The food was fair at best. The service was poor. There was one person serving as host, waiter, and busboy. He received no help from the bartender who wasn’t busy yet never left the bar to assist. And to top it off, when we went to redeem our 2015 Entertainment coupon, they wouldn’t honor it… stating, «We didn’t pay to participate in that coupon book this year. They just listed us.» Eliciting a response from my teenage daughter, «They didn’t pay for the promotion they are benefiting from. And, yet they aren’t going to honor the coupons that are increasing their business?! How stupid is that!!!»” Beware, they again have a coupon in the 2016 Entertainment book. We won’t be back.

I tried this place for the first time on yesterday. Might I say that I loved it! It’s very convenient for me. I went just to try something new & to go study. If you’re the type of person that needs a very quiet place to study this wouldn’t be for you; however, depending on the time of the day it could be ok. I went around 4:00pm on a Monday. The food was amazing. Very hot! It was so much I could barely eat it all! I’m guessing they’re known for their beer. I’m not a beer fan. One day when I have more free time & I’m not studying I’ll go for a few drinks! It’s in the middle of nowhere, lol but it’s a pretty cool, chill place. Oh & the staff are great! Very polite!

So let me preface this with I don’t frequent bars and therefore I don’t eat bar food. I moved to this neighborhood and on three separate occasions, was either invited to lunch or dinner at Ship’s Pub. Suffice it to say, I am now a regular. My kids love the burgers and after having sampling theirs, I must say it is quite good. They have a variety of burgers and I know they are in a regional competition for the best burger. I have had three different salad entrees topped with either grilled salmon, grilled shrimp, or grilled chicken. For the money, you cannot make this salad at home. They are excellent, fresh and plentiful. The service is always very good and the place itself is surprising clean — I inspect the bathroom all the time and it is more than fine. Lastly, their wings are Phenomenal. I placed orders for super bowl Sunday, and everyone raved about them. I didn’t want to like this place, and have now found this to be my very own«Cheers». Love it.

I have come here a few times in the past month during a lunch break and have had decent experiences every time. Each time we have gone we have had the same waiter as he must be their weekday lunch time server — he definitely does work and is very friendly — he seems to be the only waiter most times so service can get slow if they are busy. Each time I have gone I have tried a different one of their burgers. The first one I tried was the Monkey Fist — which has been the best of my burger-ventures there. The Monkey Fist has 3 cheeses — American, Swiss and Cheddar, the typical fixings of lettuce, tomato, onion — but here comes the good stuff — sauteed onions, bacon, mushrooms and fried egg to boot — this thing is huge, its juicy, its delicious! I think their burgers typically come with chips — I upgrade to waffle fries cause their waffle fries are crisp and crunchy, and fried to delicious perfection. My 2nd burger outing was the Marinated Balsamic burger — this was alright — it has pesto, tomato and fresh mozz(the fresh mozz is really why I ordered this) — the pesto could have been more flavorful — really the tomato and mozz overpowered it and instead tasted like just a caprese salad-esque burger. My latest venture with them was the Pinta Burger — its a tex-mex style burger with jalapenos and pepper-jack cheese — again could have been a little better. When you tell me tex-mex flavors — I expect big, bold flavors — especially when theirs jalapeño on it — and it was lacking the big and bold, and was a bit more mild. Maybe mine just wasn’t seasoned enough — who knows. Neither the balsamic or the Pinta were bad burgers — they just didn’t live up to the monstrosity that was the Monkey Fist — perhaps I shouldn’t have started with what clearly read as the best burger first! If you order smart here you can easily eat something delicious — but be a bit more selective. Don’t just order a chicken quesadilla cause you don’t want to go out of the box — they have some really interesting options here — like their sesame coriander tuna — beautiful presentation and delicious flavor.

$ 11 Monkey Fist burger. $ 2/$ 3 canned beers – what more can you ask for. Service was a bit slow, but it might have been one of the busier nights. It was a very causal place to dine and drink. Great atmosphere.

We have been here several times and everytime service been really good. The food isn’t anything fancy but tasty. I love their fish and chips. Also the salads are large in size and veggies are always super fresh.

We were on the turnpike and traffic was at a standstill. Got off at exit 6 and started to look for a place to get dinner hoping the traffic jam would be gone when we were done. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Our server recommended the burgers. She said they were fantastic. She was right!!! We each had a burger and salad. The burger was as good and possibly better than most burgers we’ve had. The bun was toasted and crunchy on the inside. The onion rings were delicious. It was a fluke that we ended up here but we will tell everyone we know to stop here if passing thru.

Went a few weeks back with my boyfriend for dinner. Sat outside… inside is very dark, or so it seemed. Patio area was nice, but we were seated next to four obnoxiously loud men drinking, which was kind of irritating, but it is a bar. Basic pub food. Boyfriend and I shared one of the nacho dishes, which was pretty good. Be sure to ask for corn chips for nachos if that’s what you want, the waitress told us it usually comes served on Doritos(ew). I got a buffalo chicken wrap… generic, but not bad. Came with sweet potato fries, unfortunately a pretty small portion. Boyfriend had a burger with fries, no complaints there. We kept having different people come out and take our order, bring our food, our drinks, etc. which seemed kind of strange to me, and it made the service a little slow. Also, we had a groupon which did not include alcoholic drinks. When we got our check with it, they still charged us for sodas(even though they should have counted for the groupon). It was only a few bucks though and wasn’t a big deal, so we didn’t bring it up.

Friendly and efficient staff(great young lady bartender). Had a great lunch(excellent waitress) with four friends last Friday. This is my third visit and have not been disappointed. Suggestions are the seafood chowder, American club, chicken panni to name a few. Nice atmosphere. We needed something like this in the area. Glad to see a couple of low tables(for the older crowd) and maybe at happy hour turn the music down a touch so we can have a conversation. Give this place a try!

We’ve heard some really good things about the new Ship’s Pub so we decided to check it out. They didn’t have a website, so I was unable to peruse the menu before we went to determine exactly what I could eat, being that I must eat gluten free. We sat at the bar and noticed the cook/chef came out so hubby asked if we could speak to him directly. He looked less than thrilled(I’m sure he probably thought we were going to complain about something, but we had just gotten there). Hubby explained I can’t have any gluten and asked what he might suggest I order. His response? «Everything is safe». Uh, no, it’s not… unless you want me to come back here in a few hours and throw up all over you(or worse)! He obviously has NOCLUE what gluten free means, which is scary. I ended up having a Surf & Turf salad which included 3 nice sized chunks of grilled sirloin and 3 large grilled shrimp. Hubby had a cup of chili and the hot wings. Both were excellent and the bartender, Holly, was very nice and helpful. They have $ 2 draft(any beer) specials 11am-7pm Monday through Friday which will definitely bring hubby back. There were a few items on the menu that I could eat, with minor tweaking. Definitely worth a try!
