East End Bistro & Pub

I’ll try to keep this short. .
Came here with a fairly large group to watch the Brown’s game. I hadn’t been there since it was the Shamrock.
Not too crowded, we were mostly drinking, so having a group wasn’t really a big deal.
A couple of my friends decided they wanted food, someone ordered wings and I guess most of them were raw inside. I’m pretty sure that’s more than gross.
Anyway, the staff and crowd were friendly enough.. beer was cheap and cold.. Both great things.
Patio is still super awesome.
Now for the part that really impressed me. I was stupid enough to leave my leather jacket on the back of a chair. Came back 10 minutes later and it was gone. No surprise there, I’m the one that left it… totally wasn’t even mad about it. I left a note on the off chance it would turn up, and guess what? The manager reviewed the tapes, figured out what happened to it, and got it back for me! She also called to apologize for our experience with the food and offered to make it up to us. She didn’t have to do any of that, she went completely above and beyond. That is worth a second visit there in itself!

Last night was my first visit to the East End. When I walked in I was pleasantly surprised by the updated décor, I especially liked the walls and the back patio. I would say they need to update and sand down the picnic tables. We tried their Spicy Garlic Wings, pork taco, and chicken taco. The food came out in a timely fashion considering there was one bartender & one cook! The pork taco was OK however it seemed as though the pork had a bbq flavor and should have accompanied a «bun» and not a taco. The chicken was juicy and was edible also, a pretty good deal and tasty for the price. I do not believe the cheese was «real». The spicy garlic sauce was GOOD!!! Very spicy and tangy! The bartender was unsure of the menu and could not offer up and details on the food. I will say she made a mean Tully Peach tea shot! I will give this place a try again soon as I would like to try their create a burger and steak dinner. Reasonable prices and friendly atmosphere!

What a hidden gem! Stopped in here for a few quick drinks and was bummed we couldn’t stay longer. $ 2 domestics and nice bartenders, as well as complimentary charging stations on the bar for your phone– such a nice surprise!
