Neighborhood gem

Several years ago, I decided that my future in the restaurant business would most likely not remain in the realm of fine dining and gourmands, but would rather lean towards the style of restaurant that I found myself frequenting most often - places that provided consistency and quality at a price that was fair for the quality of the food and experience. Public House plays to the comforts of good, solid food, while applying the principles of premium food products to a more casual setting. You will find all the fish is delivered from Foley’s in Boston, high quality steaks and a rotating selection of vegetable sides that are true to the region and season. You’ll also find a really good hamburger and fish sandwich, along with fun snacks and small plates that pair well with cocktails, beer and wine.
Welcome,
Nathan Lindley

We come here often as the food is always delicious and service is excellent. The Cesar salad and wedge salad were wonderful ! We ordered pork tenderloin and I had the special, fried flounder. The flounder was really good but in my opinion, had too many “sauces” on it. The flavor of the fish was drowned out by the flavors of the sauces. We highly recommend Public House and it is our go-to restaurant for lunch and dinner.
