I have been to pub 56 dozens of times and have always had a great experience. Today that was NOT the case. I have been in the restaurant industry for over a decade and understand that mistakes can happen and how bad reviews of people complaining over the little thing can effect business. With that being said this is not one of those little things. I ordered the cali club and a beer wile my mother ordered the seared ahi tuna wontonts and a pepsi. The tuna that was supposed to come out rare was delivered by the manager well done. Mistakes happen so we politely sent it back. When it was delivered again by the manager it came out correctly BUT when we tasted it, it was so disgusting I gaged. THE FISH WAS SPOILED. I called the manager back over and explained the situation and told him to taste it and explained he was going to get people sick. He took the plate away unapologetically and never apologized he just took it off the bill. I was then told by the server they just lost their head cook but that is no excuse to serve spoiled food. #scary

Great to finally have a good, safe, and clean local place! What a great change! The place that was here before this I think was called Jimmys. It had started out as a decent little Sports Bar you could bring your family to on a Sunday afternoon to watch football. But it quickly degraded literally all the way around...drunks, fights, leaky roof, etc. Even the staff would stand around doing shots and talking profanity. Jimmys quickly got the reputation as a place to avoid. The Pub 56 owners came in and completely rehabbed the place. It is gorgeous inside. Excellent varied and tasty menu! Friendly staff! Nice food and drink specials throughout the week. I am now completely comfortable coming into this establishment anytime with my young children without worry of them being exposed to the trashy element that defined it before. Good job Pub 56! Ill do my best to help keep you all in business here!

Truly, I have never had a bad meal or a bad experience at this fantastic restaurant. I really mean that. The food is always amazing. I go here every two weeks for lunch and dinnner. Craft beer prices excellent (on special nights). Salmon dinner: tender, flavorful,cooked to perfection. Beef brisket, seriously one of the best briskets ever, even compared to Chicago brisket restaurants. Burgers, juicy, flavorful,delic! Wings phenomenal. Everything, really fantastic..thank you chef. :) last, staff is great, friendly and attentive. Last, the manager is a super nice guy, and works hard. 5 stars! Excellent!

First impression small simple place until you walk inside to an explosive in-your-face intense atmosphere which is alive for those sport fans but elegant for those who are looking to take their loved ones on the perfect romantic date for a reasonable cost might I add!. Now lets get down to the important part the FOOD. It took some time to get to my table but well worth the wait you can tell that the chef put his heart and soul into my plate and perhaps a little something else special. I dont give them out that often but Pub 56 5-stars all the way look forward to my next experience. Thank you love Abbie.

The first time my wife and I went here, we ordered the beer battered fish and chips. After eating it, we didnt feel too good and called to voice our concerns. They were apologetic and gracious by offering us a $25.00 credit towards our next order with them. We ordered the chicken avocado sandwich with sweet potato fries. The food was delicious! Weve been back multiple time since then and swear every time that were going to order something else, but cant tear ourselves away from that dish. Should the owner read this, well try to order something different next time! Great food, location and service!

Our server was okay, not the best. But the food was really good, my 4 year old loved his pizza. I got the crispy chipotle chicken with buffalo sauce and his dad got a cheese burger, both of which were great. The only thing was that my fries were cold, but the server got busy and I didnt bother complaining. The tables near the bar were well lit, while the family seating was very dark. Overall I would recommend coming here. Especially before they start getting busy later at night.

First time here. Read reviews. Excited to try. The wings were excellent! My husband had the wings as an appetizer. Wings were great! I had the Chips and Queso. I was expecting some spice... nope. Very simple cheese sauce. For our Entrée, Husband had the Breakfast Burger said it was average at best. I had the California Burger, I was expecting great, I got ok. The overall atmosphere of the restaurant was great. The staff was good. We will try again if ever in this area.

First of all, 5 star review doesnt mean this is a 5-star restaurant. It means they are well above average in their genre. So, for me, Pub 56 was great. 2 visits on two separate occasions and both times, the staff was friendly and helpful, the food good and the draft beer selection robust. They offer military discounts and usually they have enough tables and staff so there is no waiting even when they are busy. Highly recommend their Reuben sandwich!

The poutine was pretty good. But the rest of my food was wrong . And when I called to ask about it the person i talked to didnt seem very interested in fixing it. I ordered off of their website menu then was told the menu on their own website was wrong. So I didnt get what I ordered and didnt end up eating what I ordered because it was wrong and they had no desire to fix it.

This local bar has a good beer selection and a good selection of American Fare on the menu. The menu consists of mostly burger, sandwiches, chicken (wings and tenders/strips) and they do a good job on these items. I am partial to their breakfast burger and chicken strips (the honey mustard is good). This bar-restaurant is a welcome addition to the this area.

Fairly large craft beer list with mostly common found breweries but a few harder to find brews pop up every now and then. The food is typical pub fare with nothing to go out of your way to have. A fairly nice setup with a large open area and TVs totally surrounding you so there are no bad seats if you are there to watch a game.

This is our 3rd time going and I have to say this is one of our new local favorites! All of the staff is very friendly and we have not had one bad thing on the menu! Great specials throughout the week, great beers and the atmosphere is very nice. Highly recommend going and trying one of their burgers, nachos or fish and chips!

The food was absolutely delicious! Their fries reminded me of street fair food, and were fantastic! We had both the sweet potato waffle fries and the curly fries. The only downside was that they looked understaffed. Our waitress was kind and polite, but we were stuck waiting for our check long after we had finished eating.

I can not say enough good things about this place. The beer selection is amazing. The food is great. The specials are to die for. I been to many places all over the USA and this place is under rated. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming. Every one is attentive to all their guest. Cant speak enough good about this place.
