    Bangers and Mash
    Michelle T.

    We wandered here after visiting Rio to Red Winery and as it was our first time exploring Sherman - the Wig and Gavel was such a gem! The pub culture was just like London, food was great as was the service and I've experienced nothing like this since my last visit over the pond. Should you find yourself in Sherman pop in for a late lunch, afternoon cocktail or dinner. Doubt you'll be disappointed.

    Bangers and mash

    We came across this Sherman-gem tonight and we were highly impressed! Jennifer sat us at a cute table and was very informative. Will the bartender made some incredibly tasty cocktails - we really loved the dirty Robannan. We ordered bangers and mash, which was served by Logan, who was very, very charming... service with a smile;-) Logan's banger dog was huge. We would highly recommend this place for fantastic food & drink, served by an amazing crew!

    A quaint hidden spot that we stumbled upon. George was very friendly and the service was excellent.

    We found this pub by (happy) accident. The staff were very friendly, and the food was really good. We had a trip to the UK last year, and this place is very authentic.

    What a great find. Love the ambiance. Out with life long friends and this is a nice spot to have a cocktail.

    It's lovely!

    Cool little pub. Quiet and relaxing. Owner is a really nice English guy. Very friendly place. However one draft beer was $8. A bit pricey.

    I've been trying to visit this place for ONE WHOLE YEAR, and my visits to Sherman haven't allowed…read moreit before. FINALLY, I got to visit and I will never make a trip back to the area and not go. I'm up that way about once every few months and this place will be at the top of my visit list. I ordered the Chicken Shroom Melt... y'all, they served it with a fork. That should tell you everything you need to know! The chicken breast was pounded thin or butterflied so it was easier to eat...but it was loaded with cremini mushrooms, onions and spinach, all in a cheese Alfredo sauce. It didn't taste overwhelmingly like Alfredo though. It was so beautiful and messy, that fork came in handy! The tomato basil soup for dipping was good! My little girl got a kids ham and cheese and shared the soup with me. The flavor was great and was deep and rich, not watery or thin at all. My boyfriend got the bacon Mac and cheese grilled cheese. Yup, it had all that in between two beautiful toasted pieces of crisp bread. It would be perfect on a cold winters day with the tomato soup. For drinks, I had the 903 hard seltzer. They threw a dash of cranberry juice in it. I'm a BIG had seltzer fan and this was wonderful. Crisp and CLEAN. It had a great, fresh, taste. I also tried the Cannonball Run, which is a sour beer. It was so amazing I snagged a 4 pack to bring home with me. Needless to say, I can't wait to come back!!!

    The OG grilled cheese was amazing! My friend got the Caprese grilled cheese and it was awesome…read morealso. The sour dough bread is the make or break. Great job!!!

    This bar advertises itself as a Chicago Bears bar. I was in town last weekend visiting family and…read moredecided to go to this bar to watch the Packers game with a group of six. We walked into the bar 90 minutes before kickoff and found a table in the middle of the bar that could accommodate our party and had good viewing of the screens. As we went to sit down, a man approached us and told us that the table we were sitting at was for some "regulars" and asked us to move. The table had no sign on it that it was reserved and this man did not identify himself as an owner or manager of the establishment. Choosing to take the high road, I moved our group to another table that could accommodate our party that was off to the side. Sure enough, the "regulars" came rolling in shortly before kickoff to their "unreserved" reserved table. This is just bad business. And discourages people who are not "regulars" from coming to the bar. I regularly attend a Chicago Bears bar in Los Angeles where I live and have never had such issues. There are no unspoken "reserved" tables for "regulars." It's completely first come, first serve as it should be. If you want your "regulars" to have their table waiting for them when they arrive, just stick a reserved sign on it. Or tell them to get there early. Not difficult. We also waited forever for our drinks while the "regulars" at their "unreserved" reserved table were kept fully stocked. The service and the food was mid anyway and not worth the price. Trust me, I picked up what you were laying down. We aren't regulars, so it's whatever. I won't be back.

    Food is great. I was missing Camelot's in the Bay Area and this spot is honestly a bit better…read moreoverall. Arrive hungry lol. Burgers are massive. My kid had one and we had to cut it in 4's. She loved it. We tried the pretzel and it was great. I had fish n chips and dad had the bangers n mash. All amazing. Desert was sooo delicious. Like I said bring your appetite. It's a casual spot with festive holiday decor. Service was 5 stars. I will for sure be back here.
