We are rarely in the area, but since we had some errands to take care of that led us to be in the nearby, and we didn't know what to eat, then my wife said how about some fish and chips from a different place, then it hit me that I had this place bookmarked and saved for some time now, and now was the perfect time. We came there and parked in the public parking building that was free. We came inside and there was a party of two in front of us waiting. The waiter, seemed to be the only one, came by and said hi to everyone and his thanks for our patience and wait. He later came by and took them to their seats. They requested outside, and the took them. We waited a few more minutes, then it was our turn and he was ready to lead us to our seats, but we asked for outside as well. He asked us to give him a few minutes to clean up a table for us. After so, he sat us and gave us menus. The service is good, considering he is the only one, but he moves about pretty quickly and still giving everyone his all. The table was pretty nasty. It was sticky. But we wiped it down and proceeded onto our night. We ended up ordering the two piece fish and chips and their pub burger with no cheese as my wife is lactose intolerant. People really need to realize that smoking is smoking, it does not mean that vaping is ok. Respect others by keep that to yourself, especially in a restaurant. The food came out pretty fast, and very hot and fresh. One of the fish was perfect and crispy, the second pieces was lacking. It was soggy and not fried long enough. The fish itself was great. It had a nice texture, firmness, and lightly salted. The batter was bland and could use some salt. However, eating it with the tartar sauce was amazing. The tartar sauce is perfection. Definitely a good fish and chips combo when consuming with the tartar. The steak fries were perfect. The burger was completely lacking. I thought it should be sent back. The idea was ok, but the execution was wrong. The burger was overcooked, way too overcooked. If it was cooked correctly, it would have been a great burger. The onion rings are great though. Great flavor, great batter, good frying. Overall, the waiter made the experience good because he was on top of it. The food was ok, as there are things that would make it better. But if you have never been here, definitely come try it. Remember, the atmosphere is still a pub, not a family type restaurant, but is ok for a family to come here as well.

Pub food has lots of comfort so it's a good place to indulge and unwind after a stressful day. Which seems to be everyday these days. I opted for the cheese toasty but they were out of tomatoes that day so I didn't get to experience the full Monty. Wife got the fish sandwich. Tasty slaw on it. Daughter got the steak frites. These had skinny fries while the sandwiches had thick pub fries. Didn't order any drinks but most people looked happy with the selections. You can ask to get 10% off your meal if you go to a movie and show your ticket. I asked our server about it and said she'd take care of it. Well she didn't. Whatever! I figure it's tough making a profit these days so I didn't push it. Wouldn't want the pub to go under for just $8. Service seemed pretty slow as it may have been understaffed the night we went. Several people outside waited quite a while for their checks to be handled. Didn't take any pictures, plenty are already posted in other reviews. Free Parking is in the garage adjacent. That is a nice draw in Newhall.

Haven't been back here in years. I recall that we stopped going to the Backwoods Inn because it was…read moretoo "hit or miss"with the food quality. Decided to give them a try for dinner tonight (Saturday, 6/20) and the food was very good. Started off with the garlic toast which was nice and garlicky without being overpowering. Nice crunch and toastiness as it was on sourdough; the sourdough tang and garlic butter was a great match. Kiddo ordered the Alfredo with chicken. Great portion size, plenty of grilled chicken, and sourdough toast. Evidently it was good as the leftovers were boxed up and taken home and this kid almost never takes leftovers. Wife had the ribeye (medium rare - it was cooked perfectly) and the twice baked potato. I ordered the porterhouse medium rare (also cooked perfectly) with the twice baked potato. Love twice baked potato and they did a good job with them here. Both steaks were very good and the hint of mesquite was again spot on without being overpowering. All of us choose to go with the salad versus soup (clam chowder or soup of the day - corn chowder) which was fine. Nothing great, it was a salad. Typical lettuce, grated carrot, sliced cucumber, grape tomatoes with dressing (kiddo and I chose ranch whereas the wife has raspberry vinaigrette). The salads do come dressed so if you want to control the dressing, you have to ask for it on the side. My only complaint is that I forgot the steaks don't come seasoned. It is explicitly stated on the menu. If you want the steaks seasoned, you have to ask. I forgot. You can season with the salt and pepper shakers on the table but the salt doesn't penetrate the meat. That's my fault as I knew and forgot to ask for my steak to be seasoned. So no deductions for my mistake. No, they do not have Maldon's flaky salt. Again, unlike a higher class steak house where everything is a la carte, the steaks come with a potato (your choice of how you want it prepared), and choice of soup or salad. For what I may have paid for just myself at an upscale steakhouse, I paid for three albeit my child didn't order a steak. Before you criticize me and say that the quality of steak doesn't compare to a high end streak house, I agree. It simply does not. However, the quality of steaks for the price point of the meal punched above it's weight class tonight. It was a definite hit so I'm hoping to out this place back in our restaurant rotation for viable places to dine out.

I took a colleague on a Friday evening, talking up the tasty pizza and laid back vibe. I was warned that the kitchen was busy and the pizza would take longer than usual but I was prepared to wait and enjoy a couple of beers. Aware of the difficulties restaurant owners face, it was only upon closing my tab that I mentioned the unreasonable wait of 1 hour and 30 minutes for one pizza. Rather than acknowledging the oversight, Danielle, one of the managers, was condescending and aggressive, trying to justify the delay. Although I only spend on average $600-$700 a month, and my patronage will not impact their bottom line, it makes me sad to give an independent establishment such a poor review. but with all of the places out there to try, why give money to a place that employs and supports such negativity
