The drinks were a fun part of the evening. I had a couple of house Old Fashions that were full-flavored with the Cocoa bitters and made with the large round ice. The "Dealer's Choice" dealt a Huckleberry Mule that was perfect. Highly recommended! Pub 500 comes highly recommended!

I asked for water and asked her to disregard. I inquired about the fish and chips as I noted you can upgrade to get Walleye instead. Seemed like she had no idea what I asked as she gave the impression she thought it was something else other than fish. I ended up getting the cod as she recommended. Well, it tasted like frozen for a very long time. Chips- not the best. Instead of a bacon cheddar biscuit, the plate came with cornbread which was ok. Overall, probably a good place for drinks. Not sure I'll try again.

We stopped by on a Saturday as we were looking for a good family lunch spot and the other Yelp…read morereviews were good. The whole experience seemed flustered. The host originally seated us in a space that did not fit our party. Then he moved us to a center spot in a long, family-style table with people on either side of us. We had a five year old with us who was overly tired and very spunky and we had to try to keep her focused on us and not our neighboring patrons. Was really not the most appropriate seating for children but we didn't want to ask for yet another table. Soon after we sat down, we discovered that the parties on both sides of us were upset and looking for any employee so they could express their frustration. Seeing as we were all so close, we could hear them complain to others in their parties about the service. We learned shortly that we should have written up our losses early and moved on. We didn't. We ordered our beverages and immediately got water. The rest (2 soft drinks, an iced tea, and a milk) slowly trickled out one by one. The waiter apologized every single time he came to the table about how slow everything was from us being seated to getting our drinks to him coming to take our order. Once the food came out, he was apologizing again for how long that took. He wasn't wrong. As for the food, it was fine. Portions were average to smallish for the price. It wasn't as special as we had hoped it would be based on the descriptions. We each got something different and all said that we wouldn't order that item again. Not that it was bad. It just wasn't good. The best thing we had was the pretzel stick appetizer. That was pretty good but for the price, we wouldn't order it again. Nothing was super memorable except the decor which was super fun to look at. Oh and the very apologetic waiter. Our food came out hot. Turns out that was not true for the table to our left. The table to our right got the wrong food so half their group was done while the others were just starting. Apparently one of the cooks had called in. So, over all, I gave them an optimistic 3 stars. It was like a participation award with the assumption that if they were firing on all cylinders, it could have been much better. Personally, i wouldn't try them again but as the only Irish pub in the area, it could be a neat happy hour hang out. It just was not a family lunch spot.

We went there for lunch and they had incredible drink deals - $2.50 bloody Mary's, mimosas, or screwdrivers. Staff were kind and service was quick (even with a group of 12). The food options were good and prices fair, I liked the small plate portions for people like me who eats less at one sitting. The chicken tenders were pretty good, and you can't go wrong with homemade ranch and waffle fries! My fiancé loved his burger and scarfed it down, even having leftover fries due to the amount they give you (good problem to have). Bees were surrounding us outside but that's not Rounder's fault. The bathrooms were atrocious, our feet stuck to the floors quite literally and the soap was out of both men's and women's. (Came back at night and someone had vomited in the women's, it was all over and stunk so bad people couldn't use the bathroom - it took a long time before someone cleaned it). Overall, decent food, fair prices but expect sticky floors and the night crowd to come out on weekend evenings!

While visiting New Prague, we had to stop by the brewery…read more They don't offer flights, but they do have 6oz pours. I would have preferred 4oz options for sampling, but it still worked out. I tried the Space Balls (Milk Stout), Bowcaster (Smoked Märzen), and Lemmiwinks (Berliner Weisse with Black Raspberry - Sour Ale). I also sampled my brother's Giesen Weisse (Hefeweizen). I'm not a big fan of sour ales and didn't realize a Berliner Weisse was a sour until after ordering. That said, it was milder than most sours I've had, and I managed to finish the full pour. Space Balls - Fantastic milk stout. Strong coffee notes up front, followed by chocolate on the finish. Smooth and rich mouthfeel. A+ Bowcaster - Smoked beers can easily go overboard and end up tasting like a campfire, but this one was well balanced. The smokiness enhanced the flavor rather than overwhelming it. Would pair perfectly with a burger or steak. A+ Giesen Weisse - Excellent Hefeweizen with classic banana notes. Super refreshing. I often recommend Hefeweizens to friends who think they don't like beer--this one would definitely win them over. Great brewery overall. I'd recommend it and would definitely return.

It was a Saturday night, so the place was a little packed, but plenty of room for everyone to move around. From the outside (in the photos), the decor and signage was pretty cool! Their outdoor patio looked like it would be a fun place to enjoy a beer on in the summer (not so much in this cold winter night). Once inside, the atmosphere was fun. People were enjoying their company and the beer, and there was a small food stand inside with a few options for Mexican food this night. We all grabbed a beer and I tried some Mexican street corn. It definitely complemented the dark Czech lager I drank! My friends had a hazy IPA they ordered twice, it was tasty! An all-around pleasant experience and good beer. I'd go back, but probably make it a warm weather stop next time to enjoy all of it fully, including having the garage doors open for that "ope -air" feel when it's nice.

Everything was cooked perfectly and was better than what I had expected. The service was alright. We went in mid-day and there were 4 people behind the bar. 1 person (our server) seemed to be the only one running around to all the tables, and pouring all the beers. We had asked for our bill and waited an additional 20 mins as our server seemed to be behind the pouring of beer... yet the other stood around and conversed. That was the only area of improvement. We'd go back and give it a shot though!
