What visitors say

Stopped in after climbing the hill to visit the Goal. The Bar Keep was absolutely accommodating and flexible to provide liquid nutrition to famished Canadian tourists. Only stayed for a beer but atmosphere seemed excellent and the wood fired pizza oven cranking up for the day smelled Faboulus. Highly recommended.Ron Penley · 5★
Reyt good beer garden.nGood tap selection.nGreat pizzaBrad McAnearney · 5★
Fantastic beer! Had my favorite stout ever here - Murphy's 170th whiskey cask stout. Sad that I don't think I can find it at home. It was a delicious stout. Staff was friendly and fun. Loved the vibe in the pub. Patio area was terrific and relaxing. Love the tee shirts. (Pompeii Pizza is reviewed separately.)Jamie LeBourveau · 5★
