Loud and busy but food and drinks were all wonderful. Live band in the back on the Friday night we visited. Great tap selection, local breweries well represented.

Our first time here. We came for dinner and I ordered the highly favored candied Caliente burger and husband had the flatbread pizza. They specialize in beers with a full blown beer menu and distillery in the back. Wait staff was good. The ambience is loud.

First time coming here and we absolutely loved it. I'm a huge fan of pub food so I knew exactly what I wanted. We ordered the siracha shrimp tacos and carnitas street tacos. Both were a hit and very filling. For $14 this meal was such a good deal. I forgot to catch our waiter's name but she was nice and checked on us frequently. Definitely gonna come back to try the burgers since it's very popular as well.

Open air patio (in the Fall, at least) and clean spare interior are welcoming. Service was good despite there being one server. We both asked for iced tea which came out quickly. My husband had been here before and ordered a Chicken Spinach Salad. I asked for recommendations from our server, Stephanie, who said the Rueben was very popular (and one of her favorites), so I ordered that. I got pub fries as my side, based on other reviews. The food took a little while to be served, but it looked beautiful when it arrived at the table (see pictures). The salad was gorgeous and fresh and my husband commented that it was even better than on his previous visit. My sandwich was also plated beautifully, and it tasted as good as it looked. Their Ruben is slightly different than most: it is served on grilled sourdough rather than rye and has pepper jack cheese instead of Swiss. The sambal aioli is a change from the normal thousand island dressing. Altogether it was delicious. I look forward to returning and trying the Carnitas tacos and the burgers!

The sriancha street tacos were excellent! High quality, high grade. A couple in our hotel mentioned they ate there every night they stayed here. Green Chili Ale. I highly recommend it.

We just visited the Public House at Alexander! Crazy neat place built in 1928... unique place with wide open space... They have 30 beers on tap and we found our tangerine cream ale and it was fantastic. The staff was friendly when we walked in and we started with an order of their fired green tomatoes. These were seriously the best we have had since we left the state of Alabama. They were crispy and cooked perfectly. Not greasy or oily and the mustard sauce over the top with a sprinkle of Cajun seasoning made it better! The crumbled goat cheese was the perfect topper to the appetizer. My wife does not like goat cheese but loved everything about this appetizer. We asked for hot sauce and never used it! We decided to try the Green Chile Mac and Cheese with Chicken and added the bacon as recommended by our server. The chicken was cooked perfectly. Juicy and moist inside with a perfect sear on the outside. We loved the flavors and the bacon was nice and crisp. We shared a side of the pub fries and they were crisp, hot and well seasoned. Could not ask for better service or food. The kitchen was immaculate and we cannot wait to try their burgers or other amazing dishes. The specials sounded amazing as well...
