nickie jasiOctober 27, 20141st time here & the service sucked.. Beer & food were good though of course😋👍
Super great sandwiches. But very low light level. Bring a flashlight.
If you aren't sure which beer to try, have the Crimson Dynamo! One of the best I have had!
Pete DeJongJuly 4, 2013The menu says the Devil Dancer sandwich is hot. I doubted. I should have believed.- Kevin VJuly 10, 2016Great sandwiches! Somewhat disappointed by the limited selection of beers. And beware for the slow services. Don't go there in the rush. Never got full attention of a waiter.
If you like Fab Collab (fall 2014) then try the Chronic.
Make sure when you visit you buy a jar of dirty bastard mustard. Wow really good.
- I love the Red's Rye, but the Devil Dancer triple IPA is awesome.
all day ipa and the endurance ale are founder's best kept secrets.
Free shows on Thursday nights starting at about 9pm. Try the dirty bastard or the Darth Vader ( imperial & dirty bastard). It's the best.

"Never had a bad sandwich here. All of the meats and bread are tasty. Try the bread bowl soup or the crab dip. Beer cheese dip is tasty as well. Try a sandwich with the corned beef or chicken."

"A new location for New Holland with a lot of space. There's a patio in the back and an upstairs with beer-inspired artwork. Pub special beer options that were new to us! Also, Dragon's Milk: S'mores!"
