This place opened Dec 2020 but we are just trying it now for the first time. It's a cute local place. The bartender was very friendly and attentive even though we sat at a high top table. All their appetizers are made from scratch (except the french fries) and are REALLY good! My only complaint was the mild wings were WAY too hot. I could only eat one and my husband ate the rest. He normal orders hot and he even said they weren't enjoyable to eat cuz they were that hot. So don't expect to get mild wings here. Last thing to note is the pricing was very reasonable and fair on both food and alcoholic beverages.

Welcoming bar with friendly staff. Food is always on point, alongside good drinks. Their hosted events are great fun.

Trying out all the bars in Rockaway, one at a time. This is an interesting little dive bar,…read moretrapezoidal shape pressed up against the tracks. From the name "Mill Lane" I'm guessing there were once some mills down this way, but I didn't see any ruins. Just the bar. Warning, it's a tiny place. Not crowded, my friend and I found a table on Sunday game day, but don't bring a large group. Mostly locals who know each other, but a friendly atmosphere from guests and servers alike. Our bartendress was nice and sassy. Second warning: Do not use the jukebox. It will drown out everyone and leave your ears ringing for days. I think the people who put in a pair of songs realized that and it was blessedly quiet the rest of the day. Beer: Fairly on the expensive side. Out $9 for one draft Yuengling and one bottle. Those would be maybe $7 nearby at Johnnie's. Food was reasonable, though as I worked out the Halloween specials, I could get the same ingredients on the cheesesteak for a buck cheaper by ordering it off the regular menu. Maybe it's the pepper jack that did it. Maybe the 5 cents of BBQ sauce they'd add. As for the cheesesteak itself, which has gotten plaudits from others here? Decent. Good size, but the beef tasted really plain. American cheese melted into it. Nice amount of mushrooms. Side of onion rings a bit burnt but decent. I should have splurged on the special perhaps. The strangeness came as we got to the 4th quarter, when the bartendress disappeared. The two guys left basically ignored us. Sure, we weren't asking for drinks (which is generally how you get their attention)... but she would point to us when she saw our glasses empty, and they didn't. Also... we had an open tab that they weren't asking about. We totally could have left. Turns out the tab was actually closed! So they called her on the phone to bring her back inside, enter the tabs for a couple of us, and then close them out. Bizarre. Quirky local place, but I'll leave it for the locals.

I liked it before, but I actually liked it more this time. It was a very friendly atmosphere at the bar, talking with the bartenders and other patrons. I started with a Guinness and my wife had a Toasted Almond. We split entrees of Beef Stew and Fish & Chips. I liked both, but really loved the fish & chips. They were crispy and light, made perfectly! The fries and onion rings were good too. Denville is one of my favorite Jersey towns and there are so many great food options here. It was fun getting back to Thatcher McGhee's!

I've been on an Irish Pub kick for the last week and Thatcher's is a classic…read more Hubby of course had a Guinness. He likes it here because they have the full size pint glasses where many other restaurants have switched to the smaller size. I got a Stella on draft because I'm not a fan of the stouts and lagers. Hubby got a cup of the hearty beef barley soup then enjoyed his corned beef sandwich with seasoned fries. Very big portion that he is going to have for lunch tomorrow. I went with the chicken curry. It's my daughter's go to favorite for this place and I know she will be happy to have some of my leftovers since the portion is so huge. Hubby liked dipping his fries in the sauce (as did I). Such a joyful meal! I highly recommend it! He got a coffee and we split a piece of cheesecake. It was a large plate for a small piece. It may not have been too small, but perhaps some Whipped cream or a smaller plate to appease the eye. The service is fantastic! We sat and had menus right away, whenever we finished a drink or food. They cleared items right away and were very attentive. There were TVs over the bar with various games and it looks like this was the place for World Cup soccer. The bar area is very lively and a fun place to hang out. But there are also multiple rooms where you can have a quieter meal or even outdoor dining when the weather permits. If you haven't been here, do stop by when you are in the Denville area. You will love it!

If you haven't been, I'm sorry. If have, rejoice and know the chef, Skip, who happens to be my brother-in-law will enjoy his retirement after a chaotic, non-stop last month. I stopped in for lunch today with my good friend and struggled with what my last meal should be. I opted for the Chicken pot pie and corn fritter. It was light, flaky and delicious. The corn fritter came with maple syrup and brought me great joy. My friend went with the pork Milanese which was huge! It came with mashed potatoes and veggies. She definitely will be having a second meal from that pork cutlet. She also ordered a Reuben to take home for her hubby. Sorry, no photos of the sandwich. The service is always top notch and the drinks free flowing. Stop in if you can. But know the wait will be lengthy but worth it.

Nice bar, and good selection for wines and beer. Parking is street parking mostly and they have couple of parking spots to the side of the restaurant. Genuine hospitality that welcomes you like they've known you forever. You are going to ask why you haven't been here many times before after you visit. Everything is of quality and fresh. The menu is concentrated offering a nice balance of traditional items and Irish dishes. The Potato and Leek Soup is made very well with such a clean smooth broth and plenty of potato and leek present in the soup. Try the Cajun Chicken and Sausage gumbo was a nice option offering Big pieces of Chicken and Andouille Sausage. Nice kick but not overwhelming. Clams or Mussels appetizers are on point and worth sharing with the table. The Corned Beef and Cabbage dish was amazing and definitely NOT bland! Lean Corned Beef and fresh hand cut veggies make this a must have! The NY Strip, is tender, cooked perfectly and recommend having the whiskey sauce over the top! For $38.95 it is a bargain! Highly recommended as it literally checks every box for me. Will definitely return!
