The Local - West End

Great food. Friendly service. Had artichoke dip and there was something gritty in it that seemed like sand. But, it was VERY tasty. Also had a Reuben - it was delicious. Disturbing to me to see an 18% gratuity auto added with statement that it was to pay staff fair wages??? Staff should be paid fair wages and benefits upfront. What does this even mean? Also, strongly sensed that we needed to tip on top of that. I cannot afford 30% gratuity and it was awkward because I wanted to be sure my server was compensated for her outstanding service.

I love this place, the atmosphere, the service the location. All amazing! Can't wait to come back again, and again!

Staff was really nice. Food was decent. Pretzels and fish and chips were great, pot roast was just alright and very lightly seasoned. Slightly over priced, but maybe that's just everywhere post covid. Came on a Saturday for lunch and wasn't super busy. Nice to come for a drink with friends. They have a row of room-like booths with little glasses doors on the window side of the building which are super cute and nice for a private date. Not sure if the doors can be shut but it does give a sense of coziness and privacy. Parking is easy and free, there's an undergoeund ramp.

Cool space, very similar to their Minneapolis location but with a bit more room. Service and food were both good but nothing espectacular. We got apps and drinks - bacon tots, chicken Shots, pub Pretzels, and cheese curds. Chicken shots were great, Pub Pretzels were nothing special but good, cheese curds and the tots were so so (not bad but needed something to kick it up a notch). Would recommend for a casual happy hour or dinner, nothing was bad just nothing was amazing either.
