We knew we were in for a treat when we found this to be a neighborhood dive, surrounded by houses…read moreon all sides. We knew we were going to love this place when a neighbor came out to distract his pit bull as we walked by. And when we stepped in to head the bartender explaining to a couple of other customers how terrified she is of clowns, we somehow knew we were going to have more fun here than we'd had all day. It turned out that bartender's name was Becky, and she's 1/2 of the couple who owns the bar. The other half is her husband, Waylan, who showed up later at the end of our visit. "Having a name like Waylan is like having the biggest cock," she said. Or maybe it was B who said that, I don't remember and my notes aren't very clear. :) There is quite a collection of bras on the bar, a recent development. "A while back one of the customers just up and took her bra off, and said she wanted to hang it up. So we did. Then other ladies started doing it," Becky explained. "Now boxer shorts have even started to join the collection." We ended up spending out entire visit chatting with the bartender about their history with the bar. We really enjoyed our time here. In addition to the great personalities, this is a fun-looking bar all around and I'de love to visit again when it's busier. In fact, here's how good a time we had -- when we first arrived we noticed the Silver Strike machine and put a few dollars in it to play. But we never got around to actually doing so! :)

They were hosting a End-Of-No-Shave-November beard contest before the music so the place was packed. It's always so heart warming to find a bar where everyone knows everyone and new people are never a stranger. Staff was kind, beers were cold, sofas were comfy, table games were entertaining, loft seating was a bonus, local art and crafts were fun to peruse & we can't wait to come back to the Pub House for another evening of low key entertainment!

Professional and helpful with menu. bar: Irish themed bar, so choices like Guiness and Harp on tap. I drank a Freestate Yakimaniac IPA ($6 as of May 2026). food: Super interesting menu with lots of Irish-themed choices. Not just bangers and mash or corned beef and cabbage, but offerings like colcannon and coddle. For our first visit, we went with classics. I had a club sandwich which was a daily special ($13) and it was awesome. My wife had an old school cheeseburger ($12.50) and it was excellent. details: It's a small place with handful of booths, tables, and bar seating. There's dedicated parking right outside and street parking. It's slightly away from downtown and worth seeking out.

If you are paying by card they up charge you each time. Prices of the drinks are very inconsistent. The vending machine states to put your money in at your own risk. They have no problem taking the money but both the candy bar and chips got stuck and didn't fall. In my opinion the patron's deserve an establishment that is worthy of their hard earned money.

This is a very dark social clique that if you aren't wearing all black, have at minimum 12 tattoos and 6 piercings you might stick out. Non the less we made our way to the bar after talking our way out of a $20 cover charge for a no name performer. Under the guise of we were only going to have one beer and use the bathroom. I have to admit atmosphere was respectful and bartender seemed amused we were brave enough to even be there. We had our beers, a few laughs with the bartender listened to some local talent opener dj's and then on our way. In my day this group were known as goth, today it's Emo. Bottom line we're all people and with a little mutual respect and humor, it's all good. Enjoy. Humanity shouldn't need a disclaimer, just be a good person. Cheers.
