Ok. I'm a pretty casual person. I just have to say the corned beef and Swiss on rye with sweet potato fries I had last night was a spiritual experience. Absolutely glorious!Barry & Red make everyone feel welcome. Russian/thousand Island on the corned beef, honey mustard on the sweet potato fries, my long day at work was relieved by this local pit-stop. Really friendly employees as well as customers. What a neighborhood gem!Also you KNOW I love my girl Debra the early evening bartender who knows everyone's name and what everyone drinks.

A neighborhood bar that is tacky. I live a few blocks away from this establishment. Unfortunately I will never come back here. I needed to use the bathroom quite urgently and I'm sure everyone has had that before. They forced me to buy something before I can even use the bathroom I said I would buy something after I use the bathroom but they said no. That is super tacky and not very hospitable as a neighborhood bar. I cannot recommend this place.

I've been passing by Custom House for some time and finally came in to see what it was about. Inside it had a typical Irish pub vibe. Dimly lit, wooden furniture, Irish flags hung around the bar. Some outdoor seating and indoor seating with a spacious bar which is were we decided to seat. I enjoyed their selection of cocktails that ranged from $13-18. We tried their custom margarita, lemonade, and mojito. The mojito had to be my favorite, it was sweet and tangy. All the drinks were strong and id definitely order them again. Unfortunately, there was no happy hour. Bartenders were great! Kind and attentive, always coming to check in. We ordered the "brooklyn bistro burger" which came with bacon and a fried egg. Definitely up there! huge portion, high quality ingredients, tons of flavor and cooked to perfection. Overall a solid bar, I will be back.

Okay so this is literally one of my favorite "Hangout after work" bars but this time I took my Adorkable guy with me for the first time ever. And as usual it didn't disappoint. Let's talk about it!Atmosphere! So this has like a divebar feel to it which I dig. When you walk in by the entrance there's like a couch you can chill on. When you reach the very back they have a projector that comes down so the customers can watch sports. There's pretty plates on the walls and some mirrors. I love how lively the place gets it's always a good time with good people. The bathroom is spacious and always clean every time I come as well so that's a plus for me! LolOkay food time ^_^Dranksss!My adorkable doesn't drink so he had a ginger ale. But I ended up getting a **Raspberry Margarita** which is not on the menu only because I asked if there was any flavors I can add to my margarita and they said we have raspberry and I said sure let's go for it lol. It was pretty good! Appetizers!Ground Beef Nachos:: So If you read any of my other reviews you already know that my bf and I loveee Nachos! I did want to bring some variety to this review so I ordered a second appetizer lol. He literally rated the Nachos 3 out 5 and I have to agree it wasn't bad by any means but the meat only had a little bit of seasoning. The texture was off because the ground beef was kind of dry not really juicy. There wasn't enough cheese it was kind of hiding on the bottom meaning once you're halfway through the food that's when you start tasting the cheese sauce. The chips were a little stale so overall the dish was mediocre. A way to combat this is well you can let them know if more seasoning is needed or if there's not enough cheese tell them that's an important part of Nachos! Lol Warm Spinach Dip:: I usually get this every time I come because it's so delicious. And it didn't disappoint! Cheese yummy goodness with spinach? You literally can't go wrong! My chips were kind of stale as well but the dip made up for the taste of the chips so I was a happy camper! LolEntrées! (It gets better just hold on lol)Chicken quesadilla:: it was really good the chicken was juicy and the cheese was monetary jack and cheddar so I was in heaven lol. The Housemade Guacamole was soooo fresh and delicious! Fish & Chips:: This was a Chantel Showstopper! Once again my bf gets a dish I love more than mine lol. The fish was surprisingly huge it was succulent moist and it literally melts in your mouth. The fries were like a 3/5 because it just wasn't salty enough to our liking lolOverall I'm still going to come back because there's so many different things on the menu to try and try again! For example one time when I came with my coworkers we had their wings and calamari and they were so good. I'll update my review when I come here next time and try other things but seriously guys come for the fish and chips because that fish was amazing! Until next time happy eating ^_^

Clean inside, & friendly staff; & Decent food & beer selection - but beers are super over-priced - they are either trying to rape their neighbors, or assume they are all millionaire movie stars, or both. A 12-oz pour of 6 point should not be $10!? Never again.

Stopped by here after work on a Friday evening for a quick bite and drink before heading home. Not many people inside as the work crowd hasn't gotten back to pre-pandemic levels just yet. Was able to sit at the bar without any wait.Bartender shows up shortly after we sat down asking for an order, though we didn't get menus/draft list in advance. Settled on a Brooklyn Lager ($7), while also splitting a batch of French Fries ($7). The fries are hot out of the fryer and well crisped, could have used more salt all around. Service here is up and down. Seems like management was busy getting some stuff together for the night and I wasn't sure what the final bill was going to be until the check came. Doesn't seem to be any happy hour as well, so maybe a better option for lunch.

Not a fan, sorry to say. The place reeks of stale beer and not impressed with the cleanliness of the establishment. Also thought that the restaurant manager was pretty rude to people. In all not a great experience. With so many choices in the area I will take this one off the list and you should too.

Been there many times. Also ordered food for a small party at my apartment. Never disappointed. The customer complaining here of cleanliness mustn't eat in neighborhood pubs often. The Custom House as clean as any I've frequented, and comfortable too. A boon to the neighborhood with well-spaced tables so customers aren't sitting on top of each other like at other Heights restaurants. The owner--very friendly and helpful-- is usually on hand . Great food and vibe.

Given the number of 1-star reviews, clearly this is nothing new. All I can say is avoid at all costs. Beyond the mediocrity of the food and the overpriced drinks, the staff could not be less friendly. The bartender and the host made us feel entirely unwelcome and audibly yelled "JESUS CHRIST" because I said I was not ready for a beer. Mind you, we had just walked in and my friend already ordered one. It was utterly unbelievable. They claimed we were just using them "for their TVs and air conditioning". I mean, come on. Please, please...stay away. This establishment deserves to lose business.
