👍👍 This is an amazing Pub with great music performance, everybody here is so friendly and authentic. We decided to change our schedule to be able to re-visit tomorrow. Special thanks to Casey (I hope I got that right, if not, my apologies) for her performance, I loved the song.

😠 Amazing setting and beautiful hotel but my advice is go to Biddie O’Barnes as food is superior and price performance better, we felt let down by the arrogance of the kitchen, over 20 years we have had family members get married in Harvey’s, family stay in the hotel and I usually recommend this over...
