    My first time here and We had picked public house for brunch for my sisters baby shower, the vibe and ambience were perfect, the weather was great for outside seating. Taylor was our server, he was kind, patient, communicative and just all around a fabulous guy. Everyone ordered something different, and all of it was delicious. I ordered the short rib Benedict and licked the plate clean. Over all excellent experience and we will all definitely be back!

    Server was great, He was a busboy who got thrown into service. But we ended up leaving. 40 minutes and had to ask for water. Woefully unprepared for a Saturday night. Had friends in from out of town and left to go somewhere else. Just bad.

    Met a friend who was visiting from out of state for brunch. It’s been a few years since I went to Public House and the food and service were just as good as I remembered! Our waiter was great, super friendly, helpful and attentive!

    This restaurant is severely understaffed. We were sat at our table and waited 30 minutes (which was the case for several parties) before we had to go grab the attention of a busser who wasn’t even supposed to be working but was being held due to the lack of staff. There was an altercation at the bar. The food came out extremely fast and was barely warm which makes me think certain items were sitting out. Only reason this place is getting a fair rating is because of the busser and his quality of service after the issue was brought to his attention.

    We’ve been to Public House multiple times and this was the 2nd time in a row that the service was slow, and food mediocre. We probably won’t be back.

    Items not available from menu and this menu is crafted for the occasion. Ambience is not as per occasion and forced gratuity because of Valentine day. Gratuity is not high but not voluntary to mark the service. Food quality and presentation is good.

    First time coming here and overall, it was good. Service was OK. Took a while for a server to come to our table and get our drink order. Was not provided silverware initially. Had to ask after our appetizers came out. The server had his hands all over our forks, so health concern was an issue. I would not come back here or recommend to friends.
