Just as we were ready to walk out, the server finally appeared--only to deliver food to the wrong table. He sat a burger in front of one of our friends - thinking it was the right burger our friend started to munch on the fries and touched the burger. When the server realized that the order wasn't ours, he took the plate that our friend had started eating on and placed it in front of another customer - not even bothered that our friend had touched and eaten some of the food.. At that point we cancelled and left hungry. Absolutely cannot recommend this place.

Oh my goodness, this British gastropub is the real deal! I quickly checked the Yelp reviews, and…read moremade an evening reservation, not checking what the parking situation was like. Well, my bad - their website includes multiple accessible places to park in and around the village. That said, we got it, and decided to belly up to the bar for a better look at the offerings and the place in general. Matt O was our server. I started with a delicious Scottish Ale, and my companion had a glass of wine. Prices are reasonable. My companion ordered and raved about the Shepherd's Pie. I had Bangers & Mash - sausage (3 pieces) with imported horseradish mustard, mashed potatoes, gravy, delicious baked beans. It went perfectly with my pint! It was a warm afternoon so the glass garage doors were opened wide and folks were eating and drinking outside in the beer garden too. The vibe was loud, lively and very positive. Music was old school British Invasion '60s style. Good times seemed to be had by everyone. We finished with a locally produced Chocolate Rum Cake - it was rum forward and smooth, dark chocolatey! Highly recommended.

My family and I recently visited The Last Queen, and overall, there was a lot to appreciate. The…read morerestaurant does an excellent job creating an authentic British pub experience. The atmosphere was charming, the décor was exactly what we were hoping for, and the menu felt genuinely true to British cuisine rather than a themed interpretation. Unfortunately, our visit took place on a colder day, and the large garage-style door connecting to the outdoor seating area was left open. As a result, the entire restaurant felt quite cold throughout our meal. Since we were dining with our infant son, this made it difficult to fully enjoy the experience and was our biggest disappointment of the evening. In fact, it was cold enough that we kept our coats on throughout dinner, which made it hard to relax and enjoy the atmosphere the restaurant had worked so hard to create. We also ordered the fish and chips. The quality of the fish was very good, and it was clearly prepared with care. However, the portion size left something to be desired. The meal included only one medium-sized piece of fish, which felt small for a dinner entrée, especially considering the price point. While the food itself was enjoyable, we were hoping for a more substantial serving. Despite these issues, The Last Queen delivered on atmosphere, authenticity, and food quality. I would be willing to give it another try, particularly during warmer weather, as I believe the temperature and comfort level had a significant impact on our overall experience.

It wasn't crowded tonight when we got there but it did pick up quick. Despite the additional guests that came in she was on top of it. My wife ordered a Diet Coke and I ordered a tall Miller Lite. The draft beer was exceptionally cold which I like. We ordered our food which was 6 buffalo wings for me with a wedge salad and Bleu cheese. My wife ordered the shepherd's pie with came with a small salad. When our food came out the presentation was great as well as piping hot. She had to let her entree cool a bit before eating it. My wings were very meaty and loaded with sauce. (No need to ask for extra) The wedge salad was huge and delicious as well. I got their homemade Bleu cheese with it and definitely don't regret that. Note the wings came with Bleu cheese and celery also. My wife loved her salad and couldn't stop raving over the Shepherds pie. I did get a taste and must agree with her on how good it was. I took half of my salad and a full Bleu cheese home with me for tomorrow and my wife also brought home half of her meal. We ended up ordering the brown butter cake to split for desert which I will say was outstanding. We will surely go back and only wish that we had tried it sooner. Don't sleep on this one or you will be missing out.

I was in the area yesterday for work, got home and decided to go back today to try it out. We tried the Cubano sandwich with onion rings, the Caesar Salad with fried chicken, and the fried pickles. First off, the pickles are out of this world good! They are smothered in batter I've never had before. They aren't your typical thinly sliced pickled with no batter. They are a good solid slice and the batter is thicker than normal. So many of them that we brought half home. The salad with candied bacon was so dang good! The kick the candied bacon had was...wow! The cubano sandwich was thick! And let's not forget the atmosphere. It's hard to find a place with so much character that doesn't cost a car payment to eat at. To top it off, our server, Jocelyn C was great! She was so attentive to us, made sure we had refills, brought our food quickly and offered boxes to go. She was pleasant and it felt like she wanted to be at work on a Saturday! Thank you Jocelyn! We'll certainly be back to try more food!

But a lot of time has passed and both are excellent now. A good number of people were at the bar around 4 pm on a weekday and the manager was bartending. He was friendly and attentive. Lots of draft beer choices and some great happy hour deals. We couldn't resist a cheeseburger with the works plus fries for $10 so we both got that. Burger was hearty, fresh, and cooked to a perfect medium. Fries were good too. The presentation was appealing, see the photo. They've got a big game room that even includes a shuffleboard table. I saw several signs saying no one under 21 allowed IN THE BAR after 7 pm, which is an excellent practice that I applaud, but I think that unfortunately that probably does not apply to the game room...otherwise why add the words "in the bar." Parking is in the rear (shared lots) and I did not see any handicap spots. Bathroom nice and clean. We enjoyed our visit here and may stop again for a meal and a game of shuffleboard, as long as no one under 21 is around.
