on Citysearch Jul 02, 2009Now I realize that everyone has a right to their opinion. I just can't see how some people obtained their opinions. I have been a patron at the WNP for years! I have NEVER had any issues with staff, owner or whatever. To... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009Lucky for me my favorite bar is just two miles away. I would be more than willing to drive much further, but I don't have to. I often go to the Nickel with my sister and we always feel safe here. It's nice to know that the... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009They serve high quality food for bar food, especially local veggies in season! The seating is comfortable and flexible. If you frequent more than twice the staff make an effort to know your name and what you drink.... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009A surprising menu. This is a tavern and one normally doesn't get fresh organic veggies and house smoked meats in a tav. Artery choking, deep fried is available but there are options. The brisket, reuben, and BBQ are... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009Where to begin.. well, let's see, how about "Drew", the rude and short-tempered bartender/manager? This guy clearly has a lot to learn about professional bartending. The food? Well for pub grub, it's passable, but... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009What makes this place unique or special is that it's still the only dedicated pub in this small town. Unfortunately, the current management has ruined the place for those of us that identify with the non-rowdy,... (more)

on Citysearch Jul 01, 2009One the many benefits (or drawbacks) of the Internet is the anonymity it affords its users. Anyone with an axe to grind can easily hijack a website to orchestrate personal attacks on someone they feel slighted by.... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 30, 2009This is the epitome of what a great small town pub should be - bartenders that know your name, enjoy what they do, and provide a great atmosphere to everyone. The food is great too! I appreciate that the barstaff... (more)

on Citysearch Jun 28, 2009I agree with the previous two reviewers. The staff, in particular "Drew", was very rude and disrespectful when I last visited. I was told to leave the establishment following some personal threats and false... (more)

on Judys Book Jun 23, 2009Management (Drew) defends a rude patron by saying "She's usually drunk..." and tells me and my family to return tomorrow. No thanks! (more)
