The menu has a large variety of options, from wood-fired pizzas and burgers to pulled pork and brisket sandwiches. We ordered the 12-inch wood-fired pizza with pepperoni, sausage, and peppers, and it was excellent. The crust was light, thin, and had that delicious wood-fired flavor. I also appreciated that they used thin slices of sausage instead of sausage crumbles--it made every bite better. The brisket sandwich was also very tasty and full of flavor. My only suggestion would be to serve it on a sturdier roll, such as a Kaiser or torpedo roll, instead of white toast, since the bread fell apart pretty quickly. Overall, the food was delicious, the service was great, and the dog-friendly patio makes this a place we'll definitely visit again. I'd happily recommend Poor Man's Pub.

Was looking back to visiting this year after two great experiences last year. WOW what a difference…read morea year makes! Got there around 2:30 on a Saturday, first sign was there were only 6 people at the bar, otherwise the place was empty. Sat down and asked for a menu and was told that there's no food service at the bar because they are short staffed in the kitchen and they don't even know if they can stay open for dinner that night! However we could move five feet to the left and sit at a table if we want to order anything and it would be off the dinner menu not lunch. We opted to stay at the bar and just have a cocktail since we did not want to sit at a table nor did we want the dinner menu. There were two bartenders, one brand new and definitely learning and the other was a very arrogant gentleman with long hair that needed to be pulled back immediately (he kept running his hands through his sweaty hair and then touching lemons, limes and ice). We ordered two vodka sodas (Kettle) and those were $20 each for a small glass with flat club soda. The male bartender proceeded to go up and down the bar trying to convince people to order his "world famous caramel espresso martini" and if you wanted to know what was in it you "could order it and watch me make it." It was very sleezy and off putting. The bar was dirty, unstocked and was told that they were out of many of the purées for drinks. The group next to us asked where the oysters were from and besides being told the same thing we were with food service, the bartender said that she was pretty sure they were out of all oysters! The whole experience was disappointing and really put a damper on our day. New management/new ownership is the only thing that will save this place as everyone else we talked to on the island had very similar experiences. Would be stunned if they were still in business next year. Really sad because it's a beautiful spot, however competition is tough and I would rather spend my money elsewhere!

The views are beautiful, they had a live band playing, and frozen cocktail machines, so the atmosphere was definitely fun. Unfortunately the service didn't match the setting. We were there with a big group for a birthday, and although they did separate my check like I asked they got my order wrong three different times. They brought me out the complete wrong steak with fries at first and I was so confused because my mean came with rice not fries and we're midallions not a full steak. The waitress said "why didn't you say that, that's what you ordered" and the person next to me was like "umm no she ordered the madallians" because I literally did. By the time I finally got the right meal, everyone else had already finished eating. Honestly I didn't even want it anymore but I ate it because I was tired of sending it back. What really bothered me was how it was handled. After three mistakes and having to talk to someone (more than one person) multiple times, they only took $13 off the $44 Carne Asada Filet. It felt like they didn't really care how frustrating the experience was, especially since everyone else had to wait for me to eat. If the person sitting next to me hadn't spoken up for me, I probably would have just stayed quiet. At least they got the wine right ‍ The location is awesome, and I really wanted to love this place, but based on my experience, the service needs a lot of improvement.
