Food was good. I ordered 2 cod plates for my party. I wish they had other sides besides fries. It…read morewould be good if they offered other things like fresh fried okra, fried green tomatoes, or Mac n cheese. Service is meh because they don't accept call in orders. It was my first time ordering g so not sure if ordering online is available. But if you don't order online, you order there and wait. It's just a stand and wait or go back to your car and wait place. Not impressed. The cod was good, but for all the fish they give you, they give 1 tartar sauce. If you want more, you have to pay for it. I'd honestly trade fries for more tartar sauce. I went on a day that wasn't busy so the wait wasn't long. I would avoid peak times if you're in a hurry.

Another place on our list to visit - the new shop with the new owners. They were customers and…read morebought from Mark who was the original founder. We stopped by after a visit to the Newtown Candy shop. We took some lobster roll kits and clam chowder home. They pride themselves on fresh seafood regularly flown in from around the world. Their pricing is double Jungle Jims and triple kroger. Can't say good or bad until we try the fresh fish. For example they have many types of Salmon from around the globe. $49.99 for Sea Bass is pricey for me. I think Halibut was $39.99 a pound and the salmon was $20-$30 a pound. They also make their own sides. The clam chowder had too many potatoes. On Friday and Saturday nights they cook a few meals out back in a small tent/room. Main items are Lobster Rolls and Fish n chips.

In fact, I was so taken by the owner sharing the history of Lobsta Bakes and all of the items that are made onsite, that I completely forgot to take photos with one exception: the menu! They have a small space to serve dinner on weekends with a menu that changes often. From fresh fish to chowder, crab cakes, Lobster rolls, sauces, pies, and much more, this is a place you have to visit! I bought some clam chowder, lobster roll kits, crab cakes and lobster quiche- all were fantastic!

Also, the guy at the counter was very friendly and helpful. The "Meh" - the fries were just okay. But my buddy liked them - I thought they would have similar seasoning to the chicken or shrimp. The service took a little bit longer that I anticipated - I thought it would be more of a fast food feel, but to dine in, we needed at least 30 minutes. That's not bad - I just assumed (wrongly) it was more of a casual, fast feel. Would come back again!

Mikes fish and chicken We had a hankering for fish and…read moreMike's Fish and Chicken in Florence Ky popped up. It had very good reviews... We arrived at the restaurant and the young lady working was pleasant and friendly. We asked her what her favorites were and she said everything was good, some days she has the fish and others the chicken. She provided an extensive menu for our review. We took the menu and perused, decided to do one fish (cod) and one chicken tender meals with zucchini sticks. When the meals arrived the chicken looked good, the fish looked not so good. The cod was an off color best described as gray and was irregularly shaped ( looked more like perch). The fish was more breading and a bit greasy, definitely a fishy taste. The zucchini sticks were breading and mush ) very watery. The chicken was moist however the breading sloughed off when cutting and it had an off taste. The only things edible without comment were the fries and coleslaw. My wife and I both only consumed small bites of the food and decided it was not worth risking... should have followed our instincts and went elsewhere immediately. The menu is too extensive to be able to provide quality entrees. We stopped on the way home and picked up a pizza for lunch. Very disappointed, Mike's will not be on our list in the future.

There is a small parking lot plus street parking available. One interesting thing is the numerous old photos of Hamilton hanging on the walls. There is even one of the building back in the day! We ordered an Anna's pretzel with beer cheese and horse cheese as an appetizer. It was one of the best soft pretzels I've eaten! Large, warm and the 2 dipping sauces made a great accompaniment. We ordered a Reuben and fish and chips also. They were yummy as well. The bar tender/waitress was very attentive and pleasant. The prices are very moderate. I noticed they even offered lunch specials. I definitely plan on visiting again.

The waitress seemed helpful enough, though, as there's weren't many customers this early in the evening, she was too busy watching the Winter Olympics to give me more than the cursory attention needed to bring my food out and take my payment. But the food definitely made up for that. This is made-from-scratch creativity at its finest. I got the Reuben's Stones, expecting a fried fritter, but got a delicate, made-like-my-mamma-would pastry instead. It was soft and doughy inside, and jam-packed with corned beef. The fish in the fish and chips was huge, hot, and right out of the fryer. And the fries had to be made from scratch, because I've never seen that particular shape come out of a freezer bag: they looked cut naturally from the round, and were also hot and tasty. And the warm butter cake was as amazing as everyone said. Actually it's this small squat cake that looks like a muffin -- until you cut into it and realize it's soaked in syrup inside & absolutely delicious. The only disappointment were the green beans --- they were overcooked and mushy -- though maybe that's how English green beans are authentically cooked. Overall, though, my visit was a real adventure filled with authentic and delicious surprises. I will definitely be back to try more.

Barleycorn had pros and cons, and depending on what you are looking for in a restaurant will depend…read moreon which columns you'd put each item in. We had never been there before so we had no idea what to expect. When we got there, it is a "seat yourself" situation. It's more a bar than a restaurant, so it makes sense. The only frustrating thing was that there was no one really covering the entrance. While my partner and I waited in the lobby area for a table to open up, patrons who came in after us would just walk into the dining area and hover around tables until people would leave. That's not the fault of the restaurant, especially on a busy night, but it did leave us a bit frustrated in the beginning. Because the restaurant was so busy, the waitstaff was not very attentive. It felt like they were spread pretty thin. It was the first nice night of the spring, so lots of people were out in the patio area. The food was pretty decent. My sandwich was really good and I liked the egg roll appetizer. My partner liked the po boy, but the shrimp breading was very dark on the outside - usually meaning the oil hadn't been changed out. Overall, if you are looking for a relaxed bar atmosphere with outdoor seating where you can watch a game, this place will be good for you. If you're looking for a quiet restaurant with attentive service, this may not be the place.

All night the owner Mr. David was out in the dining room making sure everyone was thoroughly enjoying themselves.

She answered any questions we had and gave us some time to look over the menu. She came back and I ordered the Dubliner cocktail and my friend ordered a Jameson Irish Whiskey.

She took our food order and I ordered the Shaved Prime Rib sandwich and I was given a choice of Saratoga chips, mashed potatoes, house cut fries, sweet potato fries, tots, fried broccoli, peas, or a side salad. I chose the Saratoga chips, I love them! My friend ordered the Reuben and also the chips. My sandwich came with au jus on the side for dipping. My chips were as I would expect them to be, a little thick and crunchy! I was not a big fan of the ciabatta bread on my sandwich but overall it was good. It is an Irish pub and looked good inside with all the wood. I think we will likely stop in again at some point.

ALTHOUGH, when we went in for our reservations we were seated, in the back of the restaurant it was warm, like really warm. Come to find out that the AC was out, and appeared we were seated in the warmed part. Thankfully the table next to us left, and the server moved the box fans our way. Food; We started with the Brussel sprouts, and they were really good season and cooked to perfect. We did share the Chicken salad croissant, which I didn't asked which is my fault it is NOT all white meat chicken I did try it, and sadly I stopped eating it as not only was it mixed with white/dark meat the actual chicken salad was warm. I did ask the server if it the Chicken Salad is served warm typically, and she replied "no?", so I was a bit taken back and apparently the Kitchen AC was out too :(. The positive, we also shared The Figgy flat bread was very good, I would not have been mad if it had a bit more bacon. Bar; I ordered a Dirty Martini and it was one of the best I have had, the bar service was great. Service; Our server was so sweet, and friendly and HONEST. I was a bit disappointed in the couple things, but the service and cocktails I want to go back and try again with the AC is working. TIP if AC is broken, make sure to seat everyone is the coolest part first.
