Pub 42

We've been back to Pub 42 a few more times now and photos of all three visits are below. While I loved this place on the first visit, we've had mixed experiences since.

We went back for dinner and trivia night and had dinner before the trivia started. Our server seemed ok at first, but he brought out the entirely wrong burger. John had ordered a burger with provolone, and bacon, cooked medium and he got a well done burger with cheddar. It was sent back and he got another burger with cheddar, but it was cooked correctly this time. Still no bacon. Oh well. The manager ended up removing the burger from the tab anyway, so that was nice.

I had the pumpkin ravioli. The portion seemed rather small for the price of $13.95. The cream sauce was very rich and flavorful though. I'm not sure I liked the sausage on top of the ravioli though. It didn't complement the sweetness of the pumpkin very well.

We went back again for trivia a week later and sat at the bar this time, hoping things would go better and they did. No service issues at all. John really liked the char wings as they had a nice smoky flavor.

The filet sliders were good, but the meat was a bit chewy in spots. A decent appetizer though.

The huge side order of fries. Also, they have a great seasoned sour cream that tastes just like the Champps seasoned sour cream.

 

We had one last gift card won at trivia to use up, so we went back one more time. We sat at the bar again and the service was fine. No issues again.

The side of fries. this time the fires were really undercooked and most of them were soggy.

The chicken fingers were really good, with a light crispy breading.

Overall, we had mixed service at Pub 42 and the food seemed to be a bit hit and miss. Some things are better than others on the menu. And if you want good service I would recommend sitting at the bar.

Oh yeah and to top it all off, they have canceled trivia night. So much for that one. Time to look around for a good trivia night again.
