I placed a to-go order over the phone and they were just being packed up at the promised time. My order consisted of a single order of hot wings that are accompanied by house made blue cheese and celery. The wings were fried and sauced perfectly! These were just the right sized and yummy. I placed my first order on Wednesday and went right back the following Friday. Please note, they do play live music from what I saw and heard people were really enjoying the show.

It was nice and big in there. I like the way that there was room to move. It's not real small like most bars I end up going to. The bartender was OK, it was very, very crowded, so they were low on seats. Like I said, I wasn't there very long. I didn't spend a lot of time there so I don't really know much about the place. I didn't even so much just use the restroom there so I don't know about those. I don't know if they have food or not. I just like the fact that it's spacious.

One of the bathrooms was out of order. The service was just MEH, we got a server that was ending her shift and it showed. I ordered a shot, which are nice sizes BUT mine had a spider in it. I ordered a drinks and a shot and my drink never came, I had to go ask again after I took my spider shot back to them. The food...ok the chicken wings, nothing special. We did try the steak and cheese sub which they are famous for. I love they use a seeded roll, the meat to roll portion was off. But it was tasty. My favorite was the chicken cesar salad sub, which you can make buffalo style, which we did. This sandwhich was excellent! They need promote that more than the steak in my opinion. This is a local bar for me, so would I go back yea. Would I recommend someone driving from OP here, no.

Went to dinner here at 6pm on a Wednesday. The establishment is a smallish one story building with…read morean attractive partially covered patio and a private parking lot that holds around thirty cars including one accessible space. The interior is that of an attractive neighborhood tavern. There are around nine tables as well as bar seating. We entered through a small vestibule with fancy double wood and glass doors and joined another couple already seated in a booth overlooking Abbott Rd. The restaurant was moderately busy with a staff of three (cook, waitress, bartender) serving the patrons. The waitress, Lauren, warmly greeted us and took our drink orders. I ordered a Guinness on tap, others ordered a bottled beer, red wine or mixed drink. The drinks were served within eight minutes at which time Lauren took our food order. The drinks were as ordered and satisfactory to all. I ordered ten wings (single) medium while my wife ordered a burger with fries and a small salad. The other couple each ordered a steak sandwich. The food orders were served fifteen minutes later, exactly as ordered. My wings were crispy and tasty. The burger was ok with crispy fries. The other couples steak sandwiches looked good ( maybe next time). Our salad was simple but fresh. Lauren was attentive and pleasant. They only accept cash for payment. The crowd there appears to be mostly regulars that seem to have a sense of ownership, a man standing at the bar near our table spilled part of his beer on the floor and immediately went and got a wet mop and cleaned the tile floor. All in all a very pleasant dining experience. We will surely return.

The bartender was friendly and attentive.

Obviously a neighborhood place, the Blackthorn offered a full bar, cool vibe, an extensive menu, and friendly service. The Mr. & I both opted for the Friday fish fry special. It came with a huge piece of haddock, choice of potato (I opted for the baked potato and the Mr. got a sweet potato), macaroni salad, cole slaw, and an assortment of rolls + regular and herbed butter. Everything was delicious but I couldn't finish it all - so the Mr. got extra. He didn't complain! Haha Since we were both so stuffed, we took cannolis to go. This was a great dining experience that I'd love to repeat someday!

She warned me it was a "hole in the wall" and she was right. Personally, I love dive bars, so I wasn't afraid I would call this more of a neighborhood bar. Finding it... I thought I was going down the wrong road because it's sort of behind factories and train tracks and sits at the end of a street in the middle of a neighborhood. No big signage no big parking lot just an old building that probably was someone's house at some point in time. The exterior is nothing fancy. But as soon as you open the door, you are definitely in a neighborhood bar. We're probably "everyone knows your name "I got there at 4:15 and the place was packed. There's a bar area and a separate smallish dining room with maybe 15 tables. Maxx clearly has a lot of regulars because my friend knew one of the groups of diners and finally enough I knew one of them too. This is probably a place where neighbors gather, or guys getting off from the Ford plant. Go to have drinks after work. The service was fast and friendly with one server Rob taking care of the whole place. I honestly don't know how she did it, but she did it well and with a smile the whole time. The menu was basic, but there's something for everyone. Burgers, wings, pizza, apparently they are known for their fish fry, and homemade clam chowder. One of my group had the fish fry and it looks so good. I had to take a picture of it and send it to my husband who is also a big fish fry fan. He was impressed. She and my friend had a cup of the clam chowder soup and I regretted not having the same because it looked absolutely delicious and piping hot. You could tell it was homemade. Both my friend and I were in the mood for pizza, and I wouldn't really order pizza from a place that's not known for it but order it we did. It had more of a thick crust, but it was crispy maybe a little overdone, but it was edible and tasty. I probably should have gone for the chicken finger sub or the wings. The prices are extremely reasonable. I mean really reasonable. The quantity of food was plentiful, the quality was good, service was great,. If you're looking for a cute little bar just for some basic food, friendly service and a cold beer give this place a try. And remember, don't judge it from the outside.

We have been to this establishment about a half a dozen times to have drinks, food and listen to the music. Always had a good time at this place. Hopefully it won't happen again.
