    Great service and excellent food. A road detour brought us to Mankato and we stopped here. Happy bellies!

    We love this place! Known for their Sloppy Joe, it's always a safe staple to order. Their homemade chips are absolutely amazing. The beer-battered fish and chips was fantastic, alongside a perfectly poured Black-&-Tan, it's well worth ordering. The mushroom & Swiss was excellent as well. Great local place to hang out, it offers a relaxing atmosphere and the service is top notch. One of our favorites in Mankato.

    Heads up... park in the back or in the ramp, it's nearly impossible to get parking in front of the restaurant. We ordered stoner chips as an appetizer, pulled pork and cheese over homemade potato chips with some ranch ish sauce drizzled over it. Very good. I ordered turbo meatballs off of the appetizer menu, comes with 4 meatballs and potato wedges with buffalo sauce and Italian sauce.. it could have used more meatballs otherwise it would be hard to split with more than 2 people. My wife ordered buffalo wings. The food tasted great, only lost 1 star due to the lack of meatballs in the turbo meatballs making it a little high priced and challenging to share with a group and ended up being about a $50 bill essentially for 3 appetizers. Service was great as well, efficient, friendly, and we didn't have to wait long for anything.

    Service was phenomenal! Came in for brunch around 10:15 on a Sunday and our waitress was wonderful. We had the Bloody Mary burger, Good Gravy, and two of the specialty Bloody Mary's! It was pretty quiet around this time so no reservation needed. Would definitely visit this place again next time we are in town.

    Decent breakfast fare. Friendly service. The breakfast cheesy potatoes are more of a mushy paste. I would avoid them.

    We stopped by on a Saturday as we were looking for a good family lunch spot and the other Yelp…read morereviews were good. The whole experience seemed flustered. The host originally seated us in a space that did not fit our party. Then he moved us to a center spot in a long, family-style table with people on either side of us. We had a five year old with us who was overly tired and very spunky and we had to try to keep her focused on us and not our neighboring patrons. Was really not the most appropriate seating for children but we didn't want to ask for yet another table. Soon after we sat down, we discovered that the parties on both sides of us were upset and looking for any employee so they could express their frustration. Seeing as we were all so close, we could hear them complain to others in their parties about the service. We learned shortly that we should have written up our losses early and moved on. We didn't. We ordered our beverages and immediately got water. The rest (2 soft drinks, an iced tea, and a milk) slowly trickled out one by one. The waiter apologized every single time he came to the table about how slow everything was from us being seated to getting our drinks to him coming to take our order. Once the food came out, he was apologizing again for how long that took. He wasn't wrong. As for the food, it was fine. Portions were average to smallish for the price. It wasn't as special as we had hoped it would be based on the descriptions. We each got something different and all said that we wouldn't order that item again. Not that it was bad. It just wasn't good. The best thing we had was the pretzel stick appetizer. That was pretty good but for the price, we wouldn't order it again. Nothing was super memorable except the decor which was super fun to look at. Oh and the very apologetic waiter. Our food came out hot. Turns out that was not true for the table to our left. The table to our right got the wrong food so half their group was done while the others were just starting. Apparently one of the cooks had called in. So, over all, I gave them an optimistic 3 stars. It was like a participation award with the assumption that if they were firing on all cylinders, it could have been much better. Personally, i wouldn't try them again but as the only Irish pub in the area, it could be a neat happy hour hang out. It just was not a family lunch spot.

    A sign outside said the restaurant was open while construction was underway, but we saw no disarray…read moreinside. Maybe the work was going on in another room. We visited here mostly because their online menu, and their menu inside, said they serve Kilkenny, one of my husband's favorite beers and one that is rare to find. Unfortunately, we were informed right away that they no longer serve it, either, as the distributor was struggling to get it. Alas. That is the only complaint we have, though. Service was great, busy as the place was on a Saturday at lunchtime. I had a Magner's cider while my husband made do with Schells Octoberfest. The cheese curds were absolute artwork, some of the best we've had in ages. I had the beet and goat cheese salad. It was huge with very fresh ingredients, quite filling without an added protein. My husband had a burger and fries and really enjoyed them.
