      We love their cherry beer and dark beer here. Very nice brews. They also do Wednesday specials, recommend for work gathering.

      The staff are, as previously noted, friendly and professional. The ambience is cheerful and welcoming. We didn't order food, but what we saw looked and smelled delicious. I'd go here a lot if I lived in the city.

      The food is good, famous for their mussel dishes but today I had the Caesar salad. Perfectly topped off with a poached egg it was a proper Caesar with the exception that it did not contain anchovies, only a dressing whilst the lamb roast promising roast spuds was substituted with mash.

      The other item that attracted us were the green-lipped muscles, mayo and fries. It was a fun stop for a mid afternoon snack. Decor was old world authentic and the food and drink was just what we hoped it would be.
