poor service, bad smell

by trainakr

we arrived, only to be ignored by the bartender completely. she never even looked at us although the place was practically empty. but since the place smelled like a urinal, we just left.

Fall from Grace

by jerseycurl72

I've been a fan of the Emerald Pub burgers since 2001, and have been a fairly regular customer until May 2, 2008. Our last visit was such an utter disappointment, I have vowed never to return.

Despite the fact that the place was empty, save the two patrons at the bar, no one acknowledged our presence and we sat ourselves at a table. After a while the bartender/waitress finally took our order, went to the kitchen to submit it, and never brought our drinks. My friend, (recovering from knee surgery) had to hobble up to the bar to get her beer, as the waitress admittedly had forgotten to open the two Amsel Lights we had ordered. The fries looked and tasted like they were cooked a day ago, and had been micro-waved. (I lifted one and it bent over at a 90 degree angle.)

At no time did the waitress come by to ask how we enjoyed our meal, or if we needed anything, and after we had motioned for two more beers from her, my friend once again felt compelled to limp to the bar to retrieve round #2. I remind the reader that at this point there was a grand total of SEVEN people in the place, and it became apparent that she was more interested in chatting up the two regulars sitting at the end of the bar than doing her job.

The only way to summarize this experience was that we felt more like unwanted party crashers than welcome guests, and I had to convince my friend to let me leave a 10 percent tip.

Unpretentious

This is a good spot.The staff is pretty cool,the patrons are there to have fun and the music is varied.The bartenders will buy back if you are cool with them.Its nothing fancy,but that's probably why it remains cool.

Chill and fun

by antanvon

Came across Emerald Pub by accident, but a great accident it was. We were supposed to have a party next door at Anchor Bar, but they ended up being very unaccommodating, so we moved our party of 50+ people over next door to Emerald Pub. Bartenders and staff were friendly and they played good music - all you really need to start the night off right. Despite lacking air conditioning, we just hung around outside for a breather and everyone had a great night.

• Pros: Friendly, casual, fun

My no. 1 Pub!!!

by marilynv24

When I first came to this place, all I can say is I fell in love. The drinks are great and the food is damn good. All I have to say is No. 1. The Owner is awesome. The bar staff are just to great for words. I can come here at anytime and I know what to expect. The atmosphere is friendly as hell. That is why I decided to have my Birthday get together at Emerald's.

Again, all I gotta say is awesome.
