After looking at reviews, my wife and I decided to try NPL on a Friday night. Like most restaurants on Friday, either show up early or be prepared to wait. Even though it was a cold night, we were sat on the patio. It was nice because they had a fire place and heaters and the patio is less crowded and cramped than the seats inside.
The wait staff was ok, but i was not overly impressed. It is tough to judge on only one visit, but I don't like to have an empty drink cup for as long as we had.
The food was above average bar food. We ended up ordering the Lounge fries and the giant fish sandwich with a side of onion rings. The cheese sauce on the fries was delicious and much better than the neon orange cheese sauce you get at a lot of other places. The fish was cod and was pretty good but a little greasy. Overall, we did not leave hungry and I would order everything we did again.
