I started with a Mill Street ESB, which I found a little watery.
For supper, I had corned beef sliders and a basket of onion rings. Teena had Bombay Chicken Curry. She quite enjoyed it but thought there could have been more chicken in it. My sliders were OK but could have used more corned beef and sauerkraut. I could tell the onion rings were made from scratch and not frozen and were excellent.
I had an Oktoberfest Marzen next, a very malty lager with lots of flavour.
It was an enjoyable evening and we will be sure to return, especially in the summer when the patio is open.
