This is a local bar, and they definitely have the loyalty of it. Food is out of this world EVERY time. I'm convinced their tap beer is not cold enough so I usually get something from a can. They have trivia on Monday I believe, pool tables, dart, and different specials all week. Service is good just like any bar they might forget about you for a while. Wish I could give 3.5 because of their tap and no tv on the patio.

Food: 4Service: 4Ambiance: 4This used to be The Londoner and now it's The Smiling Dog. They still have some of the classics that were previously served. For a Pub the food here is definitely a solid 4 out of 5 for places is BR. If you're not visiting this spot on Tuesday for their burger& french fry special then youre missing out! It was called the Lincoln Burger, but it's either $6 or $7 now for the combo. The burger is good and the bun has a slight sweetness to it like a Hawaiian roll.The ambiance definitely fits the pub and the service is always solid. I've never had bad service here. It's been average at time and great at times. The Fish & Chips and the Shepherds Pie are solid dishes.

I really like this place especially for Sunday brunch. The Breakfast BLT is DELICIOUS and adding avocado to it makes it even yummier. I ordered their breakfast burger for the first time the other day & it was amazing! I'll definitely be ordering it again. I love the Breakfast Shepherd's Pie AND the Shepherd's Pie too. The Cajun Eggs Benedict and the Biscuits & Gravy are also good. If you love cheese, the Cheese Fries and the Grilled Cheese are both good but I always add extra cheese. The Steak & Ale Pie is really yummy too. I've been here lots of times and I've only had a problem with the food once. The hashbrowns were really dry and overcooked. I told the server and he didn't seem to care. He didn't offer to bring me fresh ones, apologize or anything. I guess they were just having an off day. They have a really nice dog friendly patio too. During fall/winter they light the fireplace and the heaters and it's a cool place to come and hangout with your pup. They also have weekly specials like $6 Burger night (Tues.) throughout the week.

I've now been here twice...Atmosphere: pool tables, darts and a mix of high tops and booths sets up diverse options depending on what you're looking for. Food: Dinner food was good (loved the Reuben) but brunch (corned beef hash) was lacking flavor. Service: servers were nice, but not particularly attentive either time. I was going to ask for gravy to spice up the corned beef has but the server didn't come back until we were almost done with our food. 4 stars are for dinner and ambiance

I've been stopping at this pub on & off for brunch since June of '21, it's been the go-to choice as it brunch menu is rather late than other places I've been interested in going to. The dishes so far have been amazing in quality & flavor, I highly recommend the Cajun Benedict , I've never had poached eggs before, but the flavor combination with the pulled pork on top of the biscuits made my mouth absolutely orgasm ( yes i said orgasm) with flavor.The hash browns that come with the meal are not the ones you'd typically get from waffle house, they're the diced potato kind and at first glance i was unimpressed. Then i took a bite and let me tell you those potatoes were seasoned oh so right, I had to pause for a moment before continuing my meal.The staff is always chill and relaxed, and I have yet to have any sort of gaunt experience with them. The overall aura of the place is always pleasant, although they allow dogs on the deck outside and it's usually not so bad, but the last time I went it was slightly bothersome with the barking but not too unpleasant that it ruined anything.

2nd time here. This time I ordered the full dinner size portion of their fish and chips, but subbed the onion rings instead of fries for a nominal $1.00 surcharge.The onion rings were nicely hand cut...not too thin or too thick - perfect thickness and SUPER crispy.The dinner size fish was HUGE... easily a full fish, nice and thick, well fried with a wonderful crisp batter.You've GOT TO COME HERE if craving fish & chips!!!!One of these days I'll come and try their hamburger. Said that last time but I kept craving there fish. LOL
