My friends and I were looking for a place nearby to eat. The Local Eatery & Pub had pretty good reviews and the kitchen was still open at around 10 pm on a Friday, which was when we came in. The place was dead. I would think that since its a pub as well, there would be more than a few people - at least having a drink. But I guess its not a bad thing - not like we were looking for a noisy crowd anyway. For food, I had the cuban sandwich, which was probably the weirdest Cuban Ive had. It had entire pickle spears in it. I felt like I was eating a pickle sandwich. The fries were not good. You could tell they were refried again and again though not sure if this is different if you come during the day, Drinks are expensive for no reason. We were only visiting near this town for the weekend, so we wont be back. But even if I live in the area, I dont think Id be back anyway.

I really want to like this place. Ive been twice and both times were not great. The second time was downright awful. We waited 20 minutes to get a drink after seated and over an hour to get entrees, which were not good. At all. Veggie burger was slop on a bun. Kids mac and cheese was elbow pasta drowning in milky sauce. Even the salad was bad and didnt include all of the ingredients. What a disappointment after waiting that long (and watching other patrons walk out). To be fair, they were training a cook and the owner did apologize and take some food off our bill because of the issues. But still. It was bad. Sorry guys, I want to like it! The space is great and the menu looks great. But the follow-through is just bad.

Went with my husband prior to another engagement so we were on a time crunch. Happy Hour is from 3 to 6pm so we scored wings for 5 bucks a platter and they were amazing, piping hot and tasty. Cole slaw on the side was homemade and delicious. Enjoyed our food and were done with plenty of time to spare. Bartender was super friendly and attentive, we will definitely go back when we have time to sample the craft beers.

Love this place so far! I came here for drinks and appetizers with a couple friends. I had to try some of the specialty cocktails which were all delicious and came out looking so pretty! We ordered the potatoes, sliders, and pretzel sticks...everything tasted great! No complaints here. :-) Service was great (thanks Cesar) and the staff were all super friendly as well. Ill definitely be coming back!

I was blown away at how my one drink cost more than my food!? If you like overpriced drinks and paying extra for ice, no joke, $2.50 for a few cubes in my drink, then this place is perfect for you. However, despite the fact the food was relatively good, I dont plan to return. Im just wondering, is their ice imported glacier ice from Alaska?

Visited a number of times and have yet to be disappointed. Cocktails are made properly, good selection of beers including a few local ones, burgers are very reasonably sized and are some of the best Ive had at a restaurant. Very happy with everything so far and plan on visiting for happy hour at least once a week

I returned from Minnesota recently and my buddy asked if I wanted to go "local." I figured he meant somewhere local. Was pleasantly surprised to discover it was a proper noun! With a variety of incredible beers, delicious food options and exceptional customer service, Local Eatery & Pub is such an enjoyable time.

Delectable and creative menu, everything was delicious from the appetizer to the entree and dessert. Each bite is an experience that makes you think how can everything taste this good? Awesome drink selection and the staff caters to you. Pay this place a visit you will not be disappointed!

The food was good but dont think we will go back. The Empanada was very good and the corn salad was excellent the drinks were just okay and the burger was okay my husband said that the shrimp dish he got was very good.

Best mushroom burger Ive ever had, and thats coming from a meat-eater. So savory, Id be sorely tempted to get their regular burger next time... Likely opt for this one again :)
