Hamlin Pub Chesterfield

Meh.  Chicken tenders were really good, but the fries... Bleughghghgh!  Looked beautiful but they tasted like rotten potatoes!  I had 1 fry that was ok.  How can you dick up fries?  Come on!  

Also Bloody Mary - I ordered one made with Stoli - it was bland, not great.  No hot sauce and just 2 olives.  Being from WI where all places load up a Bloody Mary with pickles, celery, celery seed, not sauce, olives etc (they are LOADED with stuff + a beer chaser) I felt jipped.  There is a picture of a Bloody Mary in the menu with all the fixins (less beer shot, which they don't seem to do here in MI) so I asked.  You have to request that one special.  So I ordered it - price was about the same, but it SUCKED!  I can't stand pickle juice in a Bloody Mary.  Just put a pickle IN it!  This pickle juice thing seems to be another MI thang.  And the hot sauce was in the outside if the rim of the glass.  Dumb.  It's not a margarita people - it's a Bloody Mary - that shit goes IN the drink.

Fail.

I love the French onion soup!   Very hearty & great flavor!

This place has constantly good food. I am obsessed with their chicken dumpling stew. It is out of this world delicious and my go to whenever I'm feeling under the weather.

The atmosphere is great for a casual night out with friends.
