The Chum restaurant received mixed reviews from customers. While some enjoyed the food and atmosphere, others were disappointed with the service and lack of menu options. The overall experience seemed to be hit or miss, with some diners noting chaotic service and underwhelming dishes. However, the historic building and dog-friendly atmosphere were praised by some customers. Overall, it seems that The Chum may need to work on consistency and addressing customer concerns in order to improve their reputation.
