This first-class pub and restaurant is a beautiful spot for an evening out in Madison. We stopped in for just a beer and a snack and were impressed at the decor, wondering if we were in over our heads. We sat at the bar, chatting with our friendly bartender, who cheerfully took time to help us choose the perfect brews for our tastes. The man next to us at the bar introduced himself, and lo and behold, we soon learned he was the owner--eager for us to try some of his favorite meals and his signature chocolate cake. His enthusiasm and warmth helped make it an enjoyable hour for us as we chatted, munched through a plate of wings (order them naked with dips--DELICIOUS) and watched the women's NCAA basketball finals. We left satisfied, warmed, and eager for yet another visit, next time for dinner. Maybe even for the St. Paddies Day event with bagpipers and green beer. We highly recommend this spot, which was busy even on a Tuesday night. It's easy to see why.
