I have left wonderful reviews in the past for this place but I have to share my experience…read morerecently. My boyfriend and I have been to Standard Pub several times during the day, and every visit has been fantastic. We've enjoyed the food, drinks, and even had the pleasure of speaking with the owner on multiple occasions. The service was always welcoming, and the food was consistently phenomenal. Because of those great experiences, we decided to bring some friends on a Saturday night. We arrived around 7:30 PM, and the atmosphere looked promising. There appeared to be a DJ setting up, and the crowd seemed excited for a night of music, food, and drinks. Unfortunately, our experience that evening was completely different from what we had come to expect. We ordered food and drinks, and while our server wasn't outright rude, he seemed uninterested in providing the level of service we had previously received. As the night went on, things became increasingly odd. Shortly after ordering another round of drinks, while our drinks were still full and we had just received them, the server approached our table and asked if we were finished. My boyfriend jokingly responded, "No, let me talk to your manager," and laughed, assuming the server was joking as well. The server responded, "Yeah, it's my brother," but with an attitude that left everyone at our table looking at each other wondering what had just happened. He then informed us that we needed to put a credit card on file. At that point, we had already been there for over an hour, and it seemed strange that this requirement was only being brought up then. We also noticed that no other tables around us were being asked for a card. The most disappointing part came when we received the bill. There was an additional $60 service charge added--$35 on my friends' bill and $25 on ours. Confused, we asked for an explanation. The explanations we received kept changing. First, we were told it was because my boyfriend was sitting with another group, which was completely false. Then we were told it was because the bill exceeded $100. After that, we were told it was because there were more than six people in our party, despite there only being four of us. The inconsistent explanations were frustrating and made it feel as though the staff were simply making up reasons to justify the charge. Our issue wasn't necessarily with a service fee itself--it was the lack of disclosure and the conflicting stories we were given when we asked about it. To make matters worse, the receipt also included a separate line for an additional tip. After discussing it with them and explaining that additional charges should be clearly communicated to customers, the service charge was ultimately removed. This review is not a reflection of the food, which remains excellent, nor of our previous experiences at Standard Pub. It is solely based on the service and handling of the situation during our Saturday night visit. We left feeling disappointed and confused, especially because this establishment had earned our trust through many positive visits in the past. I sincerely hope this was an isolated incident and that management addresses these issues so other customers don't have a similar experience

The pub is located in a corner of a strip mall. Doesn't seem much on the outside but I was…read morepleasantly surprise when I walked in. It is bigger than I imagine and the ambiance was nice. 16 draft beer on tap and a wide varieties of mix cocktails. A good food menu. There are special offering on certain day. Went there for the World Cup games 3 times so far and I enjoyed the visit each time. Look like you can make reservations for tables on game day. Service was friendly as I sat at the bar. Go check out this hidden gem and it could be your favorite hangout spot in the future.

I left very happy.

I would give it 5 stars for the friendly service! But I had to knock off 2 stars because what I ordered was not very good. I ordered the Thai tacos and they offered a low-carb version on a bed of lettuce instead of tortillas. The presentation was nice and I know they really tried, but it was pretty bad. The sauce tasted more like ketchup and did not taste like a Thai sauce at all. It was supposed to have chopped peanuts in it but it hardly had any. The chopped chicken pieces were drowned out by the ketchup tasting sauce. I thought there would be more avocado on it but there was only a tiny piece on each taco and they chose a bad avocado because the avocado was turning brown with stringy fiber in it. I couldn't eat it after a few bites. On the other hand hubby had fish and chips which he liked. The french fries were good. So my dish was a bomb while hubby's was decent and predictable. I would return if I'm in the area because the service is so friendly and nice, but I would not order that again. I would try something more mainstream that's hard to botch up like maybe a hamburger or a sandwich.

I usually like to bring coworkers or clients here for lunch because it is so quiet and they are very attentive. Food has consistently stayed the same. Although I did notice that their complimentary chips and salsa has been reduced from three different salsas and options down to just one now! I liked the other two options of refried beans and pickled vegetables (I think). Overall, ambiance is always great here. I prefer indoor seating over outdoors during summer and winter time.

Great service makes such a difference! We're so glad we found Almond Wood and can't wait to stop in again on our next visit. Highly recommend!

Just wanna start off by giving a big shout out to the Black Sheep staff!! Great service throughout…read moreour whole time being there. We did call ahead and make a reservation. We were having a small birthday celebration just four of us. We asked if there was a charge if we brought our own cake and they said no, come in and we will help you celebrate We found out that they just opened a tiki bar on the patio so we headed out there and grabbed a couple of drinks. They were delicious, not too sweet and in some fun tiki glasses. Had a couple of appetizers loved the sauce on the wings and the pretzels were soft and you could tell the beer cheese was housemade. Would definitely go back again!

I've been to this place a few times and always left dissatisfied…read more The menus are literally falling apart and just have a dirty, nasty feel to them. The food is just okay. Barely okay to be honest. It really feels like a bar that happens to sell food to people who are too inebriated to know if it's good or not. The burnt end tacos.... No! Blueberries and barbecue sauce... No!!! I'm really not trying to be mean. They have decent live music and the atmosphere seems to be cool, but the food is seriously lacking in my opinion, be it fish and chips, burgers, salad... It's for somebody I'm sure, but it's not for me. Also, "wagyu" has 2 different spellings on their menu. I think that's something small that can be corrected rather quickly.
