I eat and drink here regularly. The food is good -- not exceptional, but very good for a neighborhood bar & restaurant. Great bartenders who make extra-strong drinks. Unless of course you dont like very strong drinks, then theyll make them the way you want. Despite how crowded the bar gets on weekend evenings, the bartenders remember you and how you like your drinks to be made. Lots of very large TVs for sports, including 2 extremely large ones (60" or somewhere around there I think) at each end of the bar. They have recently started doing a trivia game every Friday night at 8:30PM which has become extremely popular. 5 rounds, 10 questions per round, usually lasts until 10:30PM or 11:00PM. You can play together with your friends as a team if you like. The winner of each round gets some candy, but youre not playing for the prizes, youre playing because its fun and you might actually learn a thing or two. The overall winner at the end of the 5 rounds gets a bigger prize, usually something along the lines of a case of beer. Everything on the food menu is well-priced, and drinks are also cheap, with plenty of free drinks if you come regularly and tip well. Its not uncommon for over half of the drinks that I order to be on the house. Of course, I usually tip 25% here, but in the long run it saves me money because of all the free drinks, and makes the bartenders happy with more (untaxed) tip money. Highly recommended. Dont come here expecting an amazing culinary experience, come here for good food and drink for not too much money.

I celebrated my graduation at the Firehouse Pub last month. They were able to accommodate 70 family and friends in their banquet hall which was recently redone. It is beautiful! I was able to pick the food for my party off of a menu that had so many options (with the help of Lyn, the owner, who has tons of experience setting up great parties). The food was fantastic!!! The service was impeccable and all staff was extremely caring and helpful! I thought the Firehouse Pub was a great place for my party as it is conveniently located to the parkway from both exit 131 and 135. Ive also had dinner at the bar on many Thursday nights. I also enjoy trivia night on Fridays! The Firehouse Pub is a great place for casual dinner in the restaurant, a few drinks at the bar, or a nice celebration in the banquet hall!

My family and I have been going to the Firehouse for many years. We have also had many banquets there as well. The service is the best there is. We are always made to feel like we are a part of the Firehouse "family" The owners have been nothing but gracious to us and go out of their way to be of help with anything we need. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. Trivia is the best on Friday nights. The bands are always great. Everything about this place is like a real neighborhood restaurant and bar which makes it a great place our family to go to.

This is good, a nice, clean, friendly environment. It is a higher quality, large portion bar-food restaurant. This place was recommended by an involved local health inspection professional. It is a very moderately priced satisfying food stop that left our party of 25-30 people with no regrets about anything, except me, I ordered the stuffed french fries, an evolutionary fault, none my own.

I stumbled on this place while on vacation, went back most days, food was lovely, beer was great, had loads of beers to choose from. The staff were fantastic especially the owners Brenny and Lyn, great for watching sport on the big TVs, they have this hook game on the wall that kept the kids interested for ages. Cant wait to go back again.

I really hate to give the place a glowing review..... I dont want to go there for the best Steak Delmonico around and a beer and find YOU sitting in my favorite seat! Or no seats at the bar. But seriously, Ive been going to the Firehouse for many years. The place is great and really makes an awesome Delmonico.

1st time here: excellent food, great server, prompt service. Nice decor & atmosphere. Met friends for dinner, so the 4 of us caught up while enjoying a delicious meal. It was a Monday so there werent too many people. Definitely will go there again.

My cousin and I were in town and decided to check this place out. Really good value here. The food is excellent. We went with the more Italian fare and were not disappointed. Driving around this town is another thing entirely.

Big bar, good food and efficient service... Cannot rate a 5.... But would give a 4.5. Had a nice steak and they actually cooked it medium rare, as requested.
