Very displeased. My wife an I ordered our food, her came out correct mine was incorrect. Had to wait another 30 minutes to get a burger replacement. By then my party was done with their food, to which I had to have mine boxed and taken with me. No discount on the ticket for poor service. Won’t be returning there again, and would recommend others, find a different place… NOTWORTHIT

A local favorite. My wife and I enjoy dining here. The food is pub fare and always good. Try the bangers and mash… very good. The booths are comfortable and private.

My husband and I went today for the first time. I have to say it was awful from the get go. I ordered an orange vodka with seltzer water. I received my drink and took a sip. Ugh, it tasted like sweet vanilla cake. Not orange vodka by any means. I told the waitress and she responded by saying its pinnacle whipped. So they knew they didn’t have orange vodka, but instead of walking 50 feet to tell me, they substituted with something else and tried pawning it off on me. Then the food came, if you could call it that. I’ve seen better pig slop. Fish and chips? Please. Greasy, beyond belief and more batter than fish. The fries were undercooked and gross. Do yourself a favor, don’t go here. It sucks!!!

This place is clean with a nice atmosphere and friendly staff. I only had appetizers but they have a decent beer selection.

We have eaten here a few times in the last couple of months. We have always sat at the bar and had drinks and food. The bar service has always been good. We have had several bartenders and they have always been pleasant and attentive. There is a great beer selection with several wines. I have no complaints on the food, always good, nothing mind-blowing, but it is a sports bar, so I’m not expecting gourmet dishes. A good selection on the menu as well As I said it is a sports bar, so lots of TVs, but if you aren’t watching one, it’s still completely possible to have a conversation with people(at least at the bar). The only reason I gave them 3 stars was the prices. The beer and wine prices are on the high side(they do have cheap beer options) and all the menu items are a bit pricey for what you actually get. Two of us had dinner, with an app and a couple drinks, with tip the bill was almost $ 100! I know many places in the area that you can get a similar quality dinner for much cheaper. I’ll probably visit again, but due to the price, much less often and order much less.

Decent service. Very small, low quality Cesar salad for ten bucks

Ummm. Have to agree with general consensus. This place is weak and food weaker… unless you like sports a lot and don’t mind 9 sports channels i. Your face at once. Service was good but bartender seemed overwhelmed once the place got busy. Food not so much. This is the extra crispy cajun rubbed wings. Tasted like a Desert cough of MSG plus Cajun spice. That is all I can say. Kitchen«knock knock» hello get it together please.

Just went there today for the first time for lunch. What a disaster. 5 of us ordered burgers, fish and chips and shepherd’s pie. Here’s a list of the problems with the food: — We ordered the burgers medium rare. They arrived really well-done. It was the driest and least flavorful burger I’ve ever attempted to eat. I didn’t know it was possible to screw-up a burger this badly until I came to McGillicuddy’s. — The bacon on the burger was very cheap bacon and not cooked correctly. It was soggy, sloppy and greasy. — The avocado on both California burgers was disgusting. Definitely not freshly cut. it was 50% blackened. — The side-salad I ordered looked like it had been retrieved from a compost pile. The lettuce was brown, wilted and dry, the cucumber slices looked like they had been sitting around for weeks(completely dry and limp). The waitress agreed it looked awful. I sent it back. — The fries were heavy, burnt, old and extremely greasy. And obviously made from FROZEN potatoes! Really. how hard is it to make fresh french fries? — The fish batter was completely inedible — thick, sloppy and greasy. — The fish was cooked for so long, it didn’t even resemble fish any longer. And absolutely no flavor at all. — The shepherd’s pie was one big sloppy insipid mess. There isn’t a pub in Ireland that would serve anything like that. In addition to the inexcusably yucky food, there were flies all over the place! We spent our entire time swatting flies away from ourselves, our drinks and our food. It was like we were eating in a horse barn. This is a sign of extremely poor hygiene. Why do people decide to open a restaurant and then serve food like this? Why?! I can only speculate that folks must come here for the beer, and then order food after 4 or 5 pints of ale. When you’re sober the food is absolutely inedible. And at $ 12 for a burger, there is just no excuse for this terrible quality. In summary — This could not have been a worse dining experience if they had tried. I have no idea how this place is still in business. Never, ever again.

I ordered the shrimp basket and it was the absolute worst meal I’ve ever had. Shrimp batter was very greasy and mushy on the inside. For the 1st time in my dining life, I was happy to see so few shrimp in a basket.

Been to this restaurant a few times. Excellent selection of Vermont draft beers and nice atmosphere. The food portions seem to be on the small side. We ordered sweet potato fries and the first order was almost burnt and dry. The second order was much better. When we compared our first order(the burnt ones) to the new ones, instead of offering to exchange them, the waitress just said, «I like them better that way myself». Philly Cheeseteak sandwich was small and just average. Much better places in the area for food but good for a couple beers.

Went here with my SO and mom for lunch! My mom had previous good experiences here and wanted me to come to write a review. First thing first! USB ports and outlets at the table in a easily accessed location, I love this idea! Great for chilling there for a while using your laptop or charging your phone. There was a TV right over the outlet, needless to say we enjoyed rewatching Wreck it Ralph. The food was average, unremarkable, but good enough that McGillicuddy’s didn’t lose any stars. Our waitress was very pleasant and nice. Food was timed perfectly, came at a perfect middle range where we had time to talk before chowing down. If the food was better it would be five stars! I think next time I’ll try their chicken pot pie!

Although the food IS unspectacular, a McGillicuddy’s is a very welcome sight in this spot, which had 2 very crappy restaurants prior. As far as it being a bar, it’s really good. My Guinness was poured perfectly, &HD TVs everywhere are great for watching sports.

Writing for a friend who went last evening. The Rueben sandwich was long, stringy cuts of meat poking out through the end of the bread. The meat was cut incorrectly and she said she was literally afraid if she took too large a bite, she would choke. Her companion had the fries, which were the big planks, and come from far away in frozen bags. The coleslaw was«a little off», though the waiter was polite and professional. My friend doesn’t think she’ll return.

Little expensive, but better food than last restaurant that was here. Hope they keep up the good work.

Have eaten here many times and hope that whomever is in the kitchen could cook the burgers correctly… I don’t understand that every one I have ever had and almost always the grass fed meat that it comes out well done and dry… I order medium rare and expect that. Is any place perfect, no, but I have probably since they opened had 10 burgers and NEVER cooked correctly and very disappointing… As for fries it seems virtually NO restaurants in VT cook their fries to make them CRISPY… I like the staff, other foods items have been very good and the place is clean and close by so I hope they can get a cooking staff that can do better, hope they are hearing it as it seems to be a consistent complaint about over cooked, dry burgers and soggy undercooked fries but that seems to be all over VT.

I live next to Maguillicuddy’s and have eaten here several times. Also have sent family and friends to the restaurant. I have not had a bad meal nor have I heard a bad comment from anyone I recommended the restaurant. It has a nice pub atmosphere and the staff is friendly. There are plenty of TVs as well as a personal TV in each booth. The beer list is good and extensive.

I know people say this often but if I could give this place a negative 5 stars, I absolutely without a doubt would. I can’t remember the last time I was in an establishment like this… Right now, I am actually sitting in a booth at this place wondering why we are still here. To start, we arrived here around 1:25PM on a Sunday. The place looked like it had a few patrons but it did not seem very busy. We asked for a table for 6 and were told the wait would be 15 – 20 minutes. Well 25 minutes later no one had bothered to talk to us and when one of the servers came by he quickly asked if we needed a drink. No. We need a table and after 35 minutes we finally got one. After being seated we waited at least 10 – 15 minutes more for the waitress to come by the table. When she came we ordered both drinks and our food. She brought the drinks over but forgot one– not a big deal she fixed it by immediately bringing the last drink over. At this point we have been at this place for over an hour. We also ordered our food about 30 minutes ago and still nothing is here. I guess the mozzarella stick appetizer made it out but that was not accompanied by anything else. We did not get any of those small plates nor extra napkins so we all had to hold into to the hot mozzarella sticks while our fingers cried out in pain. During this wait, my little brother made an excellent point; «why don’t you write the review now? You have another hour wait here.» Yes. He was right. So I asked the waitress if there was a wifi password. Her answer? «Oh I’m not sure. Let me check.» Correct me if I’m wrong but, doesn’t she work here? Shouldn’t she just know the password? She had to check?! What?! This place is a mess. It’s been an hour and 20 mins and still no meal. I’m anxious to see what comes out… To be continued. I also want to throw in that we overheard another couple near us mention that they waited for their food for an hour and a half! What?! This place isn’t even busy right now– I’m horrified to even think about what happens when it’s a busy night. Reflection: Okay. So we managed to survive this outing but have sworn it off– forever. The food that eventually made its way out to us was nothing to write home about. The four burgers were actually really dry and tasted burnt. I am pretty sure that I could make a better burger at home– on a stove. Also, the one grilled cheese was disgusting. The cheese slices on the inside were not melted– at all. Either they used frozen cheese or they just toasted each slice open face and hoped that once that slices were slapped together that the cheese would magically melt. But seriously, I have never seen someone mess up grilled cheese before… you just melt the cheese, that’s the big secret! This place is literally unbelievable…

Burgers and brew and, yes, salads! This is a great neighborhood pub with tons of good local brews on tap, great burgers, and very good boneless wings. Don’t miss the fried dill pickle chips! They rock. The waitstaff here is also super friendly. Don’t know what the first review of this place is talking about. This place is one of the cleanest pubs I’ve been in. I’ve been here fairly regularly since its opening and have only had positive experiences. When reading a negative review on Unilocal,always look to the number of reviews the writer has created. If it’s a small amount, it’s probably a fake review and an account created just to disparage an establishment(for god knows what reason).

Good tap lineup, but don’t go for the food! I had the On the Green Burger. I woke up at 1am nauseous and sick sick to my stomach. They have only been open a few days and are already serving bad food! What a disappointment! I live within walking distance and was really looking forward to this place opening.
