Im a long time customer who has frequented this bar/restaurant since its opening. Chuck the proprietor, is a master at hiring the right kitchen and bar staff. He prides himself in having an eclectic menu, which seems to change each day. His business is so much more than just another local bar, and I would highly recommend a visit to anyone who enjoys a well mixed cocktail, beer, or glass of wine, along with a delicious meal.
Worst food. Never try the appetizer platter. The pirogies where a joke. Small and over cooked and tasteless. The wings are served dry with sauce on the side. Again they were dry and over cooked. The Cheeseburger was thick and didn’t fit the roll. This was at lunchtime with no crowd. Highly disappointed.
Food looked disgusting and didn’t taste good. They forgot part of our order. The batter from the fried pickles was super thin and peeled off by itself. The mozzarella sticks were bland. The potato skins were also tasteless. The wings looked great but had no flavor. And I’m not sure what blue cheese or ranch they put with it, but it looks gross and greasy. Very disappointed spending hard earned money on this garbage.
Ive been coming here with my boyfriend since Goat closed down.😭 While this place isnt exactly the same, its still a great little pub and restaurant with something for everybody. Their mac n cheese is amazing. Im a fan of their Cuban sandwich, but I havent yet tried something that I havent liked. Also, their mule is great. Its strong, so be aware of that when you order their drinks lol.
Always a good spot! Their housemade chips are fantastic and the crab fries are hard to stop eating. Coming here with a group of friends is always a wise choice. But you can easily make friends with the other happy patrons at the bar. I like how youre actually able to hear people when you talk :)
If I had written this a year ago, I would have said the food and service were great. Having been there twice in the last 2 months I can say the complete opposite is true. Last night we waited an hour for our entrees and mine arrived cold. Asking to have it reheated it was returned microwaved and completely dried out. We won’t be returning anytime soon.
I can’t help but five slowdown a bad review after tonight.I brought my sister and her fiancé out of town, prepping them that service is slow, tonight was down right embarrassing!I love the food at slowdown; so does my husband. There is no reason why our entrees should have taken an hour to come out for when they were ordered.Our waitress never introduced herself, and she made it thoroughly clear she did not care about us at all. She didn’t check on us once, and we had to be sure we got our drink order (which was never offered to be refilled) our appetizer order, as well as our meal order all in one shot.We didn’t even have the four sets of cutlery at our table until we asked a busboy to get it for us.Our food finally comes, my sister’s tuna tacos are cold, my brother in laws meal comes out with chips instead of fries, and I’m offered chicken Parmesan the sandwich instead of the entree like I asked for.“Are you sure you don’t want the sandwich?” Yes, I’m sure about what I ordered.The waitress has the nerve to charge me for the “pasta side” that should have been my chicken Parmesan entree, and my brother in laws chips that should have been fries.If I knew who was management I would LOVE to complain to! This is aside from the NORMAL freakishly slow service!
Me and the wifes date night spot. Never had a bad meal and Ive had dozens here. Burgers are top notch. Nachos are wonderful.But the slowdown isnt just bar food. Tonight Im having a lemon pepper ribeye with mushroom risotto.Dozen beers on tap rotation. Bottle take out. And its primarily old people so you have cool crowds that thin out early (the weekend band plays at like 7)My only complaint is the live bands are way too loud. Its a small place but they bring big speakers.
I had to give one star. If there were 0 stars to give, I would. After finding a cockroach crawling across my lunch plate, I complained to the bartender. As the owner sat four seats away from me and did nothing about this situation, I chose to leave. He chose to ignore me like I was there to rob the place. I highly recommend not eating at this establishment. At least he didnt stop me from not paying for my lunch.
Decent food, poorly packed for take-out. Steamed veggies doused with the sauce from the entre. Was surprised that the Cajun mushrooms were marinated in A1. Good tasting food in general, hopefully the takeout packaging improves, paid over 80 bucks so they should take better care not to mix sauces when packaging.
Hostess never greeted us. The waitress was great and we got our food quick.My husband d had the blackened salmon pain I and thought it was good and would rate it a 4 out of 5. Calamari a 4. I had a ain chicken sandwich with lettuce and tomato and I found the chicken was tough, I didnt finish it. My son had chicken tenders with fries and he was happy. Great beer selection. Live music was so so,but a litte loud. I would consider coming back, but eould choose something else on the menu.
One of the worst dining experiences of my life! will never return and will tell others the same. Ordered the boneless wings and they were absolutely disgusting, one bite in and I could see pink in the center of the chicken. The manager, Jeanne was EXTREMELY RUDE when i asked her to take the undercooked chicken off the check. First she asked me to show it to her to PROVE it was undercooked then LITERALLY said deal with it and continued to argue that it looked fine. The whole time I felt I was inconveniencing her by simply asking something to be removed from the check. I give two stars because my husbands sandwich was good.
Nope. Took a really long time to get the boom boom shrimp and nachos. It was not busy at all either. The shrimp was very overcooked and rubbery. I dont know what the sauce ended up to be but not what we ordered. We literally counted 12 little chunks of chicken that was supposed to be the chicken nachos. The cheese on the nachos was sort of like velveeta from a can or canister or something from a concession stand. Waited a long time for fish and shrimp tacos. Shrimp was again overcooked and dry not to mention scarce. There were actually 2 shrimp cut in half on one taco. The fish was just yucky. First and last time there. Sorry and we are in now way fussy people.
This place wasnt bad. Went on a Sunday afternoon, there were a bunch of people at the bar, only one other table in the restaurant side was occupied. We were seated right away. The crab, spinach artichoke dip was tasty. Loved the sweet potato fries with caramel sauce. I ordered a shrimp po boy panini. The ciabatta roll it came on was way too much so I ended up pulling it apart to eat. Next time Ill ask for different bread because otherwise it was yummy. My mom got crab cake sliders that were very good, lots of crab. My sister got a chicken parmesan sandwich that she enjoyed. The homemade chips werent great, I wont bother with them again. Will bring my boyfriend back to try the dinner specials next time!
We have been here a couple of times food okay, but then ML ordered a hambuger with an egg on top, egg cooked hard not running and didnt receive the fried onoins, so not to make a fuss she asked for another fried egg over easy, when it came it was broke she asked for the manager, well what can I say no custmer satisfaction here he took it off the bill which he should have she didnt even eat it & she was so hungry but the experience was so upset she left before she blew her top. I paid the reminder of the bill. WE WILL NEVER GO BACK.

2022-06-07Food was okay for the most part. Service was good. Highlights were my aunt said the onion soup was really good and the fries were great. Low points... the peppercorn sauce was not good (luckily we requested it on the side!) Fried pickles had barely a dusting of coating on them and since they used thick cut deli pickles (which had the potential to be amazing) they turned mushy super fast. I had a brisket sandwich and the flavor was not there. It was way over seasoned and the pickled onions tasted off to the point that I only took a few bites because it overpowered the taste of the meat. If you want good brisket go to the next shopping center and hit up the BBQ place there!

2021-10-19Everything was just fried and thrown in a container. The coating on the mozzarella wedges is just plain breadcrumbs. No seasoning or anything. Marinera has no flavor. Boneless wings are processed ground chicken with sauce squirted on them. Pierogies are the only thing palatable. Literally feel as though I wasted my money. The quality has gone down the last couple times I ordered here so I think this was the last time.

2022-03-20The Sunday afternoon/evening performer is almost comically bad, actually pretty excruciating. Avoid the tacos, incredibly dry. Great service, Linda is great, and beer selection, though!

2019-05-05Shameful food. Nachos were movie theater chips soaked in cheese whiz... no where on the menu did it mention that they dont have real cheese. Cut up romaine for lettuce. Absolutely worst nachos Ive ever had, especially bar nachos, these were down right pathetic.Crab fries with crab meat? Barely any fries had to dig through cheese wiz which was also soaking the fries, and almost no crab meat totally awful product. Menu was VERY misleading.Barely ate anything and wait staff were unwilling to discount the over priced bill. Bad Service, awful food, never going back.

2021-12-12This is a Cool, laid back pub located in the Heart of Aston Pa in the same shopping center as the Post Office. The food was great, it didnt cost an arm and a leg to eat there either. They have a nice selection of both draft and bottled beer and run specials every day at lunch and dinner.

2022-02-06Taco of choice is my go to here. Shrimp is first choice. Definitely worth stopping in great wine selection for a corner bar. Scallops are very good also

2019-12-25$5 minis only because theyre in the shop same shopping center as LaSpada’s. Good mini, it was really half of a cheesesteak. Big bar with lots of TVs. The bartender was not polite. Good little cheesesteak.
