    My family of four dined here on a Friday evening around 5:30 p.m. The restaurant is big, and it…read morequickly got busy and filled up, which is a good sign. It got very loud with everyone talking on top of the 70s/80s music that was playing. There were ample staff to keep up with the surge, and our waitress was attentive and pleasant, although toward the end a little scattered. The decor is fun, if not a bit dated. Bathrooms are clean. We ordered a garlic bread appetizer which provided 8 pieces of bread. We ordered the Chicken Marsala, chicken Parmesan sandwich, chicken Parmesan with pasta, and chicken Olympia. I had a bowl of flavorful minestrone before my dinner, my spouse had a house salad. Unfortunately my coffee was cold, but it was bold and tasted okay. They don't list non-alcoholic beverages on the menu or their prices. My spouse ordered just a plain iced tea, but we were shocked when the bill came and we were charged for each of the refills ($10.50!). My daughter ordered a lemonade, which came in a cute branded bottle. It was very good, not too tart or sweet. After dinner, we each ordered dessert: Choco cake which has a cute little mouse on top, the orange revani which was extremely sweet, and the limoncello cake which was by far the best of the three with a delicate flavor. The servings of food were generous and we were impressed with the quality, especially the chicken. We could easily cut through it with a fork. The sauces were pleasant and not acidic. For the four of our meals (with leftovers) and the tip (and the insane charges for the iced tea) we paid $197, which I felt was somewhat reasonable. I just wish they were more upfront about their beverage prices and refill policy. Most restaurants don't charge for tea and coffee refills.

    Food was good, fast service, even on the day of graduation for Keene state it was packed but a…read morelovely experience.

    Wanted to try something new while staying in Keene between ski days. Given the current cold snap,…read moreit was right around the corner from where I was staying. I was solo so sat at the bar. Bartender didn't impress. Not sure he was experienced. Give away was putting olives on martini containing grapefruit juice, not mention an even number of olives (bad luck). The menus were fancy and I ordered a shaved roast beef sandwich with au jus. Shaved roast beef was on par with Steak-umms. French fries were your typical bagged fries. All in all it was ok at best. Was hoping for a little more given the quality of the other restaurants in the area.

    I was there last night on a Friday and sat at the bar and had dinner with my partner. The food was…read moreexcellent. I had Mr. Miyagi. It was excellent. My partner had the short rib ravioli which was also excellent. We are whiskey/bourbon drinkers and the one thing that whiskey/burboun drinkers like in their old fashioned type drinks are single, large ice rocks and not the little broken ice chips that easily dilutes your drink. These are so easy to make yourself. Just buy an ice tray that makes them. The other thing whiskey/bourbon drinkers like in their drinks are the bourbon cherries and not just the plain maraschino cherries. Just two easy recommendations to elavate the experience. The staff was also very friendly.

    We hosted a gathering at the pub and they were very accommodating. We told them our budget and they…read moretold us what menu options fit within that. I found this very helpful instead of some other companies we got quotes from that had complicated pricing. The food was surprisingly good and they were accurate at helping us estimate how much food was needed for our group size. We had some left over at the end and they even boxed it up for us to take home! They were flexible with our timing and were well staffed during the event. They gave us their back room all to ourselves. I would recommend using them for a small gathering of 40 people of less.

    The Pub is a long time favorite in Keene. Open over 50 years!!!…read more I have wonderful memories of Pub breakfasts with family and friends and they continue to live up to expectation. Most recently I got the Brendan's favorite which is a special including an omelet with feta. I love that they still give you a tiny juice - its so old school and is really the perfect size cranberry juice. They also offer fresh hot biscuits as an alternative to toast, which are soft and lovely. I also got an ice coffee. My husband got the eggs Benedict. Food was wonderful. The only pitfall was the sugar free hot chocolate listed on the menu was not available and rumor has, it hasn't been available for quite some time. They should just buy a box!!!! My husband was so excited when he saw it on the menu. I was tickled that we were seated in the older part of the restaurant as I hadn't eaten in there in years and when I was a kid I always felt like it was fancy. Our waitress was wonderful and all the food service was reasonably prompt. The pub also serves lunch and has an awesome sounding dessert list. I hope it gets to serve Keene for many more years.
