I got caught in a conversation with some friendly person. Anyhow, looks like a fun spot for drinks. Beer is all can and bottle and decent selection. Prices for craft beer $5-6.

It was a lot smaller inside than we expected but it was nice. We were seated quickly but it took a bit for our server to come. We finally ordered ( nothing crazy - we all got sandwiches). Then it felt like our server just disappeared. One of the other servers heard us talking while she was servicing her table and told us that they had some event going on outside so food was taking longer to come out. No update from our own server. I had to ask ther other server for another drink. It was kind of irritating to see tables that came in after us getting their food before us. Now onto the food - it was pretty good. We all enjoyed our sandwiches. I got a reuben with fries. The rye bread on my reuben was nice - crispy crust yet soft. Very good ratio of meat to saukraut. The fries were eh. Very limp with no crispy at all. I've honestly gotten better fries off a food truck. They look crispy in the photo but they were not. So overall- drink was good, sandwich was delicious but fries were not and service was not good at all.

Chicken was tender and flavorful and the marinara sauce was perfect! The mozzarella cheese was gooey and wonderful! My hubby had the Doc Ed's burger. It was huge.

We'll be back on our next trip.

As soon as I walked in, I was immediately greeted with a friendly smile from a waitress. The atmosphere was very warm, cozy, and welcoming. I ordered an appetizer, Spinach + Artichoke dip served with pita chips. It was served hot, which I appreciated it. Personally I would have preferred to have more of a cheesier dip. For my main entree I ordered a buffalo chicken wrap with fresh cut fries. While I would have preferred thick fresh fries, these were shoe string fries and tasted decent. Overall my meal was okay but I was expecting bigger + bolder tastes. I would visit again, but would definitely try to the burger which I heard from a friend is really good.

The last time I went I ended up getting in about an hour from closing time (not on purpose!) but even then the service was friendly and fast. I got a beer and fish and chips, since I'd been craving it for a while. It was decent, but not the best I've had. Somewhat bland and heavy on the batter. I do love their shoestring fries, they are super crispy and well-seasoned (and are super yummy with ranch if you like that). I've had their chicken tenders before, and I'd probably order those over the fish. I'd like to come back and try more items on the menu, though! My partner got the mussels and shrimp which are served in a nice spicy sauce (YUM). Overall a good dining experience and I'll definitely be coming back in the future.

There are relatively few dining options in Mansfield Ohio on a Sunday, thankfully Hudson and Essex is one that is available! We arrived without Reservations and seated in the dining room. We usually prefer the bar; however, as it was Sunday dinner, we wanted to be more proper. On Sundays, they do offer a dinner menu and a Sunday dinner menu. Their Sunday dinner menu is very good! We've had offerings on it before and have never been disappointed. This time we did decide to order off the regular menu. After ordering a round of cocktails to start with, we ordered a jalapeño flatbread appetizer special to start. Must say that that flatbread was extremely delicious and hot! The jalapeño slices could've been deveined and deseeded to tame the heat a little. For our main courses, I ordered their Caesar salad with blackened chicken, my wife their small filet, and mom their pierogi appetizer. Our meals came out well presented and delicious! It was the first time I've ever had their Caesar salad and I enjoyed it immensely. My wife always enjoys their steak and my mom raved about the pierogies. No formal desserts were ordered; however, I ordered a last word, which was delicious! Alec really is a great bartender and can make just about anything! All in all, another well done dinner at Mansfield's best restaurant!
