| j12601 (214), Poughkeepsie, New York | | August 4, 2011 When I found out before I went here that it was a chain, I was a bit hesitant. However (and especially for a chain), it’s quite good. Especially for being in an area that is a vacation area where one would not expect to find a lot of craft beer. They had a number of beers on from the local Cape Cod Beer Company, as well as stuff like Allagash Black, Dale’s Pale, and some other nice surprises. Came on a weekday in the middle of the day, which for most bars is generally a slower time, and it certainly was slow, which I prefer. Service was quick and friendly, food was good as well. Since my mom lives about ten minutes away, I’ll be back. | | chriso (258), London, England | | July 15, 2010 Visited in April 2010. Right on the main street in Hyannis but there was no problem finding a parking spot almost directly outside. The focus is, understandably, on British beers (which are obviously of no interest to me) but there were a few US craft brews too. You probably won’t find a bigger selection elsewhere in the immediate area. Nothing particularly rare but they did have some Dogfish Heads and Harpoon Leviathan. More importantly they had two of the local Cape Cod beers on tap which was what I was really there for. The relatively low score for selection reflects the preponderance of commonplace (for me at least) imports but non-Brits may well find the range more to their liking. Soup and a sandwich was fine. Pleasant pubby atmosphere although we were there mid afternoon so it was fairly quiet. Seemed like a place where I would have been happy to while away an evening in an area short of top class beer destinations but we were just passing through. The owner of the chain happened to be in the house and we had a good old chinwag. Which was nice. Worth a stop. | dykhuis7 (3), New York does not count - explanation | | December 31, 2009 Very nice restaurant/pub; went for dinner with the family while at the Cape. I was pretty impressed by the fact that for an American company (despite the British name) there were only 5 of the 27 taps that were either AB or M/C. A decent variety amongst the rest. The food was decent, and my waiter continued to make the runs to the bar with a smile to bring me samples of whatever I wanted to try. Definitely a place I will look up again anytime I am in one of the 8-or-so towns in MA with one of these pubs. | audrey46227 (1), Indianapolis, Indiana does not count - explanation | | April 2, 2008 Since I moved away, I still crave the jerk chicken sandwich! I’ve always had a great time there, the food is pretty decent, and the selection is good for Cape Cod. | | ClarkVV (90), Allston, Massachusetts | | August 9, 2005 Great place, tons of English beers, nothing really rare but at least some draught Fullers is worth coming for. Very good food, albeit slightly greasy, but I enjoyed the atmosphere. Kind of sad that these "british beer companies" dont have handpumps. Oh well. Good service and very friendly bartenders that gave me free drinks just for showing interest in something aside from Guinness and bass. |
