Didnt get around to trying the food but had two glasses of wine and was a little underwhelmed by the selections. Given they ONLY serve wine, I thought they might have flights in addition to glasses. But I didnt see any flights. While the service was fine, I did sort catch them lounging around in on the couches on their phones while on shift. I get its slow but its just not a good look. The location is right at the end of a street so there are constantly cars making u turns and coming in and out of parking. So sitting outside isnt terribly ambient. IDK, it was truly a fine experience but I have no desire to go back.

Food / Drink 5 Service 4…read more Ambiance 5 I don't understand these reviews. This is a pub, pure and simple. It's an excellent pub at that. Pre-pandemic I worked in downtown Palo Alto. I and others on my team were regulars here. Food: TBH, it's all about the deviled eggs. The menu is tiny, and traditional pub fair. They aren't trying to be fancy and they aren't trying to earn any Michelin stars. They're delivering exactly what you should come to expect here and places like it. I respect any place that pours a proper pint. They also have a fine selection of bourbon, whiskey, and scotch. This is not the place for mixologists and craft cocktails. This is the place for people who know what they want to drink and actually enjoy the alcohol. Service: I was there around 4:30 - 5 o'clock and there were only a couple people at the bar. It looked like it could have been a shift change. Clearly the bartenders knew regulars. However, they didn't seem to be very interested in chatting up any new customers. My guess is they did not build this regular clientele, but rather inherited it. I grew up in the industry and was behind the bar for about 12 years. Yes, I learned all the fancy drinks and had an amazing cadre of condiments including those fancy little umbrellas. This is the kind of place where I would prefer to work myself. The kind of place where community comes together and good bartenders remind us all that pubs have long been in the business of solving the loneliness crisis and building friendships.

Am already inspired and planning an impromptu birthday gathering and some other community events here--especially since John and his team are a creative delight to co-create magic with! So happy to have found a wonderful, community-driven, and dog-friendly spot with heated outdoor seating, fantastic wine, delicious food, and a welcoming atmosphere.

I also saw there is a private entrance for those who live in the adjoining Springline apartments, which look very nice! It's nice to have this place in the area, and I'll definitely be back!

He came out and said they were all out of Dutch crunch and any bread rolls. Surprised they ran out of bread when it was barely lunch time? He ordered the spicy chicken breast sandwich on sourdough and got a side of the mango habanero sauce. Thought the sandwich was ok. The sourdough bread didn't taste that sour at all. The mango habanero sauce was probably what made the sandwich better. If I lived in the area, then maybe I would try something else but wouldn't make the drive to get their sandwiches.

I was offered help and directed to chat with Aaron in the Mariners cap. I showed him a photo of my wife's favorite wine and said, "She loves this, but isn't a big wine drinker, so I'm looking for something she'll like that isn't $40 a bottle." He turned and walked straight over to a particular bottle and handed it to me. "Very similar, even has some of the same words on the label, and is only $20." I see from the label that it's specifically imported by them. Then I picked out a bottle of southern Italian red that got great reviews on Vivino. At checkout, Aaron kind of pulled it away from me and shook his head. Then he went and picked out a Sicilian one. I haven't tried either yet, but I really like this kind of service. This is what I need to refine what I like most. I expect to come back here with an update.
