This place is a gem on Portland Street. We stopped in for lunch while waiting for our bus. The atmosphere is wonderfully cozy, making it a perfect spot to relax. There are several games available, which is great for parents with kids. The layout features various smaller seating areas and corners to choose from. They offer a 2-for-1 cocktail deal and shareable plates, both of which I found to be very tasty. The restrooms are located upstairs and were quite decent. Overall, it's an excellent value for the money spent.

This restaurant is in a fantastic location on Portland Street, ideal for watching sports on multiple TV screens. My group visited on a Saturday afternoon around noon, and we were pleased to find something to eat. However, when we inquired at the bar, a staff member informed us that they didn't serve food. When I asked why, I was told they had run out of plates. I suggest they should have someone clear away the dirty dishes from the tables, as it was quite noticeable when we arrived.

The staff was incredibly helpful, and the sub sandwiches were delicious. Highly recommend!

I ordered the BBQ mac burger, and while it was decent, it could have used an additional five minutes on the grill. The cocktails are pre-mixed, quite sweet, and served in half-pint glasses. I gave a rating of three stars for service solely because the young lady who brought us our food was very polite.

The server, Kayley (I believe that was her name), was a bit lethargic in her speech, making it difficult to understand her. However, there was another young lady with colorful hair who also served our food, and she was the complete opposite—pleasant, polite, and friendly. On another note, I noticed two ladies at a different table had to wipe their own table down. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend eating here, and I suggest that customers carefully check their food before enjoying it.
