Pub 517 - Andover Township

Food is good and place is friendly. Great to stop on moto trip. Great steak and seafood specials

Foods at basic prices. vegetables are preserved, baked potato was sufficiently prepared, T-bones steak tasty, but not really tender. friendly waiting staff and fast service. kid kind. only cash. the it area is very loud, bad acoustic. and it is not in hackettstown, near alamuchy only north of RT80. I would recommend it to a friend and I will go back.

We wanted to eat after a rolling thunder fund header for our veterans! I was told I was not welcome when I wear my colors (rolling thunder vest.) I told them it's not a mc, it's rolling thunder and I'm a veterinarian. I wanted to go. I hope no vet, current service personal or blue star family members gives this restaurant any business. I'm not taking my colors for anyone!

The atmosphere is nice and it gives off a hometown mom and Pop vibe. the service was good and I enjoyed my time; however I ordered the Lobster, Bake Potato and I was extremely disappointed; it was a plain old bake potato with a small lobster. I will say a second visit I had the Chicken Nacos and they ever good above average but not amazing. I won't stop just to visit 517 however if you're in the area and looking for drinks and some food (not amazing but change of pallet) it could be worth the visit. cash only; they do have an ATM so not really an inconvenience in my opinion.

I was there with five others, including my mother to celebrate mother 's day over dinner. Sadly we did not have a good dining experience. In fact, it was the worst I 've experienced. We ordered some drinks and appetizers. The drinks took a while. Our appetizers did not come until much later. One of the appetizers was wrong. We were offered bread but there wasn 't enough brought for everyone at the table and we later came to discover, we were being charged for it. After that, we waited two hours until our food finally came out. Two people never got their food so while four of us ate because we were famished at that point, the other two people with us continued to wait until they finally left. The one lady with us had plans to meet up with her mother and could not wait any longer. My time was inconvenienced as well, as I had also made plans to meet up with my son, which I did not get to do because by the time we left the restaurant, it was too late. My mother 's steak was cooked wrong and my boyfriend didn 't even want to ask the waitress for condiments because he didn 't want to have to wait any further. Not one time were we offered compensation for the inconvenience. In total, over $300 was spent. No sympathy from the waitress or offers to make anything worth all of it. Now I will tell you that I am a waitres for a fine dining restaurant in Morris county. I do understand and sympathize with the hardships that come with the job. I understand things can get crazy while working to do your best, be speedy, and remember everything.. trust me I do! BUT .. to not so much as offer to make things right??? Come on. I 'd be embarrassed as a waitress or any member of staff at a restaurant to leave a well paying customer unhappy and on mother 's day no less. I did not say anything though I very much wanted to, only because I didn 't want my mother to see how upset I was. I wanted to keep the peace. Another waitress ended up taking over our table towards the end and she actually informed us that it wasn 't a crazy busy night.. she considered it 'nothing ' compared to the previous night. I 'm very confused as to what happened. Did the waitress forget to put our order in until much later? If so, I 'd have appreciated a heads up. I 'd have been tremendously more understanding had she given us that heads up but to not say anything or to offer us any sort of compensation for any of it is a major fail as a waitress and to the establishment. I was hoping the situation could be made better the next day when I called to speak to the manager. I also sent an email informing her that I 'm always happy to leave fantastic, detailed reviews for those restaurants that provide good service and I 'm don 't mind spending money on good food and service and that hopefully she could help make this situation better but she never reached back out to me by phone or email. Not acceptable. I would not suggest dining here ever. Horrible all around service.
