"I eat at the pub at least a few times a month and we've always enjoyed the great food. So much that we never have room for dessert.

"The pub is a great place for a girlfriends' pre-shopping spree lunch, a guys' beer-and-nachos pit stop, or a couples' meal "date." Portion sizes and food selections are right for sharing from appetizers to entrees.

"I have visited the Freight Yard Pub on many occasions over the past few years and I have never came away without being totally satisfied regardless of what I ordered. From a simple Hamburger basket to the sizzling fajitas, all were great and at a reasonable price where families to may enjoy a meal out.
