The Ballyhoo Public House

Great food. Good service. Andrea was hardworking. Drinks were good too. My friend terra recommended me the place I am glad that she did. Everything was good. Place was packed up on a tuesday night. They are open till 2am and had happy hour also from 10pm.

I had an amazing dining experience at Ballyhoo Restaurant! Our server, Andrea, went above and beyond to make our meal truly special. She was attentive, friendly, and made excellent recommendations. Her cheerful attitude and top-notch service made the evening unforgettable. Highly recommend asking for Andrea when you visit—she’s fantastic! Can’t wait to come back again!

visited the bar humbug pop-up bar tonight, and had a very disappointing experience. we ordered the ferrero roche old fashioned (bourbon, hazelnut, chocolate, fino sherry, angostura, orange oil, and ferrero roche are listed as ingredients in the cocktail) and another drink. but we were served a shockingly pale old fashioned instead. we asked the waitress why the drink looked so pale (unlike the photos seen online) to which she explained that they were out of chocolate bitters and that it was basically still the same drink. aren’t bitters a pretty important part of an old fashioned? then, she proceeded to ask, “you’ve had an old fashioned before, right?” yes, i’ve had an old fashioned before. which is why this looks like nothing i’ve ever had! she mostly ignored us the rest of the night, checking on her other tables but walking past ours without so much a glance. she did stop by one time though, to ask if we had any last order. well, we were a party of four that only ordered two drinks, so fine, whatever. two in our group left after we finished our drinks and the other two of us waited to get the check. she walked past multiple times without glancing at our table. we eventually caught her attention and got the check, but this was annoying as well. overall, frustrating experience and i unfortunately won’t be back. such a pity since i was so excited to check out bar humbug after all i had seen online.

They have a really decent craft/local beer selection and seems like a decent deal for happy hour. Bar seating tends to fill up during HH but not sure if HH applies to other seating. Recently tried the $15 pizza and beer special. Beer is limited to the parallel lager but you can choose any pizza. Somehow the pizza that comes out looking different than in the pics on their app/website. Was expecting a fresh out of the 900 degree oven “Neapolitan style” pizza but what my friend called “is it microwaved?” came out instead. Tastes ok but I wouldn’t go here for the pizzas based on my experience.

Had an awesome night at ballyhoo! Anna and Chris were absolutely fantastic—super attentive, friendly, and made sure our drinks were always on point. The service was fast, and they had great recommendations. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to!
