I tried these spots at dinner on Saturday. They are all in the center of town on 1st Street.
The Sullivan Public House - I had a terrible Bangers & Mash for $17. Maybe $3 worth of ingredients. Two mushy (most likely Cumberland) sausages and a monkey fist portion of piped (too garlic-y) potatoes. The inappropriately added garilc bread slice may have been the least bad thing. The rest of the tiny menu cost more and was as cliche. Shepards Pie etc. Open for seven years. A testament to how indiscriminate Joe and Joanna Six pack are. I think if there is one din8ng category I could wipe from human existence, it would be Irish Pub fare. Not only is it lacking in taste of finesse, it is always a terrible value. I don't even like the hardwood decor. Always a buzzkill. Open for dinner only. Late lunch on Sunday. Avoid.
Capitol Room - Just a bar. Trying to be higher end. DJ. They said tapas in December.
Slam Pizza - I think this spot has been at least four differently named places over the years doing exactly the same dull nonsense. They said the have been here for five years. Seems overstated. Same terrible pizza cooked in a mini steel oven. Cheesesteaks and other sandwiches. I had a slice for $3. Little sauce and no crust. Underbaked.
