Wheeltapper Pub is HORRIBLE
I just ate at the Wheeltapper Pub and waited nearly 30 minutes just to place an order. The waitstaff was incompetent and rude, and the food was horrible. They continually messed up our orders and were MIA the entire time. They never once checked up on us. I'll never eat here again.

Great hidden gem!
Loved this place - it's located in a hotel which I would never normally go into, but there is a great patio at the back, heated which was great tonight as it's still a bit chilly. Appetizers on the bar menu were great, we had hummus and duck quesadillas - delish. According to my companion, the Guinness is great, as it should be for an Irish bar; I had a glass of white wine, nothing special but perfectly OK. The best thing about this place is the outdoor space, a hot spot this summer for sure!

The perfect place to go if you want a relaxed casual atmosphere with great food and scrumptous desserts. The staff was exceptional to take their time to point out some top items on the menu and even tell us about the daily special. Great place to go after work for a drink with some friends and to visit with some out of town guests. The outside patio takes you away - you don't even know you're in a hotel restaurant.
