Good food, good beer selection, solid service. The line was a bit long and it took a while to be seated everything else was great.

Very good for a quick lunch and beer while waking through downtown. We were told it would be a 20 min wait (it was a Saturday at 2pm), so we said OK and within 5 minutes bar seats became available so we decided to sit at the bar. The service was good. Atmosphere was what you would expect for a pub. I got the pub burger, which was great! I would definitely come here again! read more

Six Pence is great. Very good food, service and price. I live in Charlotte and have been up to Blowing Rock two weeks in a row and chose Six Pense for dinner on both events. The fish n chips is by far the best menu item, with the Shephards Pie a close second. read more

I've been here many time and mostly enjoyed both the food and the service, but we ended up walking out on our most recent visit. We were seated quickly and then promptly forgotten. We even asked two servers for assistance- read more

You MUST order the mac n cheese bites appetizer...delicious! I ordered a soup and sandwich as my meal. The turkey sandwich was good, the tomato bisque was just ok. My husband ordered the French onion soup, which was better than my soup. This was our second time there and I'm sure we will be back on our next trip to NC read more

The staff and service was the worst I have ever experienced. They refused to accommodate and were incredibly rude.

My family visits Blowing Rock at least once a year. We always make it a point to eat at Six Pence pub. The location is right in the heart of downtown Blowing Rock and so convenient. It offers the perfect Irish pub feel, and when the weather permits the outdoor seating is a wonderful option. The food is great, my personal favorite is the Shepard's Pie, my husband likes the fish and chips. The Bangers and Mash is AMAZING and I highly recommend starting your meal with this as an appetizer! Service is great, too. Only downfall is, due to the location, they are always busy so be prepared to wait. Pull up to the bar for a Guineas while you wait or, if you have kids, browse some shops nearby. Well worth it if you like Irish fare! read more

This place is absolutely fantastic. The bangers and mash were delicious, as well as the scotch eggs. The wings were quite possibly the best I'd ever had. If you are staying nearby and looking for a great lunch or dinner, stop here. The service was great, and we did have to wait, but that just says something about how good this place is. read more

Dined twice on our visit to Blowing Rock. Great service, great food. Can't wait to go back. Must try the S'mores Adult Hot Chocolate. read more

They are the epitome of awful service. We waited an hour for a table and showed up early for the estimated time to find that they had given away our table. After they split up our party to sit us, we had to wait another 45 minutes to get our food which came at all separate times. When the food finally arrived half of it was incorrect and had to be sent back. I would only recommend this place if you aren't hungry and don't mind standing for an hour. read more

I really liked the ambiance of this pub. It is very authentic and they serve very good food. It was very nice on a fall day to come in and warm up with a pint of beer. read more

Service was great and food was good. I was shocked they do not have a kids menu as their prices are a little high! I think they need to add a kids menu with all the families that visit BR. read more

Had a great lunch with on a cool rainy day. Great onion soup, chefs salad and spouse had fish and chips. All excellent. Good beer selection and footy on TV. Authentic pub atmosphere. read more

I would have given less than 1 star had that option been available. Service was subpar even for a single patron. 15 minutes for a server to show up at a single table in the bar even with open tables in main dining room. Food was average but overpriced. I won't be back but I doubt that will matter. read more

Food was excellent, as the usual. But the hostess were very rude and snapped at us to close the door behind us when we first walked in. I went to get a drink at the bar and the bartender told me to move my stuff so someone else could sit there when I was planning on sitting there myself. Also waited 30 more minutes than what we were told for our table. read more

Service was extremely slow. When we needed refills our waitress was nowhere to be found. When food arrived, it was cold. Portions were small. First time we see the manager, she arrives with our drinks only to explain what we ordered was illegal. After her reading us the riot act, she goes on and on about the difficulties in her personal life. After her uncomfortable monologue, she held our drinks ransom until I apologized for ordering something that was illegal (although the server allowed us to order it). I was unaware that ordering two drinks at one time was illegal. Another note, because the waitress was MIA most of the evening, at the end of the night, I went to the bar for a refill. I paid for the drink, then the manager came over, gave me a refund, and yelled at me saying we can only order through our server (the server that was MIA). We only had 1-3 drinks per person plus food, so it wasn't like we were belligerent. Our table still left a tip above 20%. Needless to say, we will not return to Six Pence Pub. read more

We always hit this place when we are in town. Great pub grub, and a nice beer selection. Like the patio area quite a bit. I would recommend! read more

We had lunch in this charming pub. The food was delicious and authentic. The staff was friendly and courteous. An overall enjoyable experience read more

Really like the pub feel. Something different in blowing rock. Good pub foods and drink options.

Pretty good we had the Shepard's pie. The place is cozy and warm a good place to eat on a cool evening. The hostess had the personality of a shark? But the waitress was very nice. All in all a nice place. read more

Good quality basic pub fare. Ate lunch--burger and ploughman's. Both better than average for a fair price. Love that it allows dogs on patio. read more

Nice pub. Service was fast and efficient. Had the fish and chips. Excellent cod served with home fries. Excellent beer. Selection. All were happy and best of all, you can finish the evening with ice cream almost next door. read more

We recently had 2 meals on the patio with our pet. Staff is friendly, attentive and the food is good. Good crab cake,burger and home fries. Chocolate cake is worth the calories! read more

My husband had the club sandwich, he said it was decent... Just another club sandwich. He asked for pumpernickel & got white bread, he wouldn't let me send it back though, so that was his fault. Waitress didn't check up on us until later anyway. I had fish & chips, expecting them to be very good since this is an English style pub. The fish looked great but was pretty tasteless, including the batter, which was very greasy. I substituted sweet potato fries, they were also greasy, more than others I've had elsewhere. Service was mediocre. Nice waitress but she didn't check back much. All in all I wish we'd had lunch elsewhere. read more

The food is not great, but it hit the spot, so I'm giving it 4 stars. Also, our server was very nice. There are few restaurants to choose from in Blowing Rock probably because the ppl visiting BR are not particularly sophisticated. (Overheard a family standing in line say, "What is British food?") So if this place were anywhere else I would probably give it 3 stars. Honestly if the prices were slightly lower I would have been happier, but the quality was too low for the expense. Had the Ploughman's Lunch and again, for the price they were a little stingy on some of the items. The plate was big, but mostly made up of a giant mediocre salad. The french onion soup was actually really nice, not over salted like a lot of places do it, which I prefer, but another person might say it was bland. Definitely needed to add the soup to my dining or I would have left hungry from the Ploughman's Lunch. read more

Fish and chips here were delicious and view out the front window during the gentle snowfall at night was awe-inspiring! Home-town atmosphere and pleasant staff/guests. Merry Christmas! read more

Fantastic!! The shepherd's pie was delish. The bangers and mash were phenomenal. But the fish and chips was the best. Very impressed!

No good. Typical bar food. No flavor. Waitress recommended Gouda burger over shepherds pie and the burger was burnt and had zero flavor. Couldn't taste Gouda, spinach or mushrooms. Potato salad that came with it was more onion than potato. Extremely disappointing. Was shocked they had 4 stars!!!! read more

Was the best fish and chips I have ever tasted, my wife also thoroughly enjoyed her shepherd's pie. The service was excellent and very friendly. read more

Nice people but give me a break, $13 for a tasteless Shepards pie? Basically it was one scoop of Prego meat sauce ($1), a scoop of mashed potatoes ($.50) and a little cheese ($.25), total cost to them at most $1.75 and they're selling it for over $13? read more

The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The service was great. Definitely a pleasant experience.

Kelly our waitress was awesome and hopefully gets paid really well! She kept an eye on us even when every rable was full. Had the mac and cheese bites which were yummy. Husband had the burger which he said was very tasty. I had the chicken fingers which were done well and very moist. read more

I loved this place! The food was phenomenal and they had some very nice beers on tap. I'm kind of a beer snob but the quality and the price was right. They had a full bar with a bunch of nice hard liquors although I didn't try any. They have lots of options for vegetarians (like myself) and carnivores (like my friends) alike. read more

I experienced an wonderful dinner here tonight. I had the bangers and mash with a french onion soup and it was great. The atmosphere here is exquisite and I will return here many more times in the near future. And I would highly recommend this place to anyone that comes to blowing rock. I have so many memories coming here over the years. It was just a great place to have dinner with my family. read more

Had the fish and chips. Wife had the Shepard's pie. All and all a good meal. Priced right for the experience

Nice English pub atmosphere. Prices about average. The four in our party rated the food (mostly sandwiches) about 3. Paltry fish portion with the cod sandwich didn't even cover the bun and was a rip-off at $12+, but the hamburger was rated excellent. Service was very attentive and courteous. Good selection of beers and ales. read more

This is even a stretch to rate it one star. The service was absolutely terrible. I've never been to a place that, when you ask if it's possible to have the food without something, they flat out tell you no. Usually they say something along the lines of "let me ask the kitchen staff." So then my husband orders the salmon instead. It was so raw on the inside if there was water near by it could have swam away! When we sent it back the server just shrugged it off. Again, I've never eaten someplace where if there was a pretty clear issue, the manager didn't come by to try to make it right. I'm not a fan of leaving such negative reviews, I usually use Yelp to spread the word on places that you'd want to go to. But guys I'm telling you, this place is dirty (trust me, my 3 year old needed to use the rest room several times while we were there) the service is not good and the food quality was pretty low. I hope that this review helps them to see the areas that are lacking and make some adjustments. I ate here about 5 years ago and after this last visit I remember why I haven't been back. read more

Exactly what we were looking for, a local diner with local charm. It was a little crowded for a small space but it gave us a cozy feel. The salmon and capers appetizer was so good. The drink 23 was also pretty good. Our waitress amelia was very friendly and made our meal fun. read more

Beef Guinness, great. Fish and chips, great. Service, great. Overall experience, great.

Good food and service. Came in for drinks and apps. Food simple and well prepared. Beer flights! Husband said his mixed drink was well made. Background music is pleasantly all over the place. Relieved to end up here after being ignored for nearly 15 minutes at a spot just up the street. We had drinks on the table and food on its way 15 minutes into our meal here! read more
