My wife and I visited for the first time since shortly after the new owner took over last year. To say we were disappointed would be an understatement. The previous owners had developed a creative food and drink menu, and the place just had a unique charm and a neat atmosphere that really distinguished it from their peers. It wasn’t pretentious, but it was a place you could feel comfortable ordering an off-menu cocktail. No more! Food items are being crossed out in sharpie on beat-up menus, the liquor selection appears to be shriveling down to the dive bar basics, and the new cocktail offerings are a far cry from what was being offered under the previous owners. When I inquired about the old...
UPDATE: While I understand they cannot respond to every comment, it really does seem like the new owner has stopped investing in this storied restaurant. The reviews tell a sad story. I really hope they can turn it around, but it almost seems like the new owner doesn't want to, or doesn't know how. Sad, but it's a cutthroat business. I hope it was just an off day, but the food was significantly worse than the last time we'd gone in early 2023, before the new owner took over. The once massive fried chicken sandwich looked small and sad. My burger was just average. Fries were barely cooked. The only saving graces were a cool waitress and a really solid happy hour domestic bucket special. It's...
This place used to be safe for the LGBTQIA community. Their recent fundraising for a know bigot (Bill Eigel), is a clear sign that they are no longer that place. The city of St. Louis deserves better. Spend your money at O'Connell's Pub or John D. McGurk's.

The best part of this experience was the Irish folk musicians. Food was lack luster and the Guinness pour was under filled. The coleslaw was rancid. I was excited to try this place, but left thoroughly disappointed.
My friend and I decided to try this restaurant after attending a Caroling event at the zoo lights. The roasted chicken was absolutely amazing. I opted for potatoes and substituted green beans for another side dish.
One server, waited almost an hour for food. Mistakes made on our order, food blah, cheese slices on the sandwiches were cold instead of melted. Loud, screaming kids. This was our second try. we're done!
I had such a wonderful time playing live music here! My family came and enjoyed the food and drinks while I played. All of the staff was very sweet. I would love to come back!

Decided to take a political platform, will NEVER eat here again. Absolute garbage new owners, don't seem to know what neighborhood they are in. Go back to the county.
This is such a great place. Beautiful atmosphere very welcoming staff, great food and the live music was spectacular. Definitely go back again.
