Description
Inside, the walls are lined with decorations that yield new details on every visit. The kitchen serves up generously portioned pub fare, including ribs and wings tossed in a signature McGowans sauce. The room shifts from quiet Sunday afternoons to a packed house during sports matches, occasionally accompanied by live music. Throughout the rush, the staff and bouncers maintain a friendly and welcoming flow.
