| - Now this here was a good recommendation and a pleasant surprise. This location is literally a hole in the wall (or a small hallway through a wall). You have a tiny path to walk between tables squished up against the wall and the bar. Behind the bar is where the employees are cramped between the ovens and the cooking area/bar making stuff up for the customers and tripping over one another trying to maneuver around in that tiny space. Now...don't be distressed. It was actually a good experience.
I stopped in after work by myself, pulled up a seat at the bar. A nice young lady from behind the bar came up to take my order. I had never been here before, so had some questions. Also, not being a huge onion fan (at least if they are really strong) I asked about the Porky, which aside from onion in the ingredient list, looked quite good. She assured me the taste was mild and I would not notice. I took her at her word and she was correct. I did not notice and enjoyed my porky. I got it along with a hard cider and garlic roasted "chips" (fries).
All in all...I was impressed by the good service, very knowledgeable staff, and in general, good food. I think I might enjoy some of the other pasties(sp?) a bit more...but the Porky was good and quite flavorful. The fries...the garlic they baked them with didn't really stick...so it was hit and miss...but overall...still good. My only complaint really was by the time I got a beer, meal, and fries, it was nearly $20. $7+ for the entree, $5 for the cider, and ~$3 for the fries. Somewhat pricey. But otherwise, good. Top-notch service.
