Public House

This place is not worth the trip. I went for lunch with a couple of coworkers things were going well. I informed the server that I had a dairy allergy and she snickered. I don't thing a dairy allergy is a funny thing. If that is how Public House represents it self with rude staff I am never going back.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Staff

Went here for lunch and it was bad. Had the chicken fingers which were burnt and asked for blue cheese dressing and received something that resembled blue cheese dressing but tasted like chemicals. Had the burger and it was so dry on a burnt bun with a tomato that still had the core. Even a fast food chain doesn't serve the core in their tomato slices. Read the other reviews and wonder who wrote them because I did not receive that type of experience.

Pros: My meal made me not want to come back

Cons: The food.

Went here for Happy Hour and it was all suits still thinking that they are at their frat house doing shots of Jaegar bombs. I tried to order a drink and the brunette bartender was doing shots of tequila with the customers. I waited forever to get a drink. It was the worst experience I have ever had at a happy hour. Public House should rename their Happy Hour HOPELESS HOUR.

Pros: If you like waiting still the staff is done drinking to get your drink

Cons: Frat House atmosphere

Went to Public House based on the others reviews. Wish I hadn't listened. I ordered the artichoke dip and it was so dry you could spackle the holes in the walls. Then ordered the hamburger and it was so dry and over done that the Bruins could have used it as a hockey puck. Learned my lesson I will never go back.

Pros: None

Cons: Everything else

I wandered into Public House last Friday and ended up having a 3 hour lunch at the bar. My girlfriends and I got this awesome lunch special which included a huge cheeseburger (that was to die for!) and a pint of beer for $10! The bartender was really sweet and made us feel like we were at our neighborhood bar, although there were classy business lunches going on right behind us. We ended up sticking around and until happy hour & had a blast. I highly recommend this spot if you’re in midtown or just feel like having a drink.

Went to Public House for the first time this last friday, great friendly staff, convenient location to meet a few friends after work and fabulous food! I tried the spinach dip and filet slidders, both were to die for! Great selection of wines also.

Pros: Food, staff, Huge bar, lots of people but still easy to get a drink

What a great place to be...especially on Friday and Saturday nights. From the hostesses, to the coatcheck, wait/bar staff and far beyond...everyone is great...good service is hard to come by these days but Public House offers you only the best!!! The atmosphere is always fun and easy-going. The food is great as well...tasty (spinach dip to die for) and all done in a timely manner. 5 stars!!!!!!!

Pros: Music, service, food, ambiance

i went to public house for the first time last week for dinner and shared the tucson salad and fliet mingion sliders with a friend and they were both delicious. the server was very friendly and informative and the food came out very quickly. the atmosphere was great and it was overall a great experience
