    All depends what you are looking for.....: I have been there for brunch many times and for dinner once or twice. The food is pretty good for pub grub. Phantom Gourmet raved about their pizzas. They were good, but not what I expected after having been listed as a Phantom Great Ate for Pizza. For brunch, I suggest the stuffed French Toast (very rich and very decadent), "The Usual" or the omelettes. Off the regular menu, the mac and cheese was a good choice! The servers are friendly but even on a slow day, they seem to disappear someplace. But once you "found" them, they were very pleasant. On cool days, bring a sweater or sweatshirt, especially if you plan to sit near the front windows. They are not insulated and quite drafty. I have seen many people (besides myself) sitting there in the winter time with their sweater and a jacket on top of it while eating.

    Fun Pool, Pricey Beer: The service wasn't particularly great, but the crowd was. Great pool tables, good place to go with groups, but the drinks are expensive. Go for the Big City margarita with the souvenier glass. :)
