    We had eaten dinner at The Publican many times, but this was our first time having brunch. We shared sweet and savory dishes including the waffle, the shrimp and grits, and chicken schnitzel. All were delicious! A side of PBQ breakfast sausage was tasty, too. I highly recommend checking out this spot for brunch.

    Fast, efficient service between the waiter and food runners. Good brew selection. The porters were thin and watered down; I was looking for more full body. Settled on a tasty scotch ale. The brussel sprouts were the best I’ve had with an amazing miso butter. The cheese selection was delectable, but the bite size square pieces were annoying to use with the crostini; I would have preferred thin slices to pair with the perfectly toasted crostini. The short rib entree was amazing and would definitely reorder on my next visit.
