I never had the chance to eat it. read more

Great ambiance and food! We love this place. It's a must go to place if your in Cullman.

Oh my! Get in your car and head to 412 Public House right now! You will not regret it. Everything is "top notch"--the service, the drinks, the food and the ambiance. My wife and I visited for lunch today and it did not disappoint. While the special for the day was crab cakes, we could not resist trying Wonton Nachos. What is that, you say? Well it is deep fried wonton chips topped with marinated cabbage, mixed vegetables, fresh jalapeños, banana peppers and melted pepper jack cheese. You get your choice of shrimp or chicken. We chose chicken which had been blackened. Mind you this is an appetizer, but it is enough for two people for lunch. Their menu should satisfy any one with a range of fish, burgers, salad, pork and beef. Did I mention creme brûlée or mixed berry cheese cake? I live 53 miles from Public House but it is worth the drive and I will do it again regularly. Finally, I must say our server Kristina was top notch! She was attentive to every need we had from blocking the noon sun from our table to recommending great lunch options. She was personable, friendly and highly responsive. It was a pleasure to be served by her. I've got to say it again. Give 412 Public House a try ASAP. read more

412 Public House has been a breath of fresh air for Cullman restaurants. We really don't partake in the bar, but have ordered mixed drinks a handful of times and those were really good. We go for the food. The quality is above anything you can get in Cullman. The fillet is perfection and the tuna appetizer is as good as the ahi tuna at Bonefish. I just wish they had a larger location. It gets cramped in there fast. I'm crossing my fingers they'll expand one day soon. They certainly seem to have the business for it. Very grateful to have this little gem in our city. read more

Food is amazing, yes, but the Creme brûlée cheesecake is probably the best dessert I have ever had! My husband and I enjoy eating here when we have a babysitter for the kids, it's a nice laid back atmosphere with great food! read more

I have been looking forward to visiting this place since I saw it on Facebook. In a few words: delectable, divine, delicious, decadent. Divine cocktails, original and interesting. Delectable crab dip, seems hand pulled, made from scratch, accompanying chips-inDescribable, Delicious food. Brussels sprouts - " game changer". Broccollini was a nice twist. Donna says the creme brûlée cheesecake is a decadent indulgence. read more

I was so excited to try a new restaurant in Cullman. We need a good restaurant. The building and decor are quite handsome. They are drawing a good crowd which is always a good sign. We were told it would be a seven minute wait and they would text us. I like that. Six minutes later our table was ready. It was the same empty table in front that had been open for the last six minutes. Okay... I don't understand that move. We order drinks and an appetizer. Lemonade, coke, sweet tea and a glass of Rock Wall Sauvignon Blanc that tasted a whole lot like a Chardonnay. That was a very buttery tasting Sauvignon Blanc so don't order it unless you want something that tastes like a Chardonnay. I ordered the crab dip and my husband later added on the wonton nachos with pork. The crab dip would have been good if there had been actual crab meat in it. It was surimi or processed Pollock. If there was any real crab meat in it, the addition of the imitation stuff overpowered the real crab. The main entrees were crab cakes (yep, surimi again), pork chop rib-eye (brined?? Too salty), fish Rueben (okay, soggy, try toasting both sides) and a smoked Gouda burger (no complaints). Luckily I had ordered a side of Parmesan Brussels sprouts (which were yummy) because I didn't eat the crab cakes. I had two college boys with me so they loved the wonton nachos and dip. College aged boys will eat anything... better than Ramon. My son did point out that what did I expect from an $18 entree of crab cakes. I thought, one real crab cake? I did order a glass of the house Pinot noir... for $5.50 I would have expected something a tad more smooth. I wasn't looking for top notch, of course, it's a house wine and this is America. When looking at the price for four people, $110, I guess it wasn't too bad. Jeremy was an attentive waiter, no complaints there. He did offer me a to go box for the crab cakes. I didn't want to take them home. I didn't want to eat them in the first place but my son took them... again, college kids will eat anything. read more

Amazing food. Cook to order burgers. Great mimosas and outstanding loaded Bloody Mary's. Must go!!!
