Good pub with a nice burger and fries. Service was a bit lacking, though nice. - Big Easy: Half pound standard burger ordered medium and got it medium. The burger was juicy and cooked the way I like it. The rest of the burger was fairly plain and not much else to write home about. The cheese was not melted much. I saw it had mustard and no ketchup, so I freaked and asked them for ketchup instead of mustard which they did. I thought the burger was a little overpriced compared to the many of the other places I have visited in the area. If it were that good, I wouldn’t have a problem paying the price, but it was too plain to charge $16 and only get chips. - Fries: I upgraded to the fries. They were again fairly plain, but done right. They are medium sized steak fries with a good fluffy center and medium softer outer skin. They stayed warm until the end and were cooked just right. - Crispy Brussels Sprouts: WOAH! Powerful taste. There are several well balanced flavors that were nonetheless screaming for attention on this dish. I do like brussel sprouts and these were great, but a bit too much. That said, the parmesan was added as large shavings rather than grated which gave a great texture. The bacon is always a nice touch. The sherry gastrique was very sweet and powerful. There was a sour flavor to it as well that hits you at first, but settles down as you become acquainted with the initial shock. I liked it and it is worth trying. You’ll have to be the judge, though. It is a unique flavor. Not on the menu, but they have gluten free buns. Also, their Barnyard Burger was listed apart from the other burgers and I missed it. Their menu needs a bit of organization. They also have Shepherd’s Pie. Maybe I’ll come back and try that some time. They also list specials on their website. They are mostly drinks, though. I do see occasional specials for food listed on their Facebook page. - Service: We were greeted at the door immediately and seated at a booth at our request. However, that is where it seemed to go downhill. We looked over our menu and were ready to order and waited a good while (it was NOT that busy). Finally, I ended up sticking my head into the isle and being served by someone who wouldn’t have served us otherwise. Waters were finally brought (though never refilled) and our orders were taken. When served, it did come in a timely fashion, though. Paying also took a while. We had the credit card on the table for a good 5 minutes or more waiting to pay. BEWARE: The tip by default is 25% when paying by credit card. I didn’t notice until it was too late, especially since we were trying to get out as soon as possible since it was taking too long. I would NOT have tipped that much for our experience. Lesson learned. - Atmosphere: The booths have hard wooden backs, but cushioned seats (a bit worn, but not bad at all). The wood is warn down I think on purpose. It gives it that old-world feel they boast of. I felt like we were in Ireland or Scotland. There is a decent amount of old-world decor and the main of the inside is dark wood. It was overall comfortable in spite of the wooden backs. The music playing in the background was almost imperceptible. I could not hear it unless I really listened for it. Talking to my wife was not an issue and I appreciated that. The bathrooms were a tad small, but were okay. My wife mentioned the women’s room was a bit unclean, but I didn’t think the men’s room was bad. To call this place a “gastropub” (according to their Google Maps description) I think is a bit of a stretch. I think it is more of a pub with a slightly greater emphasis on the food than a pub. Maybe somewhere in the middle. I am guessing they have been around for almost 14 years (November 5, 2010 according to their Facebook page). Visited on a Friday night 7-8 PM. It was not terribly busy for a Friday and there were plenty of staff on hand from what I saw. Even a couple of the cooks came out for a few minutes.

Added our name to a waitlist on a Saturday - we were 20th in line, but it seemed to move quickly. We ordered Smash Burgers and Build Your Own Breakfast. Burgers were great and the breakfast was cooked to order, they have a handful of gluten free and vegetarian options too. Everyone was pleased with the food and we got a big chocolate chip cookie to go from the bakery. The service was friendly, but absent. When we were seated, we waited 15 min before anyone greeted us or took our drink orders. I assumed they had forgotten about our table and that feeling continued throughout the meal. Overall we had a nice brunch, seems like a good restaurant for families, friends, and couples.

Food was great from beginning to end. We have a daughter with gluten allergies and there were lots of options for her. We had the fish and chips (walleye!! ❤️), BBQ pork sandwich, and Apple/pecan/blue cheese salad. Saw lots of other things we want to try next time.

Arcane and their food truck catered our wedding, and it was fantastic! Everyone loved having pizza (who doesn't??) instead of silly banquet food! It was served as a buffet and pizzas were always coming out of the truck to replace empty pans on the table. It didn't seem like anyone was waiting. They were also able to accommodate vegan and gluten free. Honestly, my only regret is that I didn't try all the pizza types, and that's on me! They have such unique pizza combinations and they just do it SO well. Also the truck itself makes the wedding space look even cooler with its big bulb sign and cool design. Pizza was my dream for the wedding and Arcane made it everything I hoped for!

This place has great food for a good price. Lunch and dinner specials too! If you want gluten free, ask for the white sauce and white rice.
