    The Penny Lane Pub is a great place! The menu offers great choices and the beer is always ice cold. The service is good and the pricing is fair. A nice place to go for dinner or afternoon lunch.

    Food was great. Drinks were good. Sat upstairs. Noise level got quite loud but we were sitting at a table in the bar, so that was better. Really nice place for dinner before heading to The Kate.

    Food was average as was the service. The noise from the bar was disturbing - hard to have a normal conversation. They need acoustic ceiling tiles to absorb the noise.

    I had the special soup (Sweet Potato And Parsnip Bisque) is was flavorful and rich. Followed by the Medetertian Salad. Love the combination of cool vegies and warm frill polenta. My husband had the coconut shrimp (four big fat ones) and a garden salad-the garden salad is BIG, fresh and crunch. We are regulars here- as you can COUNT on the good service, good food and fair pricing.
