The Elgin Public House does not make their own beer, but their website promised a good selection of bottled beer and scotch along with better than average pub grub.
As is usual for me, I visited this establishment on a Saturday afternoon. I parked across the street in a free parking garage.
As we walked in it was pretty empty and we had our choice of seating. We chose to sit at a table in the small bar area. The decor was just what we like with a minimum amount of TVs and plenty of dark wood. Nothing too fancy. There was music playing at a reasonable volume that still allowed us to converse.
The bartender/waiter arrived promptly with menus. I started with an Aberlour scotch on the rocks and my wife had a Victory Golden Monkey.
The beer was served ice cold, but that can be resolved with a little waiting. The scotch was a new find for me and it was delicious.
After our first drink, we ordered food. The bucket of bones (ribs) was tasty. The "filet" steak sandwich was a little tough, but tasty. Both meals were served in small buckets. I wasn't particularly fond of this presentation.
Another round of beers and we were feeling full and happy.
Overall I enjoyed the Elgin Public House and I will definitely be back.
The food is a hit or miss at affodable prices. The decor/ambiance leaves little to be desired.
Great food and all types of beer to choose. Just awsome .
