This place seems to have a bit of an identity crisis. It is a cross between a dive bar and a gastropub and it just feels a bit off. They have an impressive beer selection and the prices are decent too.
We sat on the patio with nobody else around and our dog was allowed to sit with us, so that is a bonus. Our server even brought out some water for the little guy. The downside is that we were approached a couple of times by people asking for money or food. The last thing I want to do is sit and try to enjoy myself as people repeatedly come up and ask me for handouts, so I knocked a star off for that.
All of the food we had was good but there wasn't anything that I would go out of my way to get. I will probably be back for a drinking lunch someday since I work nearby or to grab a beer that you can't find anywhere else nearby. Bottom line is that I'm neutral on this place - won't avoid it or go out of the way for it.
