We were there for a special bingo night, and I noticed right away that it was cozy and decorated with the history of Brooksville. Yes, there was a limited menu because of our bingo event, and I chose to have a French dip which was very generous and very delicious. I'm not sure about the service on regular night, but the lady that we had on the bingo night had a ton of tables, but she was very prompt and very friendly. read more

THANKS FOR POSTING IT! I went to Main Street Eatery and I'm glad I did. Sweet waitress and very welcoming. Come here instead. You won't be disappointed. read more

Red Mule Pub - Empty storefront! - Sandwiches Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

Seriously the hidden gem of Hernando County, FL! This place appears to be ran by a group of family members, and they're very sweet and personable. I ordered the El Mulo 1/2 sandwich and my teeth sunk into the bread. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. So, so good. They weren't stingy on the meat one bit!! The potato soup was Luke warm, so that was kind of a bummer, but the taste was delicious!! My mom ordered the Pub Club and she loved hers too! It was so filling for both of us. We will certainly be back!!! read more

It's still closed after a fire last year - have heard they plan to reopen but they haven't updated their FB or website so don't really know. They had great corned beef & pastrami sandwiches in past read more

This establishment was recommended to us by a friend and it was worth stopping in for! Eclectic decor and it's all about the sandwich's. Corn beef or pastrami are the main ingredients or should I say stars. I had the traditional Reuben on steamed rye with thousand island dressing & sauerkraut. My hubby had the pastrami on rye. Each sandwich comes with a pickle & bag of chips. I also had the white sangria which on Saturday is a special for $4 glass. Heather our server is friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant and its history. Highly recommend. read more

We stop by here every time we are in the area. The food is fresh and generous. You could even split a sandwich. The baked potato soup or the potato salad with bacon and cheese is a must. I love the Ruben sandwiches with either corn beef or pastrami. My wife loves the chicken salad . You get a bag of chips with your sandwiches. The staff is very friendly and treats you like family. Everything is made fresh and the beer is cold. This is a hidden gem. read more

Food was excellent and service was great. Decor and ambiance were cozy and enjoyable. A hidden gem, highly recommend it.

The ladies who served us our late lunch were funny and pleasant! I really enjoyed the turkey, probably the best lunch meat turkey I've had in a while. We also had the chili nachos! Great environment!!!! read more

Great service, delicious pastrami, questionable decorations. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Food came out fast and warm. The pastrami sandwich there is amazing! I love that most of the sandwiches you can get in half portions! You just need to try it. I would definitely recommend this place and the prices are not bad at all. It looks like a dive bar, but trust me...do it for the food. At least the pastrami. read more

The best Ruben sandwiches ever!!! Everything is fresh and made in front of you. Excellent service.

Have visited many times, their Reuben sandwiches are amazing! Always a good time, friendly staff and owner. Good place to take out of town visitors. Only drawback is that they don't have much on the menu that is gluten free, but what can you expect at a sandwich place? read more

The food was awesome and so was the service.. sweet sweet tea and check out the loaded potato salad. First time there but will definitely go back. read more

Today I was in the area of one of my favorite eateries and it was lunch time...so thought I' stop in for a favorite at the Red Mule Pub. I went in to order a take-out order. I placed my order for: Pastrami sandwich and cup of potato soup (not loaded). Paid my $20.85 and had a minimal wait. Hurried home to delve into my delicious memory of such good food! I had a brown paper bag with my cup of soup and a handful of crackers. The Styrofoam container contained my whole sandwich, the super pickle and a snack bag of potato chips. I took my first bit....only to discover, I couldn't bite it off! Not a tooth problem, it was due to a lot of gristle on the pastrami!!! OMG....what a disappointment! I opened the whole sandwich up to discover there were several areas of gristle throughout both halves along with quite a large quantity of fat also. I cut off all of the gristle (it was in no way chewable) and also removed some of the fat. So the sandwich was smaller but tasty and the bread was good. As for the soup....it was OK. Just not the same soup anymore. Sometimes things change and along with the meat quality, and evidentially the recipe. Granted it's been quite a lot of time since I've been there but ended up to be a total bad experience for a great memory! :( I won't be going back, anytime soon. I don't mind paying the New cost but $20.85 but that was much too much for pastrami of that quality! Especially when the meat on the sandwich had to be re-butchered before it was edible. Not worth the price of 'that' lunch! Pastrami Sandwich: $13.99, Soup $5.59, Tax $1.27 = $20,85 read more

First time customer. We went with a motorcycle group and they were so accommodating. The food was fresh, delicious and plentiful. I had the pub salad and wow, it was awesome, so much meat, crisp fresh lettuce. Others had sandwiches which were plentiful and no one had one complaint. Husband had roast beef sandwich and meat was fresh made there, was still warm when he got his meal. Definitely will be returning. read more

This little place has the BEST lunch sandwiches ever!!! Unless your very hungry only order a half.

Our friend, Mr. C., recommended if we are in the Brooksville area, check out the Red Mull Pub. We were surprised when 11 of us approach this place inside a shopping mall searching for a comfort and cozy place for dinner. First there were two small tables in front of the restaurant and appeared to be an average local eatery. Once inside, it is transformed into a completely different world! Memorabilia extensively used to decorate this sandwich/Pub. Pictures, antiques and artifacts cover the wall. Cold beers and wines are served with sandwiches. This is exactly what we are looking for! Red Mull Reuben, their signature sandwich is packed with corned beef, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and Russian dressing on rye bread. They generally served with just fresh rye bread or pressed upon request. I have the pastrami Reuben with Pumpernickel bread and Cole slaw. The Pumpernickel bread was so soft and fresh, now I can see why they only pressed the sandwich upon request. The Cole slaw was fresh, crunchy and creamy. A great sandwich meal! Kielbasas with sauerkraut was also served and the cream of Potato soup was creamy and thick with potato flavor. Super friendly wait staff! Thanks, Mr. C. for your recommendation! We were not disappointed! read more

Great big sandwiches to fill ya up. Plenty of refilled drinks. Oh and the warm potato salad is the very best!

We took a chance on this one...it was well worth it!! I think others have mentioned the location so I'll skip that (strip mall hole in the wall) but don't be thrown by that. Really neat atmosphere, I posted pix of it. Let's get to the food: This is pretty much soup and sandwich stuff. Very good menu, corned beef is their attraction but there are lots of alternatives: pastrami, turkey, roast beef, baloney (!), they had meat and cheese samplers, potato soup daily and a soup of the day. We chose half Rueben sandwiches and had a cup of the soup of the day - tomato basil. Soup was excellent but could have been heated a little more. The sandwiches were good although my corn beef was a touch grizzly. We were given chips in a bag a a monster dill pickle with the sandwich. Our waitress (and all the staff) we very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Had lunch there. The other day sat outside. They brought out extra chairs. Food is excellent potato soup off the chart. Excellent we will be back. read more

Read a lot of awesome reviews for the Red Mule Pub and went in with high expectations for an awesome St Patty's Day Corned Beef and Cabbage dinner. So disappointed. The corned beef was served on a paper plate with a roll and had absolutely no flavor. There was about 1/4 cup of cabbage with three baby carrots and one small potato in a paper bowl. Again, no flavor. Hubby got a Reuben after seeing people rave about them. Bread not toasted, corned beef was cold and barely any sauerkraut. The potato salad was good. Servers were very friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food was subpar and overpriced based on the quality. read more

One of the best Reuben sandwiches I've ever had. Quaint little pub ambience and a very personable owner. Have been there several times and haven't found any food item lacking generous portions and great taste. read more

Used to love their Rueben and potato soup, but it's not the same now. They won't even toast the bread, so it's a very cold sandwhich with far less meat than years ago. Potato soup was like glue last time. The place looks very dingy and needs a good cleaning. read more

Stopped by the Red Mule again and we had another great meal! The Reuben sandwich was excellent and the server did an amazing job of taking care of us! Anytime we are in the Red Mule area, this is our choice to get awesome food and great service! read more

Honestly this is probably the best sandwich place I've ever been. Nachos, French dip and Cuban are all incredible. Also very nice staff and cool atmosphere with lots of antiques. 11/10 stars. A must eat in Brooksville. read more

Red Mule Pub - Sandwiches Near Me - Brooksville, Florida

This is one of these hometown establishments that you cannot miss. Fantastic service, excellent pricing and the quality of food is top-notch. I had a turkey and cheddar sandwich that was absolutely the best turkey sandwich I've ever eaten. The turkey was so moist and plentiful I almost wanted to bring a pound of it home. Plenty of cheese melted through top-quality bread that didn't Crumble veggies to top the sandwich that were incredibly crispy and fresh. Even the pickles Served with the sandwiches were crispy the red Mule got it right. My wife got a tuna sandwich, Which you could tell that the tuna was homemade the tuna spoke for itself on the sandwich. It didn't taste cheap, You could tell that they had their own blend of spices and or dressings added to it that made is incredible. We will most certainly be back to the red mule again and again, thank you for an amazing lunch! read more

It's been years, but I absolutely love this nice sandwich shop. Choose it all! My go to in FL

I have been going to the red mule for years and it was fantastic but, the last 3 or 4 times in a row it has not been good at all. I always order the pastrami sandwich which I love but, it has been stringy, fatty and grizzally a far cry from what it use to be, very disappointed. It seems like the quality has gone down and the prices have gone up. I don't mind paying good money for good food but not for what I have been getting lately. Hoping that his is just an aberration because I am really missing a good pastrami sandwich. read more

One of our favorite hole in the wall hiding spots. Absolutely the best Rueben's in the county. Fast and Friendly service. A true gem in Hernando county! read more

Who needs all these artisan sanwiches? This place serves up comfort food in the form of a giant overstuffed sandwich. They're great, reasonably priced, and fast. They're also one of the few pubs around here to have strongbow. The red mule combo is delicious. Corned beef, pastrami, sour kraut, Swiss cheese, and special sauce. Choice of white, wheat, rye, or pumpernickle bread. Be wary of ordering a soup or sides, because you probably won't have room for it all. Great lunch spot, fills up quick, but the turnover time on tables is good. Must eat if you like sandwiches and are in the area. read more

I guess I had different expectations, and feel like I payed a little bit too much. Sandwiches are microwaved instead of heated on a stove and $9 for that seems a bit high. It was decent enough, but overall I feel like I was misguided. The liverwurst was very good, and worth the trip, however there isn't anything that would send me running back. The young lady server was a bit terse with us and I didn't feel welcome at first. The crazy guy talking to himself in the corner really sealed the deal though. Go here for cheap beer and moon pies. read more

My husband and I had lunch here with two friends last week. None of us are from Brooksville, so we found this little pub on yelp. When you walk in, you'll see a small seating area in the front, the bar on the right, and more seating on the left. It's pretty dim inside and has a lot of cool memorabilia on the walls and ceiling. I ordered the Red Mule sub, which had ham, roast beef, turkey, salami, bologna, provolone cheese, lettuce, tomato, and Italian dressing on white bread. It also came with a bag of Lays potato chips. The sub was pretty good! I was hungry, but I could only finish half of it because they piled the meat on so high! The service was friendly and attentive. Our waitress and the guy behind the bar were helpful and even offered lots of info about the memorabilia when we had random non-food-related questions. They were good sports! I enjoyed the experience and I would probably come back for lunch again if I lived in the area. read more

I love coming here. I can always expect a great sandwich every time. My favorite is the Red Mule combo made into a Reuben. Perfectly melted cheese over super thin corned beef and pastrami stacked high on fresh bread. The Red Mule is the perfect pub atmosphere with pictures, antiques and artifacts covering the walls. Friendly staff, good music and quick service. We try to come here at least every couple of months even though we don't live anywhere near the Brooksville area. read more
