As a larger person, I found the booth seating a bit cramped, so I asked if we could switch to the bar area, where a table with stools was available. They were incredibly accommodating and very friendly about it. Our waitress was delightful, truly a pleasure to interact with, and the young lady at the front desk was equally sweet and welcoming. We ordered the 'fish and chips' and the 'steak tips,' and they were both excellent (see pictures!). Even though the restaurant got busy, the service remained good and friendly. The fish and chips portion was generous and delicious—definitely not greasy. The steak tips were also fantastic, and we paired them with a vegetable medley and mashed potatoes. We heard their ‘prime rib’ sells out by 6 PM and that it's quite popular, so that’s definitely something we want to try next time. Additionally, the restrooms were spotless and very clean. Overall, I have nothing negative to say about this place. I highly recommend it. As for parking, it was convenient with plenty of spaces available.

JJ Grimsby Co skates by on location and lack of options in Melrose. We recently brought a large group in after our function ended and where met with employees much more interested in getting side work accomplished and shutting down despite being open for another 1.5 hours.

The food here is quite good, and the staff are friendly. They have a great variety of drinks to choose from. It’s also a clever name for a Harry Potter-themed bar! There’s ample seating available, along with screens for watching sports. Overall, I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere as a solid 4 out of 5.
