I caught the Fish and Chips on a Friday, actual cod cooked perfectly; the fries were standard frozen crinkle cut. Hub's personal sized pizza got praise; the crust is legit. And the meatballs as a shareable were delish. The beer menu is somewhat limited but does include a variety of styles (thankfully not all over-hopped). The only negatives, that aren't really "negatives" but noted: the music was a bit loud, not a deal breaker but borderline not pleasant during early lunch. And considering their marinara is SO tasty, and is utilized for the pizzas as well as the meatballs, it's a mystery that there are no pasta dishes nor chicken parm. I'm eager to go back for their brunch!

There is a parking lot after hours otherwise street parking. It is an interesting establishment that is placed right within the community. Which leads me to believe that the restaurant is in an old school or maybe church... nicely renovated either way... the restaurant is spacious, with numerous board games to enjoy while enjoying local beer. I absolutely loved that there was Pac Man-- I probably spent 4 dollars there haha Our waitress was wonderful answering questions and making recommendations. We tried the pizza that in house made dough was delicious... I tried a few beers. I would have this pizza again and I'm glad the waitress was honest about the Heat Lover pizza, as I tried the pepper x sauce on the side and that is HOT! I opted for the Supreme without olives and so glad I did.

The lighting is a bit dim for our old eyes but otherwise it has the feel of a pub. We loved that. Our server was very nice and helpful. We ordered the bacon cheddar fries. The fries are like a cottage fries that are then cut into strips. Perfect fry on them. The bacon could have been crispier but great flavor and a good ranch. I had the KPauls pasta. We all enjoyed it. Pasta cooked perfectly al dente. If you love a saucy pasta this isn't for you. It is nice and creamy but not swimming in it. Big plump shrimp that tasted great. Also has chunks of chicken breast and sliced sausage. Uncle Jim got the red beans and rice. Great flavor but barely warm. The catfish is a thicker cut and battered in a coarsely ground corn meal. Aunt Robin had the shrimp and grits. Those were the star of the show. So creamy and incredible flavor. Very generous amount of nice sized shrimp. Mike had the Keg Stand burger. He requested the sauce on the side. It's definitely a unique flavor. Nice soft bun. The meat was grossly over cooked but would have been tasty had it not been so dry. The onion rings that came with the burger were soggy. Overall, enjoyed it. We know what to get next time. Shrimp and grits and KPauls pasta!!
