Now, there’s a lot of gristle that you end up having to spit out while eating. I'm really disappointed that they've compromised on quality. The presence of gristle and cartilage makes the $12.95 price point hard to justify.

When a customer asks for a burger cooked medium rare, it shouldn’t come out well done for another year in a row. Similarly, when someone orders chicken fingers, they shouldn’t be overcooked to the point of being inedible. It’s disappointing when staff members recognize returning customers and attempt to make things right, only for the kitchen to miss the mark yet again. The message is clear: we don’t feel valued as customers. Don’t worry, Chieftains; as a small town pub, you likely wouldn’t survive elsewhere, and you won’t be getting our hard-earned money again. So much for giving you a second chance. Goodbye.

The atmosphere is really charming, and there’s convenient off-street parking. I will definitely be coming back during my visit.

However, we were seated in separate booths, making it impossible to communicate with one another. The service was very slow. I ordered a glass of wine that was only filled a quarter of the way (definitely not what I expected for a tasting). I also ordered a burger without the bun and fries. When I requested a side salad, I was informed it would be an extra charge. This will be my first and last visit!

We were seated quickly, and the service was both fast and friendly. The perfect pour of Guinness set the stage for my delicious meal of corned beef and cabbage, while my spouse enjoyed the Irish stew. And I can't forget to mention the scones—they were fantastic too! As we wrapped up our meal, Jane stopped by to check on us and even took a moment to show us around the beautiful restaurant. We couldn't be more satisfied with our experience and look forward to returning soon!
