We were driving through Monroe and thought we'd try this PUB, which is much larger inside than it looks from the outside. There was a motorcycle event going on, and we were really lucky to get a parking spot. We weee also lucky to find a place to sit, there was a live band setting up and people weren't leaving. I finally went to the bar to get a drink, I think JR Phinickeys was very low staffed. We did see some food coming out but we didn't get served. We listened to the band for a while, they were excellent, then we left. We will have to stop in again where there isn't a special event happening. This is a good venue for live music

This is our go to in Monroe for lunch, dinner, casual hangout and drinks. Service is AMAZING. Todd won't leave a drink half empty or a single piece of trash on your table for more than 2.5 seconds and makes the best kamikaze and lemon drop shots you've ever had. Cassie, Darya, and Madison greet you with gorgeous smiles and delicious drinks (Maddie puts the icing on the cake with an amazing voice on karaoke Tuesdays). Buddah (Darren) has a natural warmth to his personality and can muddle a drink like you've never seen. Even though this is technically a bar, they put forward a LOT of effort with the food and have a delicious menu: wings (amazing), hot sandwiches, hot dogs and hamburgers built every way you can imagine, and even delicious wraps and salads. I almost forgot the STEAKS. The owner cares about his selection of meat and from the steaks to the Tuesday birria tacos, you'll be pleasantly surprised. The cooks care and it shows. The AC cranks, the 9 big screen tvs play every sport you could possibly want to watch and there's plenty of room for large parties.

I love this frikkin place. Spam fries. Wanted some ridiculous Fair food without going to the Fair. So yum. I will not apologize.

We were looking for a quick place to run in and have a quick birthday drink but we were craving pickle backs. Oddly not every bar serves them. I tried Yelp, called some friends, and then stumbled into this PUB since it was the closest. We parked, put our masks on and walked in. We felt like we were from outer space or something. Walking in with masks... When no one in the bar was wearing one... And they were all staring at us. We tried to find a table to walk up to, but the tables are huge (seat 8 people) and 1 or 2 people were at each one. We weren't sure what we were supposed to do so we kept waking until we reached the other side and there was a small cocktail table next to the darts. It took a little while to get someone to take out drink order, so we played darts and just hung out. We were able to order Picklebacks which was nice, we played 2 rounds of darts and then headed out. I can see that this would be a nice local dive, great for watching a game, nothing fancy. Has some pool tables and some darts, lots of pull tabs and big TV screens

Bomb food service is great & drinks are amazing! Anything I've ever ordered has been awesome! very upbeat enviroment!

WTF IS THIS???? Ordered a large supreme, got a phone call back that they were out of large pizza crusts, they can do smaller "personal" pizzas. We got these, literally burnt trash come on, this isn't food.

Suck it Patty W. Go back to libtardia. We love love love this place and Brit and Cassie are the best. I have never seen one single person like Britt or Cassie run a complete bar as efficiently and with as much excellent service as they do.

How about Breakfasts? And do you still have taco Tuesday

Not sure about breakfast. But I pass on taco Tuesday. Street taco size and they change a buck. There are better deals all around Monroe on Tuesday.

We were bored on a Friday afternoon and decided to do a little road trip out to Monroe. It was a…read morepleasant drive, on a beautiful day. Our destination was the Route 2 Taproom, as it sounded interesting, and we've never been. We arrived, and it was what we were expecting, a very nice indoor seating area with quite a few tables, and a very nice outdoor patio. We chose the patio, which had a self service walk up bar. Just made it convenient and you didn't have to wait for someone to come to your table. My wife chose the fish and chips, which you'll see in the photo were very abundant, and cooked very nicely with a modest amount of fries, in my opinion, I would've liked more. The flavor was really good. I chose the chicken wings, which I was told I could pick multiple flavors, I chose the sweet chili, and the lemon pepper. Really like the sweet chili, the lemon pepper... well, was much too lemony. The beer selection here was quite extensive, we chose one of the lighter session IPAs, which was quite good. Overall, the staff was very friendly, engaging, and did a great job of taking care of everybody while we were there. I will definitely go back when I'm in the neighborhood. Thank you

Large parties can be easily accommodated with ample sized table tops. There are several beers on draft to choose from as well as a full bar. During my visit I slurped on a couple Nock it Back Hazy IPA's for $4 (hh). My bestie and I shared a 3-topping pizza for $15.99. Service is friendly but slow. Slow as in understaffed so be patient. Only one gal on shift would wore many hats: server, bartender, cook and hostess.

Grab a seat around the fire table and watch a game on TV. On Tuesday's they have a fun 6 game bingo night which is nice, doesn't take over the whole bar if you're not interested but they always have a grinder special on those days. Stop in on Wednesday for 1/2 price wing night. A local favorite.

We love Trails End so much that there was no other choice for us when choosing the caterer for our daughter's wedding. My only negative comment is that they only offer their bacon wrapped dates on their catering menu - I would go there daily for that alone! All that said, they are #1 for us!

The manager was very nice and super helpful and what could have been a big problem on a very busy evening turned into a few minutes of waiting outside on a sunny day. The food was good (WOW - especially the Parmesan Artichoke dip. I expected it to be the usual, creamy dip you get everywhere but this had a hit of garlic that made it SPECTACULAR.) But the BEST part of the evening was our server, Brenton. He was funny, kind, very good at his job, checked in with us at exactly the right times and just generally made the evening a great one. Am rating 4 stars instead of 5 for two reasons: 1) They have no gluten free options. Not a GF bun, bread., pasta nor pizza dough. I understand not having many, but to have no GF choices is just not great these days. My husband with celiac disease had very few options. 2) Need more and reservable outside seating. Especially on the beautiful days (like this one was) - having to sit inside was a big bummer. They had more tables outdoors but we were told those were waiting areas and that we couldn't eat there. Anyway - a good spot and an even better one if they made just a couple changes.
