Ordered the pretzels and "beer cheese," not sure what they call cheese--like goop. Peel and eat shrimp averaged $1 per medium shrimp. They arrived in a bowl of luke warm liquid, submerged in the liquid, accompanied by a fork. Never saw peel and eat shrimp...that needed to be lifted from a liquid bath of spicy, otherwise flavorless watery whatever. Had to ask for a plate to put the shells in and extra napkins as I peeled the very wet shrimp. Potato and leek soup had potatoes and looked like it had been thickened with instant mashed potato flakes. Never saw a leek, let alone tasted one. Didn't have to worry about any drips as it was thicker than wall paper paste. Companion had the tater tot bowl with brisket; had asked if it was enough for a meal and was told "yes." . Brisket was bacon bits--otherwise no meat. Served barely warm, but wait meant she was too hungry to send it back. This restaurant is now owned by the Red Letter Hospitality group so we expected the same quality of food, which we have enjoyed within the past year, at the "The Cork 1794" in Erie as well as the "Skunk and Goat Tavern" in North East. There is no comparison. The building is nice. We were in the back and the noise meant it was difficult to talk. Upon entering at 6:15 without reservations on a Monday night, we were told we had a 45 minute wait, which fortunately was only 10 minutes. Staff friendly and attentive to filling water glasses, but this couldn't make up for the lack of food quality.More

We met friends at “Molly Brannigans”, and we felt welcomed in an atmosphere that was light, open and happy. The tables were nice. We ordered some very nice cocktails, they were very tasty. The only annoying part was that the TVs were blasting a football...game, and although not much tolerable during the game, became totally intolerable during commercials (do I need to mention how often commercials happen during a football match?). So it was a nice experience. I might go back. Hopefully the TVs then will be softer.More

A friend and I met for Happy Hour. Wanting to avoid the crowds, we met at 4:30. We were seated and given menus and then the waiting began. Waited for the server, waited too long for beverages (3 people at the bar, 2 other tables)...waited to order food and then waited for refills of drinks. At one point we had to ask the hostess to find our server. Considering how UNcrowded it was, the service was unacceptable. Other negative was the music: too loud and heavy rock! The bar was beautifully (seriously) decked out for Christmas and the music was ridiculously loud and inappropriate. We had planned to eat dinner but left after one app. Disappointed and frustrated.More
