But everyone gets the Philly because it's amazing as well. Their fries are delicious, burgers are great, so we've tried a bunch of stuff and never had a miss. Prices: Perfect. We go every week because it's one of the only places around with great food and it never breaks the bank. Service: I just want to give them all the praise here. Everyone is amazing. Kelly and Clyde have set up a fun as hell bar with a family environment. We have never had a bad experience and the service is always top notch and fun. We love it and wish we could give it 10 stars!!!

The menu is concise but varied and we were surprised at the vegan/vegetarian/gluten free noted choices We tried the huge crispy onion rings, the soup of the week, the fish and chips and the ploughman's lunch. I would recommend all of them and especially when washed down with a Guinness. Ask for the special sauces to dip your chips - curry and a great tartar sauce. The kitchen seems to enjoy fixing interesting takes on traditional dishes also so trust them and see how it goes. You'll be happy.

Great selection of beers, drinks, regular food items and of course Irish food at this fun spot right on Main St. I had an Irish ale turned green that was cold one tasty. They even turned my wife's cider green which was a nice addition to the day's celebration. The scotch eggs were delicious. Hard boiled eggs wrapped in flavorful sausage that are baked and then served chilled. The dressing and dipping sauce went perfectly with the dish. Really a fun spot all around with great service, fun and hip atmosphere whether it's St. Patrick's Day or not. We'll be back!

I had leftovers for the next day. My husband ordered the salmon with wild rice and collard greens. He said the salmon and rice were amazing. The collard greens were what you might expect for collard greens but still good and healthy. :-) This was one of our best meals while in Blowing Rock. You don't want to miss this place.

Pineville is a small town and this is a local bar. I cannot speak to the food as we did not eat here. The ambiance was cozy and the locals were nice. There was a small patio out back if you wanted to have your drink outside. But there were no chairs. The restroom was clean and I really loved the private booths near the bar. The walls of the booths went all the way up to the ceiling. You will also notice the Irish influence throughout the bar.

While I recommend eating her, I do not recommend the fish and chips. The server suggested the Ruben egg rolls and the burgers. I would choose those next time.

I would never come here if I was in a hurry, but if you have 2+ hours to eat and want good food in a storied place with staff who will treat you like friends, you're going to love the Rampant Lion. NOTES: -In rural TN, it should not surprise you, but be aware that they have Trump displays in the restaurant. -The restrooms are single stall and accessed from outdoor. They're indoor restrooms - just the door to access them is on the outside. (No porta potties) They're solidly clean - just make sure to pack clothing that works for the temperature outside because you might be dipping outside a few times. -Parking lot is small and gravel. Relatively easy to get in and out of though. -Amazing gin selection with staff that *clearly* knows their gins. -Adorable photos of the owners on slideshow of their trip to Europe on the wall. It's adorably and clearly a couple who was on a good vacation. We've had a good chunk of their menu at this point. Pretzels: Delicious beer chese AND delicious pretzels. Quite a bit of food with this too. Bread, Oil, & Vinegar: Wasn't super fond of this one. A ton of oil in a bowl made it hard to get the right oil-to-vinegar ratio. Chicken Pie: Deliciously breaded with super-tasty french fries too. Served piping hot, so it took a bit to be able to eat it without burning myself but a wait well-made. Reuben: Partner absolutely loved it and said the bread was the absolute perfect consistency. SO much meat in there too (though he said it could use a bit of extra dressing). Bubbles and Squeak: Delicious. Just delicious. Zero notes, you should eat it. Beanie Weenies: Home-made right in the restaurant! My favorite thing on the menu. Super savory, semi-healthy (beans...at least?), and served super warm. Comfort food at its finest. Menu in-restaurant was different than online one on a few things.

The older gentleman behind the bar is always helpful and kind. The only thing I would add to this place is some type of roof or awning on the back patio. Step out there at 1 p.m on a hot Saturday afternoon and you'll be in for a rude awakening. The front patio is quaint and cool to hangout on. Overall two thumbs up over here
