The Public House

Randomly came here for trivia night, pleasantly surprised by our experience. We didn’t know anything about this place but decided to try it out. We ordered a few things off happy hour menu and they came out better and more than we expected! Would definitely come back again!

Well on Thursday they have a fantastic burger special with fries and the burger is off the hook. Also the mac and cheese is fantastic. And they also have a pool table which is cool. And a lot of different craft beers it looks like as well. I was so darn hungry that I from traveling that I forgot to take pictures of the food but it was well presented in delicious.

I attended a work event at Public House and was warmly greeted by the hostess, Kira, upon arrival. I grabbed a seat at the bar and took advantage of the happy hour menu, ordering a glass of white wine and the fried lasagna rolls. When they arrived, they looked delicious, though I doubted I’d finish them all. However, after just one bite, I was hooked. The pasta, lightly coated in breadcrumbs, filled with cheese, and served with marinara dipping sauce, was absolutely delightful—I’d definitely order it again. Our work event took place in one of the private rooms, and our server, Nick, was professional, attentive, and friendly throughout. The atmosphere was a bit on the darker side but still had a cozy, inviting feel.

*Pictures taken about halfway through eating because I forgot to take them before.* My husband and I ordered takeout about an hour before closing. First, the atmosphere in the restaurant was appealing (even though we didn’t stay) and the employees we encountered were all really nice. That said, we were not totally pleased with the food itself. My husband ordered the tikka masala and I got the PH Dip sandwich with fries. We also got some bourbon bbq wings to share and some cheesecake and bread pudding for dessert. Unfortunately, I did not receive the au jus that was supposed to come with my sandwich. The restaurant was closed by the time we got home and realized it, so I had to power through lol. The overall experience ending up being a bit dry and bland. That said, the aioli on it was delicious and I really think the au jus would have tied everything together. I also loved the fries, they were well seasoned and stayed crispy even after they cooled down. We were less than impressed with the tikka masala and found it lacking in flavor. The wings were okay, but could have been crispier. The desserts were also decent, but I think they were overpriced (12.99 each) for the size and quality given (see pictures). Overall, we may be willing to come back and try certain things, but we’d avoid some others.

We were looking for a local low key spot to grab dinner after enjoying Winterfest. We walked in, weren’t greeted and stood at the front until someone realized we were there. After grabbing a seat in an almost empty room, it took another five minutes to get water. The appetizers were the same prices as the meals. The menu sounded great but when the food came out it was hard to choke down. My daughter got the French Dip and Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese was decent but the meat tasted overdone and over seasoned. I had the Sweet and Spicy Toasted Cheese. The bread was perfectly toasted but the cheese inside was still cold, and there were raw slices of jalapeños. There was so much aioli it overtook the flavor of the sandwich. The brussel sprouts were very good. The service was also a bust, we didn’t get straws, or refills. To top things off, there is an extra charge for cc vs cash.

It's a good place but used to be a lot better. They changed the menu a ton each time getting smaller and smaller with the price going up. Every time a rework would come out me and my friends would lose our favorite dishes. They have amazing trivia on Tuesday nights They have pool tables as well

You’ll find a nice selection of beers and some pool tables here. They have a room in the back with two pool tables and a bar. You can also smoke in that room, but it was very warm in there. I went in there for more drinks and started sweating immediately, but everyone in there seemed to be having a good time. There’s also a smaller room off to the side with a pool table. Operating the coin mechanism was a little janky but you can make it work. They also have a covered patio. Overall not a bad place to check out.

Kara is an amazing server. The lights are a little low, but look at this amazing double patty burger. $10 on burger night. And they run a happy hour. Makes for a great Thursday. This burger is crazy good. I know a place that does $6, but this is worth every penny. Not super greasy. Bun isn't soggy. Fries are perfect. No notes! And if you read my other stuff I usually try to add some things that could be done better. Staff was great. Food was great. Prices were great. Selectiin of beer is great. Timing was great. And Karaoke night is pretty fun (different night.) I'm sure I sound like I'm fan boying, but as always, I don't get paid for any reviews. They 100% earned it. Good job!
