My husband and I stopped in on a Thursday evening around 7pm and the place was pretty full. We sat ourselves at a table in the back room, and I noticed how laid back the place was, which is something I really appreciate. Sadly, it seemed that the relaxed vibe extended a bit too far and reflected on their cleanliness, as I noticed all of the chair rails were dusty, the floors a bit littered, our table sticky, and the plastic menus in need of replacing. Service, however, was wonderful. Our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive given how busy she was. My husband was happy with their on tap beer selection, deciding on Red Oak ($3 on Thursdays!). I went with a margarita and it wasn't the best, but thankfully I didn't pay much for it since it was also on special. They were out of the southwestern egg rolls I initially ordered, so I ended up going with the Philly cheesesteak and homemade chips. I enjoyed the cheesesteak's fresh bread; plenty of tender meat, peppers, and onions; and gooey cheese. It could have used more mayonnaise, but it was still quite good. The homemade chips were tasty but undercooked; if I had been hungrier, I definitely would have returned them and asked for a fresh batch. My husband absolutely devoured the cheeseburger and fries he ordered. He said that it was one of the best burgers he's had in quite a while, and this is a guy who loves burgers and eats them often. I want to return to Piedmont Ale House in the future. I think there are some things they seem to do really well, namely burgers and beer at really reasonable prices!

While our server was nice, we were never offered a single refill of drinks/checked on once from ordering to trying desperately to flag her down for the check. It wasn't crazy busy when we went, so either she hated the sports team sweatshirt I had on (Go Ravens!) or just wasn't attentive. Several parties were seated after us, ordered, and paid before we could get her attention. The wings were the best cook I've ever had - that pickle-brined breading was something I'll think about and compare every other wing to. The sauce was okay - nothing special and certainly not a lot of depth to it, but the breading really saved it. I would give 5 stars if the service was present at all during our time there.

Nestled along the river, it has such a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. The food was just as impressive. My parents both ordered the burger with fries, and they couldn't stop talking about how juicy and flavorful the burgers were. The fries were fresh, hand-cut, and perfectly cooked. I had the chicken tortilla soup, and it was delicious, comforting, and flavorful. The service was friendly and attentive. The Eddy Pub exceeded our expectations. Between the beautiful setting, great food, and excellent service, it's absolutely worth the trip. We'll definitely be back the next time we're anywhere near the area!

True to my word (see review from January 2025), we gave this place another try - this time for a…read morelunch for four. Three of us had sandwiches or wraps, and the fourth had a salad. The sandwiches were delicious, though difficult to eat as the breading kept falling off of the fried chicken since it was a bit too thick. The salad looked disappointing, though our guest is not one to complain. The fried halloumi cheese was too heavily breaded - at a proportion of almost 1:1 cheese:breading. Service remains sketchy. Unsweet teas were (eventually) refilled, but with sweet tea, etc. It's the only game in town, really. But if they want people to drive to Saxapahaw, they may want to up their game if possible.

Not sure why, but it was missing whatever makes a good reuben. I also had a Cuban sandwich. That's a new addition that was decent but not amazing. My wife had fish and chips. The fish was good. One of the kids had chicken tenders which were good. The other kid had shepherd's pie which was bland. The others at the table said everything was fine, but I didn't taste.

It took a…read moregood 4-5 minutes sitting at the bar before we were greeted, but after that service was prompt and efficient. We ordered the 1/2 order of fried banana peppers, dry rub wings, a bacon jam burger and tots. Oh! and beer! The star of the night was the banana peppers. Tangy and delicious, the small was huge! The wings were def done right and although I'm a blue cheese fan, the ranch was better. I'm knocking off one star for the burger. It was $16 (with tots) but it was tiny! It had one slice of red onion, a few shreds of lettuce, maybe a teaspoon of bacon jam and I'm not certain it had cheese at all. It tasted great, and the tots were perfect, but for that price I expected a burger that was bigger and more substantial than a $4 burger from Jimmy's. With all the other stuff (we shared) we were full but on its own, that burger would've been a disappointment. I'll go back for those banana peppers and wings, but I'll skip that little bitty burger.
