Poor People's Pub

Great service and atmosphere. Good beer on tap. Had the lobster mac and cheese; it was phenomenal and had a good sized helping of lobster. Also tried the pulled pork which was really good. You definitely get your money's worth here!

Dined at PPP after running the Shad Bloom Trail Race.  As you can imagine, after participating in something like this i was quite hungry at this point (and also a little water logged, but that doesn't play into the review).

Sat down at the bar and was immediately struck by the fact the the stools seemed just a bit too short for the bar - like 1-2 inches off.  Didn't bother us much, but it was an odd first impression.  We ordered some beers and perused the menu - classic pub grub, one of those things that, assuming it's done well, is exactly what you want to fill up on.  Ordered an italian pizza, and before i could blink it was sitting in front of me -seriously, i was amazed at the speed as which they got this food out of the kitchen.

The pizza tasted very home made - not quite a "this was made by an italian grandmother" way, but at least a "this was made from scratch and you can taste it".

Great people watching - had a few locals belly up to the bar while we were there, and the conversations about the recent goings-on in New Shoreham elicited a few chuckles.

We only had a couple of apps here so I can't really comment too much on food (fries were very tasty and spinach/artichoke dip hot and tasty), but everything that came out of the kitchen was a heaping, huge serving and looked awesome.  We did enjoy a bunch of drinks and I can't say enough about our bartender, Brenna - who also happens to be one of the owners, along with her husband.  Well-priced beers (sorry for drinking all your PBR, Brenna) and a very nice Sauvignon Blanc I enjoyed.  Everyone in the place seemed relaxed and happy and we had a great time.  If you want super fast and friendly service, the kind where you can sit and talk to your bartender and the people around you for hours, great inexpensive drinks and huge portions of awesome comfort food, come here. :)
