What a fabulous find! It's tucked away in a neighborhood far from the tourist hot spots…read more Frankly, I'd be here every week if I lived in the area. We arrived at a weird hour of the day, around 3:30/4:00 p.m. The bartender seated us and took our order as there was only one other patron. She was friendly and attentive, even made a pot of coffee for my daughter. We enjoyed the Scotch egg, bangers and mash, lamb lollipops, French onion soup, and pub salad - all of which were amazing. The decor was fresh and clean. Loved the pictures of pubs from the Cambridge and Somerville - quite unexpected. The Continental made our trip home much more pleasant. Thank you, Continental!

Avoid this spot. Came here after a concert at Thompson Point. We were seated quickly, and ordered a…read morefew drinks and some poutine shortly after. The waitress was extremely rude, calling my sister in law too intoxicated to be served (she doesn't drink, and only ordered water), and that if she kept "acting up" she would have to leave. We were all shocked, as we had been entirely polite, respectful, and relatively quiet compared to other diners in the establishment. Super weird vibe. She honestly seemed to be on some sort of substance herself. Asked for the check shortly after eating some really mid appetizers, and she awkwardly apologized saying "she misread the situation" and that they get lots of "drunk tourists" in the establishment. Made for a good laugh the next day, but was a really strange experience.

Despite visiting here a few times, I somehow have not posted a review after these visits. It's been…read morequite the mainstay bar/pub in the Old Port for quite a long while now since 1980. It has old school vibes when you step inside with plenty of exposed brick walls and art/decor on many of the walls too. As well as quite a few TVs like you'd expect most bars/pubs to have. It certainly has a vibe overall where I can understand those who live nearby would make it their go-to choice for a beer or a bite to eat by themselves or with friends or to catch a game on the TVs. The visits me and my wife have had including bringing out of state family to visit have been good service wise with minimal complaints but at times waits for food have been longer than expected even when restaurant was not busy. Could use some improvement but minimal. Food wise I have had a burger from them, their mac n cheese, as well as some other sandwiches. I would kind of classify the food in a similar way as the service. It is good but doesn't leave me wowed or thinking I need to return for the meal. It's solid for bar/pub food. If you set your expectations in that manner, I think you will leave quite pleased. A great spot to pop in from commercial street after a day of walking around for a cold drink and a bite to eat.

It was very sweet to pull up on an October morning with all the beautiful trees. The food was just OK. I was very excited for the cinnamon rolls, however, we had a guest that has a severe allergy to nuts. When we inquired about the contents of the cinnamon rolls, the server came back and said "Chef said they're made in a factory" which 1) Did not answer our question about the nut allergy and 2) Thank you for telling us these are not actually made in house lol. I'll give it to them, the factory cinnamon rolls are good. We can confirm there are no nuts in the cinnamon rolls. I got the "braised beef hash" which I was excited about and was surprised when actually chunks of braised beef came out in no hash form whatsoever. The beef was perfectly fine. The crispy potatoes appeared to be controversial. I liked the crispiness and thought they tasted fine! Another friend of mine really enjoyed the omelet with ham and gruyere. Two friends who got the biscuits & gravy said the ratio was a little off. There was one gentleman working around the room who has clearly been in the game. The other server we had could benefit from a little more training/support perhaps. I asked for coffee three separate times, which he acknowledged three times, and never got it. The Good Table has a lot of potential, hope they can turn it around!

I had the steak and cheese and my Dad had the fried haddock sandwich. We both very much enjoyed our meals. The hand cut French fries were delicious. The onions, peppers, aioli on the steak sandwich elevated it, cheesy too! We were both very happy. Service was great. We will return! My brother told me not to post these pictures because he said they were terrible but I'm doing it anyway! Lol.

It's open seating so we sat ourselves & one of the two waitresses came over to use fairly quickly. She had our drinks to the table fast but again there wasn't much traffic here. Before the food arrived she came back & told us she would be leaving because it's so slow & was transferring us to the other waitress. All was fine. When the food came out my wife's salad was without any dressing & my steak salad was overcooked. I ordered medium & it was well done. Pretty bland too, but bad choice on my end. Wife had to get up & find somebody to get dressing for her salad. We shared some Mac & cheese to try it & I wasn't a fan either it's bland as well even though it's "house made". Probably didn't order the best but still the best thing was the blueberry beer they make.
