    Went to a party here. Food was fair catering food. Nice establishment with good service, plenty of parking . Restaurant side is foreperson theme.

    Amaretto ice cream

    This is for the bar area not the restaurant/banquet hall. On a Saturday late afternoon. SERVICE - very slow. Unless you're a regular and they know you, expect to wait to be helped. I came with one friend , self seated in the bar area, waited a while before someone finally noticed and asked if we need menus. Then took a while before someone could come and ask for our order. Food was fairly quick though. After eating and requesting getting check we waited 16 minutes for someone to come take the bill from our table. We were there a very long time because the slowness. Everyone is nice and friendly and you can tell this is a local place because the staff is chatty with the local customers. It's a great energy besides the timeliness. FOOD - the menu is all over the place. Great if you come here often there's something new to have every time. It includes the typical American bar food (nachos, wings, onion rings, mozz sticks). Then it has t, pasta, fish dishes, salads, specials. Tons of dessert options too (multiple cake flavors and ice cream flavors). The nachos were a huge portion, perfect for 2-3 people. I got it without the chili since I don't eat that and they were pretty bland and lacking cheese. If you eat chili it probably tastes better with it. The garlic shrimp appetizer is a very small portion just enough for a one person app. The French onion soup is classic but very salty. Lastly the dessert was absolutely delicious. This is where the money is yum! Had the cookies and cream and also Amaretto ice cream. It's a big portion good for two people if you wanted to split plates nicely too with chocolate syrup and whipped cream. LOCATION - off a busy street with a big private parking lot and some street parking. An entrance to the bar as well as an entrance to the main restaurant part. INSIDE - tons of seating. The bar area is huge with high tops and bar seating. Next to it through a glass window is the restaurant area with tons of seating. Lots of TVs too! The music was very loud and the music quality terrible so that was I pleasant. Overall I'd be back when I am in the area to try more of the menu. Need to be sure to have quicker service though I don't want to spend that many hours there again unless I'm eating/drinking enough. If you're local to this neighborhood check this place out and become a regular. Seems like a lot of the customers knew each other too.

    Cheesesteak

    Neat pub - wait staff extremely helpful and friendly. Got the potstickers and cheese steak. Pot stickers were very good and the dipping sauce was nice and thick. The cheesesteak was a little bland for my taste but was good nevertheless. I got a side of chipotle ranch and added it to the cheesesteak. Was the extra flavor I was looking for. Also tried it with the potstickers dipping sauce not too bad. I'd come back

    5 stars :) we went for prime rib Thursday night it was delicious ! Not to mention the drinks taste great. The owner and her husband are lovely people. Her husband took all the kids that were dining there [including my son] and brought them to pick out whatever candy they wanted. My son was so happy ! And then as we left my brother and the owner had a hug. Really awesome service friendly people fantastic owners and amazing drinks.

    Late lunch with family. I ordered Firehouse Bacon Cheeseburger, regular fries and Nacho starters. Big portion for a starter is the Nachos with the ground beef and cheese with tomatoes and green chilies, salsa and sour cream on the side. The Firehouse B&C burger serving is huge and the beef patties are juicy and tender. Fresh tomatoes and onions on it too. Clean, dark ambiance and moderately quiet during lunch. Not a lot of people at this time (3:45 pm). Moderate serving size and moderately priced. Will be back here again, soon.

    We had our daughters 1st birthday at The Firehouse yesterday and it was AMAZING! We held it in the banquet room which was a perfect size and had plenty of space for our group of 55. Lynn, Grace, and Brendon are just such wonderful people who worked with us and made our day perfect! The gals who worked our party, I wish I remembered all their names, were FANTASTIC. They would keep me updated on time and when to move on to dessert, singing, etc. so we didn't feel rushed. The food was phenomenal and I had everyone complimenting repeatedly how delicious it all was. I can't say enough great things about this establishment and the people who work there. Thank you guys!!! Can't wait to see you all again at the bar!

    St James's Gate Publick House - short rib sandwich

    Been here from the beginning. Great family business, good people & phenomenal atmosphere. Great…read moreplace to unwind if you either get off the train, finish a round of golf (Maplewood C.C.) or taking a break from Home Depot. Excellent beer selection, select wines & great food. Oh, great place to catch soccer (or most any sport)

    Popped in for a quick drink with the neighbor, and this is truly a neighborhood Irish pub. The menu…read moreleans on Irish food staples, and while I've had better salmon and toast as a starter, the short rib sandwich had an excellent braised short rib that fell apart in the mouth, delicious, the bread didn't hold up much (maybe could have used a garlic or horseradish aioli?), and the shoestring fries were ok, definitely needed the ketchup. Seating at the bar was a bit crowded. Jimmy the bartender was great in service but busy, but the seat I had was right behind the taps so I didn't have much space for the plate of food -- recommend getting a table next time or watch where you want to sit - plenty of space for a glass of beer, but not for a plate. The half plate of wings - a lot of garlic parm sauce on top, and while not the best wings (lacked any crisp), the sauce was nice and thick and heavy - albeit salty, but that's ok for wings. The sauce there actually did the fries good. Lots of TVs and street parking or muni lot parking (free after 6p weekdays).
