    The food was delicious and our server was polite, but the speed of service left a lot to be desired. That being said, we are looking forward to returning in the future

    Really tasty food, excellent service, lively atmosphere - a lot of fun!! The Wee Pie flight was perfect - being able to have some of each (when I could not make up my mind) was a great idea! The fish and chips was also amazing! We are really glad we decided to eat here!

    We enjoyed a delicious roast beef dinner. It’s hard to find Yorkshire pudding these days, so that was a special treat. The brownie dessert was huge and very delicious as well. The service was great!

    Compared to other nearby restaurants it’s reasonably good food at a reasonable price. My partner had salmon, which was great, while there wasn’t much chicken in my pot pie. It tasted good though.

    Weeknight dining, service was excellent on this visit. The fish and chips were good, French dip was average. It was a little loud due to a football game but I would highly recommend the location when you are visiting downtown Seattle.

    We had a large party of 20+ but didn’t want to all sit by each other just wanted to be in the same space, coming kinda late on a Thursday, we called ahead and they said that would be fine. Come that night they changed their mind and wouldn’t event let us come to have a drink at the bar. They kept saying the GM would come talk to us ‘5-10 minutes’ but they kept pushing that back until it was over 30 minutes and still no show. The place was great to us last year, I don’t know know why they were so hesitant to let us just have a place for drinks. I know splitting a bill can be hard. But we kept saying don’t treat us one large party, as long as we can I individually get food/drink that all we want and they just seemed like they didn’t want the effort, when previously they told us it would all be fine

    We were running late to our reservation due to multiple freeway closures for construction. We called to let them know; they were friendly and accommodating changing our reservation to our new projected arrival time. We ordered the Noble house salads, chips (fries), Big Ben Brownie, and the Highland Bread pudding. The salads were perfect (delicious and fresh ingredients), the chips were nice and crispy (just the way we like them), and the deserts were huge! The Brownie should be shared by 4+ unless you are big eater. It was more decadent cake like vs gooey brownie, and very good. The Bread pudding was just right, not too gooey and not too sweet. Both deserts were served with Scottish whip cream which was delicious, and I don’t like whipped cream. Our server was fun, witty, and charming. The atmosphere was about as British Pub like as it could be on America’s West coast. Everything we had was great, but when in Britain we thought all the food was bland so I can see where some reviews might be coming from. We’ll be coming back again try out more menu items like the fish and chips. Give it a try and judge for yourself. 10 stars on this first visit!

    Very good dinner and E & C before a show at the Paramount. I had the Shepard's Pie this time. Very good flavor, mashed potatoes got a little heavy on the top. However, this could be because we ordered the humus appetizer which was also very good. Lots of fresh vegetables to go with the pita.
