What Joel likes about Union Street Public House:
Good meal just a little off the beaten path of King St. in Old Town. Nice old style wood room. The food was good I had the prime rib special which was a good size portion and wound up being a pretty good size after cutting away all the fat, and she had the whole trout which she enjoyed. We were allowed to substitute the sides for both the dishes (which were originally both potato side dishes) to brussels sprouts and... View all feedback. What Gemvil doesn't like about Union Street Public House:
The waiter seemed distracted while chatting with other staff members. When we mentioned that the starter didn't taste good, he simply said it happens sometimes and didn’t offer to replace it. I ordered the steak, which was very good, but I requested that the garlic butter sauce be served on the side, and it arrived completely drenched in oily butter, ruining the mashed potatoes. Additionally, I received the wrong sid... View all feedback.

Love Union Street, but on this night it was very busy and patience was required. I will return!

The restaurant in question seems to be a mixed bag according to the various reviews. Some customers had positive experiences, praising the tasty food, reasonable prices, attentive service, and overall comfortable atmosphere. However, others were less impressed, noting issues like unavailable menus, substandard food quality, and high prices for lackluster dishes. While some guests enjoyed the bar for drinks and appetizers, others found the food to be mediocre at best. The restaurant seems to excel in some areas, like accommodating large parties and offering a variety of menu options, but may fall short in terms of food quality and value for money. Overall, it appears to be a decent spot for casual visits, particularly for drinks, but may not be the best choice for a full dining experience.
