Our favorite stop on our travels to visit family! Good food, great location for cruising the shops afterward.

Patty melt didn't have cheese. I would have told the server had she come by and ask. Can't really blame her she was the only one working. Burger was a smash burger without much taste. Christian country music playing fairly loud. read more

Got the bone in wings and pizza, the pizza was pretty mediocre nothing special about it, I would honestly rather eat a frozen pizza. Also the wings tasted very old and I got a few deformed pieces of chicken instead of wings. read more

this place is mainly for beer drinking, not for eating. our 1st pizza was really, really burnt. This is the bottom of the 2nd pizza after sending back the 1st. went we asked about it we were told that's how it's made. Poor service too. Do not go there. read more

Great food and service, we always get seated quickly and the food is some of the best downtown. 8 TVs with different games 12 beers on tap and even more in bottles / cans. If you're in edenton you have to check it out! Only draw backs from it being 5 star are it's often a decent wait for food, and they charge $1 for soda refills (which is kinda ridiculous) and puts you in a bind when waiting for your food if you don't wanna pay for a refill. Regulars are great and friendly and it's super clean. read more

Great food, atmosphere and service. I was worried we wouldn't have good options because we were passing through an unknown and rural area on Easter Sunday, but I was pleasantly surprised. Great wings and steak sandwich, but the specialty watermelon margarita may have been my favorite! Seemed family friendly with a good vibe. read more

Food was amazing. Restaurant was nice and at first our waitress seemed very kind, but then when we were asking questions about our bill which they charged us extra for everything, she kinda got a little attitude when we didn't understand something, and then when I asked to speak to the manager, she told me she was the manager in a very snoody tone. And then she was talking to us like we were stupid. That's the only reason I will not go back to the restaurant. I don't care how good their food is. Plus charging a dollar extra for childs drink refill is absolutely ridiculous. Its not like they are drinking specialty drinks, it was tea and soda. I wouldve been ok with that, but when we had 6 extra dressings added to our bill, but only got 3 and when questioned the waitress/manager (she so claimed) said that 6 extra dressings where 3 dressings. The math isnt mathing. And then explained to us again like we are dumb.. it rubbed me the wrong way, and sadly though even though the food was absolutely delicious, and the place was very clean and inviting, i will not be going back. I would rather had crappy food and bad atmosphere then to have a waitress belittle me and try to say 3 is the same as 6. Its a shame to, because i wouldve been a repeat customer if this incident had not of happened read more

Food was delicious, service was great, and it was a cool joint. I will be eating here again next time I'm In the area

Bull burger and onion rings. Tasty!' Service by Autumn was fast and courteous. Pretty good choice of microbrews too, if you're into that. read more

Recommended by locals but as tourist was disappointed in their prime rib sandwich special. The meat had a strange taste to it that was not appetizing. Au jus was great and so were the homemade chips and sourdough bread. . Fried pickles very greasy. Service was good but dissatisfied with our entree read more

Need to revise menu offering more home-made item's. Boneless wings to much breading not much meat.

We stopped in for a early dinner on a saturday night. We were seated quickly and our appetizer of fried pickles came very shortly afterwards. They came with a tasty house made dipping sauce. Kinda ranch but kinda spicy. The cheesesteak i order was awesome and very cheesy. The food was fresh and hot and the service was great. Definitely a great spot to check out! read more

Was in Town to visit family and this establishment was on our itinerary -- We ended up here twice during our roughly 1 week stay. Great choice M.I.L! AMBIANCE - Small town bar/chill/laid back/friendly. SERVICE - Being that there aren't a whole lot of bars/eatery in a small town like Edenton, this place can get really packed during peak service hours...Plan accordingly or go support the local shops until the crowd dies down. - Open seating: First come first served type of ordeal. - The servers are swamped, so give them a break. DRINKS - Tons of beer options. - Shirley temple was good (You can also request to make it "dirty" if you'd like - Some kind of vodka would pair well). APPETIZER - Get the Bone-In Chicken Wings (Carolina Dry Rub) and you will not be disappointed. - They also have "Boneless Wings" if that is more of your thing. Personally, not a fan of em' and never will be -- It always comes out too cakey and/or too much batter, which is distracting to the true star...The protein. ENTREE - Edenton Steak Sub is a must! (It comes with peppers/mushrooms/etc...But you can exclude certain veggies if you'd like). - Perfectly TOASTED rolls (Most places serve these with soggy buns covered in cheese which is sort of standard...So having toasted subs really make this place stand out). - The shaved steak is mixed in with the cheese and it's like a party in your mouth - Perfect meat to cheese ratio. - Pub fries are just ever so slightly battered and delicious. read more

This is a very casual sports bar, and the food and beer were very good. Would definitely recommend!

Nice bar with several big screen tvs. Wings and pizza are good. Reasonable prices, friendly atmosphere. Karla is the best!

We have been to Govener's Pub several times in the last month. Food is great and fries are the best in town! Servers are always fun and attentive. One of our favorites! read more

Food and service were both great! A nice laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back!

Never again! Health department needs to close the doors! First, a dog was eating at the table beside of us...off of a restaurant plate, and as we were leaving I saw the waitress squish a bug that was crawling on the floor. Wish I had seen these things before we ate our food!! Shame, because this place has lots of potential. read more

Food was amazing and the staff was even better. My wife and I went for a date lunch and will be returning customers.

Clean and friendly staff. We sat ourselves and the waitress was right there. She is really friendly and nice.

Bison chili is Fabulous, service was good. Reuben and Tea great. Only prob was customers not wearing masks. No hand sanitizer anywhere. Bar was definitely not social distancing. Tables looked fine. Lots of people at bar no seats left empty. Saw no other customers w masks No signs "requiring masks In Normal times would have been a great stop. We are travelers read more

Thank goodness for the Governor's Pub! Evidently the town of Edenton closed down on Sundays - no open tourist sites, shops or restaurants! Luckily we came across the Governor's Pub and were able to get something to eat. We had a pizza which was very good. We ended up eating lunch there on another day and it was also good. read more

The place is nice, relaxing and service was great Great food! I had the Ruben and hubby had the steak sandwich went around 11:30 for lunch... read more

The food is pretty good but is inconsistant, same with the staff, it is more of a local bar than resturant, overall it is good for a sandwich and a beer. read more

We stopped for a late lunch after taking the trolley tour. Prompt, friendly server, who checked back with us frequently to see how things were. I had one of the best cheesesteak sandwiches I've ever had. Food was hot and came quickly. Well done, folks! read more

I ordered the burger and I loved it! Service was great! Daughter got a pizza and said it was awesome!

They served our order to someone else. Waitress kept saying your order is almost up and is next. 20 minutes later came to say our order wouldn't be arriving and said "I can put in another order for you". She should have noticed something wrong when others who ordered after is had their food and finished eating. I have one star for not loosing the order but still charging us for our tea and appetize. That was low class. read more

A great place to eat. The staff here really cares. I would recommend it to any fellow visitor for a tasty lunch. Burgers, sandwiches and boneless wings are all good. read more

The service was slow and the wait staff were rude. It took several times asking to order a beer. We weren't offered any napkins, the dinner salad consisted of lettuce and American cheese. The fired pickles were only ok. The only thing we ordered that was any good was the pretzel and beer cheese. It's the only reason I have them two starts. read more

The servers were friendly. The food was delicious! The only thing missing is watching the sunset during dinner.

Good food Edenton steak sub is the best. Good pub food and a nice bar. Pizza is also really good

I had a terrific time watching the Saints beat the Panthers here! This place was terrific! Both the staff and the clientele were amazingly friendly, in one of the friendliest towns I have ever visited. Wings were darn good, but the spicy eggroll was da bomb! Admittedly, the owner is a Packers fan, but the really cold beer can make you forget the cheese head hat. HIGHLY recommended!! 2 enthusiastic thumbs up!! read more

Not worth the trip at all, the service was slow at 3:00 and the food was sub-par! One persons came out cold the first time and the second time came out burnt and the third time it was cold again (see just ate it). The meat is lacking at best (see pic), first and last time ever coming . Thanks for the response Christian F, but I wouldn't come back in there even on a bet! I didn't even mention the older bar tender that a huge attitude, you can have the place! We are from Albemarle Plantation and don't see us coming back at all! read more

I absolutely love coming here. It's open later than everywhere else in Edenton and is a great spot to go for a casual drink or food. The fries are my absolute favorite and Taylor, one of the bartenders, is great. He makes a delicious whiskey sour! read more

Our first visit and our last. We read many of the reviews before arriving but decided we needed to judge for ourselves. We had such high hopes. Kristy's was always our go to for dinner after the candlelight tours. Walked in, sat ourselves as per the instructions. We were approached in a reasonable amount of time by our server. I asked about a wine and beer list, to which she said they don't have. Ok, so tell me about the wine selection, well, umm, we have merlot, and some others. Ok, what brands do you have, can you tell me anything about them? No, they are just house wines. Um, ok. I will have water, thanks. That just lost you a decent alcohol sale, which decreases our bill and ultimately her tip. I ordered a burger. When asked how I wanted it cooked, I jokingly asked, does it matter? Is it going to be cooked to order or well done. She assured me it mattered. Ok, medium please. Guess what, it was well done. I showed her and said I would eat it anyway, she wasn't concerned at all. She said ok and walked away. Pretty much figured it would be after the length of time it took to get our food. They were busy but not packed by any means. No waiting line and it looked like most peopIe were order wings and pizza. I like my burgers seasoned precooking, pretty sure the only seasoning was a large amount of salt. Ate half and let the rest go. Husband had the grilled chicken with veggies (no rice). Nothing special as far as flavoring, he even had to add pepper and salt to season it himself. The mixed veggies were a strange mix. Corn, green pepper, 1 cherry tomatoe cut in half and what he thinks was small pieces of bacon. It was ok, again, nothing special. He had 2 cups of coffee, both of which had quite a bit of grounds in them. The waitress never offered any desert or asked if we wanted anything else. Sad really, as these are the questions that drive your sales up. I really want to give one star but feel like we were warned and ate here anyway, so I should give two. Good luck. Ps....there is No Wine list and the server was not familiar with types of wine or information about them. She also confirmed they were just House Wines. read more
