I love the people here, they are awesome but they close early almost all the time and the food has taken a nose dive and isn’t very good. This is a place to drink after work or a place to watch the Buffalo Bills (this is a Bills bar) and they do a great job on those random days. But overall not a place I’d recommend in a city with so many options, this is your sleepy bar that’s going to close by 9:30pm and give you OK at best food (if they have what you ask for).

$9.90 for a pint of Guinness, and it didn’t even taste right. Ugh.

We went on a Bills and Eagles Gameday and it was most unfortunate that the music was so loud that we were unable to talk with everybody or even amongst ourselves at our own table. We often had to go outside to get a break from it and people complained about the music level. The place is wonderful, food was terrific and the wait staff were great but I'm reluctant to go back. I did ask to have the sound level lowered I was told that that would not happen. there were four of us who spent a lot of money and tip generously. It was really frustrating because everone wanted to socialize. If not for that we would have loved the place.

Gorgeous decor, Edison bulbs, old books, carved wood. Comfortable seating available.
Cons: Amazingly loud for a mostly empty restaurant (the music was blasting way too loud). A waitress seated us facing 4 screens playing sports. Then another brought our appetizer of corn beef rolls topped with slaw in a mustard horseradish sauce. But we had no plates silverware or napkins (I have not eaten coleslaw with bare hands and no napkins...so odd?) Got utensils and napkins finally, the rolls were AMAZING!!
But then, a large group came in to watch the screens and were staring through us and yelling sort of at me a foot away. So we moved tables to a quieter location. Husband who eats at this restaurant 5ish times a year, got nice fish and chips. I ordered the Irish breakfast. The meats are TOP quality, best I've had outside of UK. The eggs were not as I ordered them and the toast was stale, super sweet, and dry (NOT the sourdough on the menu). This could have been fixed if the waitresses had ever come back but they did not. No refills or checks on dinner they just sped past. (We were right on the route to and from the kitchen so were visible to the staff.)
Will have to try again and hope staffing issues are resolved by then.
