Fireside Pub and Grill

Do NOT eat here if you like your health. We were served RAW chicken wings. YES RAW. You can see from the photo I posted on the storefront. Apparently the bartender said this wasn't the first time today it happened. Ummm what??? If I get sick I will be FedEx'ing you my vomit and diarrhea. I felt bad for the bartender who had to deal with the mishaps - totally not her fault but it does rub me the wrong way about the entire establishment as a whole. What else is being fucked up? What else is dirty? What else poses a threat to my health and safety? Ew. Brown bag it to these day trip resort places. The only way to do it. EW!

We just returned from a Friday night dinner- husband, myself and two teenagers, at the Fireside Pub. What a lovely experience. The wait staff were so pleasant and eager to please. Seamless service; good, hot, just out of the kitchen pub food; nice jazz band; refills on drinks that just kept coming and a beautiful space to boot.

We've had so many negative experiences at new places we were hesitant, but we will go back. What a great experience to leave a restaurant feeling relaxed and full of yummy food.

I don't know anyone affiliated with this establishment, but it is clear when you enter that you are a valued guest and that they will do all they can to assure a great dining experience. Bravo. Great job!

We've eaten there once, and will not eat there again.

We went there on Saturday to watch the Ravens-Steelers playoff game after skiing.  We sat down about 10 minutes before kickoff and found a table with a good view of the television.  The television had not yet been set to the channel that the game was to be on yet, so we asked our waiter if they intended to turn it on.  He said that they "probably" would, but maybe not, because they didn't want people hanging around too long and taking up tables.  We were shocked and put off at his response.  I honestly thought he was joking at first, until he elaborated.  We seriously considered getting up and leaving, but the game was about to start, so we knew if we left and had to find somewhere else to eat, we would have missed some of it.

They turned on the game, as we expected.  If they hadn't, there probably would have been a riot seeing as half of the people in the place were either wearing Ravens or Steelers colors.

For the entire meal, we were rushed by our waiter - aggressively asking us if we were ready to order dinner immediately after taking our appetizer order, taking plates off of the table and only asking "oh, were you done with this" as he was walking away, etc.  He also brought the check before we asked for it, and when we all still had full drinks.

It should be worth noting that we were not just sitting there and not ordering.  We ordered multiple rounds of appetizers, several rounds of drinks, dinner, and even coffee.

I would consider this to be poor service anywhere, but especially for a place that represents itself as a "Pub".  Pubs are places where people go to hang out for a while and watch sporting events.  If Fireside wants to be a fast food restaurant, they should represent themselves as one.
