I love Sam B's description of this place as a hybrid of Hickory Tavern and a Scottish pub---totally agree! The space here is huge and I'm happy something finally moved into here after being vacant after Daddy's went bye bye. I normally don't like to go to a Scottish or Irish bar if I'm not going to enjoy an adult beverage but stopped here for lunch today to see what it's all about. Love the mustard colored walls and how they set up the bar area to look authentic. You can sit wherever you want during lunch time and at the booth they had butt pads to keep your tush comfy--who doesn't like that?
I got the Molly's Favorite. The sandwich was good, I think. It was different. The cheddar, green apple and maple butter was the trio that sold me on getting it but the flavor didn't jive as well as I thought it would. I think it would be good without the maple butter since I found it to be too savory for my taste. However, the potato chips? I could have had a plate of those and been happy. They had an amazing seasoning on them (which I am now on a mission to find out what it is!) and very fresh. They have two BOGO coupon's in the Citipass book this year and could see it being a great spot to hang or dine if you're Uptown but wouldn't make a trip solely just to go there. A good experience but think I will check it out to drink next time.
