    child the picture only pretty much tells you exactly why this review is the way it is. While I do love the cheap prices and most bartenders (I spend at least a hundred or week here bc I'm here about 4-5 days a week lol), the fact they ignore an obvious racist (I have to say allegedly for libel reasons) woman say backhanded racist comments is wild to me

    I'd say this is your regular pub. Decent bar food. I had the Rueben with fries and my husband had their Salmon entree. They actually gave him the option of how he wanted it cooked. We have never been asked that question but it was nice that they offered it. We had the beer cheese soup. I was excited for this!! I love beer cheese soup and it's hard to find it at restaurants. I loved they topped it with bacon and green onions, but it was not my favorite. Although my husband loved it. When you can choose between appetizers they offer a sampler which you can choose from 3 on the list. We got the chicken tender, corn dogs and mushroom. It was nice they also come with homemade chips! My daughter loves the mini corn dogs. My husband enjoyed the tiger sauce that came with the mushrooms. It's basically sour cream mixed with horseradish. And their ranch.... love their ranch!

    Had an amazing all around experience! Angelica was a great bartender/server who is very attentive to detail! I highly recommend stopping at this place for drinks,food, or just for a good time.

    It is , indeed a " local " bar , however that does not mean that they treat people any differently if they are not regulars. They still show you the same courtesy.

It feels like stepping into a pub in Dublin. Cozy, intimate, and full of character. A perfect spot to unwind with a pint. My husband and I went for a date night. We shared the garlic shrimp app, I had the salmon entree and he had the bangers. For drinks a Guinness and Hugo spritz. Everything was yummy, the garlic shrimp a little overcooked but still great flavor. We saved room for dessert and I am glad we did. The cheesecake served warm was a true delight with ice cream. Paired with Irish coffee this is a must! Looking forward to another visit!!!!

On this visit, we went on a Saturday afternoon. It was moderately busy but not too crazy. We sat upstairs on the patio. The weather was perfect for it. Our server was nice but I believe at some point she forgot to put our food order in. To the point that we were just going to cancel it and head out because we had been waiting so long. Again, not sure if it was the server or the kitchen that was the cause of the delay. The food was fine. The drinks are standard that you would expect from a bar. Overall, a nice place to go and have a pint but that's about it for me.

Flavorful and nice texture and the burger was delicious. Great size and served with a side of pork cracklings. You would need to upgrade for a bit extra to get a more traditional side. I will definitely be back here over and over.

The moment you walk in, you're transported back in time with retro arthritics, great music, and the option to order right at the bar and sit wherever you'd like. I ordered the Turkey Burger, and this was no ordinary Turkey Burger, the first bite was an absolute win, packed with flavor. I also tried the Pickle Poppers, which were delicious. To finish, I had the Apple Crumble Pie, and it instantly took me back to grandma's house in the best way. If you're looking for a cool vibe, friendly staff, and seriously good food, Gussie's is the place to go. Until next time
