This could be such a long review, but I’m going to try to stay on point.
Great north country/lake atmosphere, very friendly and welcoming staff.
It’s best if you’ve got a designated driver so you can try and enjoy the interesting cocktails. My wife had a Don Lockwood ($15) – a mix of bourbon, maple syrup, Islay scotch whisky, and chocolate bitters with a huge twist of orange. With a really nice smokey flavor this may have actually been the highlight of the evening.
I had a Common Roots Lager draft ($7) because it was the only draft available of the six listed on the menu. Our server read my mind and opined that they shouldn’t put items on the menu if they don’t have them available. I don’t know why I was not charged the $6 Happy Hour price, unless HH prices are only available at the bar. But that should have been printed on the menu.
My wife ordered the Barbequed Peel & Eat Pub Prawns ($22) with “soppin’ toast” that was not toasted. The prawns were perfectly cooked (except for one) in a very flavorful broth. The untoasted potato bread was fresh, delicious, and probably much better at soppin’ than toast would have been.
I ordered the Smokehouse Combination Platter ($32) comprised of sliced Texas brisket, pulled pork, two beer brats, and two sides. For sides I chose coleslaw and BBQ yam steak fries. There was plenty of delicious, black-charred bark on both meats. I kept alternating between the four house-made sauces, each of which our server was able to describe in great detail, trying to find a favorite. A tie between the Georgia Mustard and the slightly spicy BBQ sauce narrowly beat out the Alabama White and the Carolina Copper. Those BBQ yam fries were delicious. My personal preference is for slightly more smokey flavored meat. The brats were good as were my two slices of the potato bread.
Definitely worth another visit.
