My fiancé and myself went to 36 Handles Pub last night to celebrate our anniversary. The live music was great! The atmosphere was very relaxing and wasn't too loud. We shared an appetizer of Garlic Fries, which was amazing. Had fresh garlic and the fries you could tell that it was fresh. Had an excellent selection of beer as well and the menu had suggestions on what to pair with food/beer. For the main course I had a Portobello wrap. Once again the flavors were amazing and the ingredients were fresh. The blue cheese dressing for my salad was a little strong though. My fiancé had their haddock fish and chips. He was really impressed with the flavors and how fresh the ingredients were. Now to the cons of the place. Our hostess to start off with were in these little booty shorts and was on the phone the whole time while she was seating us. In my opinion they encourage families to eat here and I feel like the shorts were a bit inappropriate. Our waitress was nice but clearly ignored our table and the table next next to next to us. We had had to ask to get napkins and utensils. We probably would have bought more beer and stand longer if she actually paid attention to our drinks. My fiancé asked to sample sample a beer he never tried and he ordered it before dinner. She didn't come back with his beer until 15 minutes later and and it was was a full size beer. He luckily ended up liking liking it but our waitress didn't even bother to ask. Granted we went on a Saturday night, but we were early enough that in my opinion wasn't busy. I would like to give this place a second chance, but we they seriously need better customer service skills.
