Brickhouse Tavern

Chose the healthier meal - veggie sub and salad. I loved their cheese and the bread was crispy... so good. My only complain was the service was super slow. We waited over half an hour after we ordered even though it wasn't so busy at lunch today.

Horrible experience today!

Went in for lunch, and the older lady that was serving was absolutely TERRIBLE! Not only did my sister not receive the dressing for her salad, but once she asked for it, we found out that THEY CHARGED US. Seriously? So you have to pay extra if you want your salad dressed? That is ridiculous.

The server constantly messed up, and we kept having to repeat ourselves to her over and over and over again.

The food, as always, was good though.

I'll think twice about going in for lunch--and having a salad here.

I like this place.  Tucked into a little corner of Port Warwick, it is cozy and feels local.  I prefer going for happy hour drinks after work as it is just far enough from the Oyster Point Industrial Park to make you feel like you've gotten away from the office w/out being a pain in the butt to get to during rush hour.  It's a good place to stop by, shoot the breeze and take in a little Sportscenter over a pint.  I get the impression that it becomes a college hangout later at night, long after I've changed out of my work clothes and gone to bed but I'm not expecting to do any field research on that anytime soon.

Anyway, the food is good, but I won't say great.  The pizza can tend to be on the greasy side and I'm pretty much guaranteed heartburn from the sauce they use if I go for more than a slice.  Sandwiches, wings and such are on par with what you'd expect for a typical pizza joint with no real stand-outs.  Nonetheless, I'm a regular as it generally represents a good value with service that is consistently better than average.  It doesn't hurt that they have decent beers on tap too.
