    80s music. Wings and good friend.. all I needed for good Friday night. Loved trying the new cocktails on the season menu. I highly recommend trying before it goes away. The Olde Mill and the Chai Cantina The wings are cooked to perfection Garlic Parmesan and sweet chilli I always order my wings naked then dip them into the sauce. Also tried Mom's chili and it was so delicious. The French fries also a hit! Loved the live music . Over all great spot. Amazing staff as well.

    We made a follow up visit to The Main Pub in Manchester, CT,. We had the pleasure of sampling a few dishes: the spinach and artichoke dip, fish and chips, and the blackened chicken Caesar salad. The spinach and artichoke dip, without a doubt, stole the show--it's the best we've ever tasted, creamy and packed with flavor. The fish and chips were equally delightful, offering a generous portion at a great price, with a crispy exterior and flavorful fish that hit all the right notes. The only hiccup was the blackened chicken Caesar salad--the chicken itself was unfortunately on the dry side, which detracted a bit from an otherwise enjoyable dish. However, the attentive service more than made up for it, with our server ensuring we were well taken care of throughout our meal. Overall, we're rating this experience a solid 7.5/10 and still happily recommend The Main Pub to others. It's worth revisiting for the inviting atmosphere, attentive staff, and menu standouts like that incredible spinach and artichoke dip. Give it a try--you might just find your new favorite go-to spot!

    We wanted to beat the heat (and wait out automotive service) so we sought out brewpubs. We had driven past a few times, but it was calling... The air was cool, the interior cozy, the atmosphere lovely (great tunes). A nice beer collection served up Counter Weight "Precious Petals" (yummy) and Bell's Two Hearted Ale, both of which were tasty. Son has been channeling Harry Potter and made the OG Hamburger disappear (Look, Ma, no wand!") with massive fries. My Ranchero Burger (BBQ enhanced) was superb. The BLT was great, but more than enough for slim esposa. We joined the loyalty program, and shall return!

    Nice, large patio area.

    First visit. Excellent. Big, easy parking lot. Large outdoor patio with many flowers. Indoor tables nicely separated. Best fish sandwich I've had for quite a while. Manager said they do a lot of fish in sandwiches, tacos, on salads etc and they get whole fish every day which they process on site. Worth the trip!

    Loved EVERYTHING about this place. Number one being how extremely clean it is.. how calm and beautiful it is. The decor is gorgeous. The staff is the SWEETEST and so attentive. Prices are great! The portions are perfect. The food was actually VERY delicious.. my favorite today was definitely the artichoke dip, it was crispy on top and creamy. My favorite artichoke dip will always be from here now. Also.. those pub fries!!! Wow! Also had their signature dry rub wings.. loved those too! Can't wait to try more of their foods!!

    I had lunch today at the main pub with my daughter and her in-laws. It was a delicious meal. The outstanding part was the honey mustard, aïoli sauce that we dipped our french fries in. Delicious I had a Long Island iced tea. That was very good. The second one was much stronger than the first and then I had a chicken sandwich with cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion. Delicious. The french fries were very good as well. I loved sitting at the bar. It was a great vibe.

    1st time here, and it was nice to see some different things on the menu vs the same ole stuff. We both decided on the fish tacos & each added a side to split of coleslaw & pub fries. It was a cold rainy day & the very strong coffee we ordered hit the spot. (not for the weak at heart) The pub fries were good, not the thick steak fries you would expect, & the coleslaw eas decent. It seemed to be a mix.. I don't like sweet coleslaw made w/ dressing, I'm more of a savory girl, but this did have sugar in it. Next time, I would opt for the fish & chips over the tacos because they were VERY MESSY! It was nice that they lightly toasted tortilla, filled w/ coleslaw at the bottom, a thick chunk of Avocado and the sauce on top made it very sloppy, too sloppy for public. The staff was very pleasant & the food came quickly. We even got an endorsement from a regular who couldnt say enough good things about the establishment. We opted to try a berry tart for dessert and it was gooood .

    Always a delicious meal at Main Pub. This was my first time having the Reuben kegs. Basically Tator tots stuffed with rice beef and cheese. They were delicious. The cob salad was prepared beautifully and all the ingredients were fresh. We also had the giant pretzel which was a tasty bar staple. Our staff were extremely attentive and helpful. The volume inside didn't feel too loud to be able to hold a conversation but also wasn't too quiet.

    I got the opportunity to attend the grand opening of Audacity in Manchester, CT and here's how it…read morewent! (Sorry this is so late. Lol.) Atmosphere/Appearance: Set right downtown Manchester on Main Street is this gem where Lucky Taco once stood. It echoes the standard British pubs and taverns from across the pond with deep yellow lighting, woods, exposed brick walls and open floorplan kind of vibe. It was lively, energetic and welcoming! Service: Lara took excellent care of us and she was very helpful! I had no issues at all. Food/Drinks: On the table when we arrived was an Irn Bru which is a SUPER popular drink sold in Scotland, often beating Coca-Cola in sales. It tasted like orange licorice, but it was actually pretty decent. Our first appetizer was an order of Crisps which were like thick cut potato chips with some garlic parmesan seasonings which I actually enjoyed! There was plenty of flavor from each component involved. Next up was the 007 which was their spin on the martini James Bond orders! In it is Wheatley Vodka, Bombay Gin, and English Tea Infused Lillet Blanc. It tasted like a dirty martini and was pretty strong! Smooth as well. I enjoyed it. Next up was a dish called Toad In The Hole which is Yorkshire pudding stuffed with smoked sausage then topped with caramelized onions and gravy. I have never seen anything like this before, but it was so strange, but pretty decent! The Yorkshire pudding was a bit eggy and dense. The gravy was a must though, since the other components of the dish lacked the salt that I was seeking. Next up was the Cloth Of Gold Old which is an Old Fashion with a twist which contained Old Forester, fresh lemon and honey. I enjoyed it, but I'm not sure why the mention of Old Fashion was on the menu unless this is supposed to differ from an "Old Fashioned". No matter, moving on. Next up were the Potato Pom Pom which are fired potato balls served with a house-made cheddar cheese sauce. It sounds like a simple dish. The cheese was thick, majorly cheddar-y. I really, really liked these! They tasted like a fancy tater tot. The potato inside was so soft and tender and the exterior was so crispy. My last drink of the night was the Bramble On Rose which is their take on a 1980's classic created in Soho, London. In it is Bombay Gin, fresh lemon, rose water and blackberry syrup. This was my favorite drink of the night. It was fresh, had some herbal flavors and the rose flavor made itself known. I really, really liked this drink and would certainly order it again. Lastly, the quintessential Fish & Chips! It's Atlantic cod in a brown ale batter, served with musky peas, chips, tartar sauce and a curry sauce. The curry sauce was surprisingly fantastic. I was blown away and absolutely needed more of it. The mushy peas resembled guacamole, but I had no idea how I was supposed to eat them. Lol. Were they a sauce? I don't know, but they tasted exactly how you'd think they'd taste. The fish was also fantastic. It was light, yet greasy and crispy. Value: The most expensive thing on the menu is $22.00. This place is not expensive at all so you certainly won't break the bank. Portions are decent size too. In conclusion, I absolutely enjoyed myself here and highly recommend you (reading this) to check it out! British food is... unpredictable if I must throw a word on it. Lol. Like, I almost couldn't predict what some of this stuff would taste like because I had never had anything like it before! Now, I'm a believer!

    I'm back! The restaurant is located on 829 Main St. in Manchester. Audacity British Style Pub is a…read moregastropub in Manchester, CT, offering authentic British cuisine like Fish n' Chips, Cottage Pie, and Bangers and Mash, alongside a selection of ales and cocktails in a cozy atmosphere. It's known for its friendly service, generous portions, and events like live music and karaoke, aiming to provide a unique UK pub experience.  They bring a huge pitcher and a few really small (8 oz) glasses. These complimentary chips are the best! Homemade and seasoned! For my first drink, I'm having the Cloth of Gold. This is an Old Fashioned recipe allegedly dating back to the 1600's. It is made with Old Forester, fresh lemon and honey (no bitters). This is nicely garnished and tastes good. I do think these glasses are only 10ox but I could be wrong. For my first item, I'm having the Chicken soup with rice and vegetables. This is steaming hot. The spoon is definitely oversized. It is very thick. Definitely a lot of chicken! This is real good! For my entree, I'm having the Atlantic Cod topped with buttery breadcrumbs and lemon bourre blanc sauce.Atlantic cod is a major commercial fish species found in the cold waters of the North Atlantic, ranging from North Carolina to the Barents Sea, and is renowned for its mild, flaky white meat. Lemon beurre blanc is a classic, rich French emulsified butter sauce brightened with lemon juice, white wine, and shallots, ideal for fish, seafood, or vegetables. It is made by reducing wine, lemon juice, and shallots, then whisking in cold, cubed butter off-heat to create a creamy, velvety texture. I'm having sides of cole slaw and a Caesar salad. This looks nice! That's a huge mound of cole slaw! That Caesar salad is huge (for a side dish)! This cod is steaming hot and tastes great! I love that sauce! For my last drink, I'm having an Obi Wan Negroni (which, just like the Jedi Master), is "out of this world." It is made with cold brewed infused Campari, Bombay gin and Carpano Antica Vermouth. You gotta love the light saber! This tastes like a coffee-infused Negroni. It's real good! For dessert, we are having the Blueberry Lemon Crumble Cake. Nice presentation! This is good! What a great meal here!

Just functional. I was there on an NFL Sunday. There were lots of regulars. There was good interaction with the staff. I didn't catch her name, but the woman who was the only person working the bar and waiting on the tables was amazing. She was super friendly to everyone. She hustled to meet everyone's needs. It wouldn't surprise me if she is an owner too. It's hard to find people, who aren't owners, who are that committed. I asked for a wing flavor recommendation and she said "Montreal Honey" first. I ordered 6. The wings are part-baked and then finished in a fryer. Good inner and outer texture. The Montreal Seasoning was right on. The Honey didn't have much of a presence either visually or flavor-wise. More was needed to balance the salt from the Montreal Seasoning and to justify the Honey in the name. I tried both the Blue Cheese and the Ranch. I'd recommend the Blue Cheese. I'll definitely return to try more wing flavors. I also ordered a crock of chili, which was full of ground beef and topped with melted cheddar and chopped red onions. The chili was solid. I'd probably try something else before I ordered it again though. I'm a fan of Hideaway and I'll be back. 4.25 Stars
