The PSL (Pumpkin Stout Latte) is phenomenal. It’s an Imperial Stout. I didn’t taste any strong pumpkin notes. It has the smooth and sweet finish of a good milk stout. I highly recommend it, if you enjoy malted beers. The Service was excellent. We had the Black & Bleu Bergers . Since COVID the menu has trimmed down, and is more bar fare, but all good. Always a great experience and will be doing back

Have been there during the week and food and beer was better. We don’t think we got the correct beer because it didn’t taste like what we were used to. The appetizers were good. No need to smoke hummus. Feel as if my experience a year ago was better and not sure why. Mac n cheese tasted like butter & milk, and brisket was sliced tough with no flavor. Food flavor was not how I had remembered either.

I love this place. Got some the Rachel and onion rings for carryout today. Their Rachel is not turkey but pastrami, and its house made and smoked, very tasty. The onion rings are perfect. And I brought some of the brews home, can’twait to try the crowler of pineapple hopslayer in a bit. The patio looks like an awesome place to dine also. I was alone today so brought it home.

Good food and great ambience. Our server Kenneth was pleasant and accommodating. He gave us the specials. We ordered Salad and Reuben sandwich. Very tasty marble rye, generous corned beef and coleslaw is how I like it, on the sweet side. Our food looks good and forget to take pictures.

We love the Onion Pub. Wonderful brewed beer and great menu! The atmosphere is calming, and the people are great. There is a beautiful patio in the back of the restaurant overlooking a small lake/pond. Decor is very fun. One of our favorite places to eat and kid friendly.

The food and drinks were great. I had southwest salad and my husband had an onion cheeseburger. Service was great as well. Price are reasonable, and we will be definitely back.

Excellent food and a great atmosphere! We were very impressed by our meals. We got fish and chips and pulled pork. Both were delicious. The live music was great and there is a beautiful patio with lake views. Definitely needed some more staff, since they seemed spread pretty thin. Took a while to get service and the bill. But overall a very positive meal!

The Western burger was delicious and our server was friendly and attentive. We sat in the bar but it wasn’t too noisy or overcrowded. Definitely a go to when we want a good burger.
