   Consistent and fair every time. Never have had a bad experience - they give you way too many fries though

   Fish and chip were delicious! Enough for two to share. The salad had way too much dressing on it though, couldn’t eat it.

   One of the best pubs in Charlotte. Only gap is the poor music. Some better music, maybe even traditional Irish some nights would make this fantastic spot even better.

   Hey Graham, Thank you for the 5 stars. We do try to mix in some Irish tunes on our playlist but we also have a live traditional Irish band that plays every second Sunday. We also book traveling acts when they are passing through Charlotte. Hope you can catch one of these sets soon. Thanks for the visit and hope to see you again soon. Cheers -Tanner

   The food wasn’t that great. Everything had great presentation but wasn’t impressed. For the price it was fine. The mussels were probably the best. The Shepards pie needed more meat and less potatoes on top. The stew had way too much rosemary. Cute ambience in the back but more like a romantic pub.

   Decent food but nothing to write home about. Super busy on the weekend’s and very loud. Will continue to go back.

   Thanks for the 4 stars Sam. Hopefully on your next visit we can hit the mark better. Cheers -Tanner

   This is a neighborhood favorite for the pub feeling without leaving the US. Great food and amazing service.

   Best pint of Guinness in Charlotte. You have an old world feel and it’s great to see people talking to each other like they did 100 years ago

   Hey Christopher, Thanks for the Guinness shoutout. We take a lot of pride in our perfect pints. You and I would get along it sounds like. I constantly tell my staff that the art of conversation is dying and we need to encourage it more at the pub. Thanks for the 5 stars and we hope to see you back in for another pint. Cheers -Tanner

   We enjoyed an early dinner at the Workman’s Friend on a Sunday evening. The food was delicious and our server, Gabby, was delightful and helpful. The curried hummus, pub salad, cast iron chicken entree, and Guinness chocolate cheesecake were excellent (we split the chicken entree). The restaurant is boisterous in the bar area, but cozy in the dining area that includes a fireplace. We will be back.

   Debbie, thank you for visiting us and leaving a thorough review. We are so glad you enjoyed our menu and a cozy spot by the fire during this cold weather. We look forward to seeing you back again soon. Cheers -Tanner
