Would not recommend going during karaoke, their DJ was very rude and Disrespectful, and the bouncer has a habit of putting his hands on people for no reason. Very horrible experience being shoved down the stairs when you haven't done anything wrong.

First off they have no idea a their prices and their prices are not what they say online or what staff tells you when you call and staff is rude just in case you wonder what it’s like to spend $40 and what you’re getting this is what it’s like. Oh, and these chicken tenders were like $12

A very " comfortable" atmosphere, whether you're alone or with friends/ family. An outside patio, wheelchair accessible, clean restrooms, well kept up. People of all ages came in. Staff friendly. Pool table. Free popcorn. I had the Red Reuben and homemade chips, sandwich made with a pickled-like red cabbage, very good.

Great local pub. They have daily specials, including a Friday fish fry. Seems Captain & Cokes are a thing on Friday!

Fish was great prawns were awesome. Looked like they had a great selection for a fair price.

There is seating outside as well as on their 2nd floor.

Staff was busy but very friendly.

The staff were incredibly rude and lazy. They were just talking while people waited for them. When I asked for my drink, they said they already gave it to me when they didn't even know what I ordered nor did they have my method of payment. The food was under cooked. When I complained they said there's nothing they can do. I will never go here again. The worst bar in Janesville.

The food and drinks were good and the place had a friendly atmosphere. The music was too loud though and it made it difficult to hear each other in conversation. It's very well kept and clean and the restroom was really clean too. I would have given it 4 stars if the music was at a lower volume.

Purple hair bar tender was rude to everyone in my group. Took our drinks before they were gone. Asked one of our friends why we were there. Friends responds that we are all there as a group. Purple haired bar tender response was "ok"? Rudely. My first and likely last time being here. I understand they were busy but completely unnecessary to be rude all night.

Previously loved this place, we always had good food. This time I ordered online. My husband picked it up. He spent 15 minutes trying to get it because they were arguing with him that there was no order. He finally got it home and I spent $16 on a fish and shrimp combo with no shrimp! When I called them she didn't even care to hear what I had to say. Bad customer service.

Being new in town, I don't know where to go (and don't have anyone to go there with), so it's nice to find a place with people, but not so many to be uncomfortable, friendly staff and a good selection. Two IPAs on tap, cozy atmosphere, and a (Hail Mary) pass from the house; I'll be back.
