“ Mikaela, our server was wonderful. She gave us great service and great 1st experience. Our meals were delicious. I got the double chicken breast dinner with roasted potatoes and grilled zucchini and absolutely loved it. The chicken was juicy and the zucchini was grilled perfectly. We will be back for more. (Good meal for gluten restrictions) ”
“ Rivals is a great go to after work for a drink and quick bite. I also order food to go and today’s order was **chef’s kiss**. Food is delicious with exceptional presentation! They really know how to pack to-go food so it’s just as good at home as if there. Everyone there, from waitresses, bar staff, and kitchen are awesome! ”
“ Wings were perfect. Beers were cold - one of the best beer selections in the area. We split and shared a LAND burger and a chicken sandwich - it was all so fresh and tender. Will definitely be back. We sat at the bar but there's plenty of seating, and a patio. Hostess and bartender were welcoming and attentive. ”
“ Better than your regular bar (unless this is your regular bar) and the tall beer is massive ”

“ Amazing food, specifically the fries and chicken tenders. The service was kind and frequent, and the outdoor atmosphere is amazing. There are train tracks very close but trains are very infrequent (unfortunately for me, I love trains). Overall 9/10 (4.5 stars) ”
“ Enjoyed visiting this pub and would definitely eat here regularly if we lived here! The food was good, menu had what we hoped to find, and service was excellent by Bella! We sat at a table in the bar area. They offered a 10% discount as well since we were staying in a hotel. ”
