Busy pub at lunchtime with good service and tasty food. The soup and sandwich which was beef and bean and roast beef and bacon was a great deal at $16 or $17 and was delicious.

Always nice to come here after a long day with free pool and entertainment it’s nice, I have only been 2 times the first time I went the service was a little slow even when it wasn’t too busy, but I can’t complain as mentioned before the free pool makes up for it. The second time I went I was asked to give extra pieces of ID then required I found that a little strange but no big deal, the service that night was not the best it was very busy granted but it took over 10 minutes for refills even when I asked 2 times. But again the free pools makes up for it.

Awesome evening with the boys. Wing night is a must. You can tell right away that this is one of those staple neighborhood get-together spots. Friendly atmosphere, delicious wings (I recommend the Caribbean Jerk), good beer. Not that expensive for what you're getting. Will definitely recommend👍

Ordered a ceaser for lunch ..DELICIOUS! ordered a basket of fries , and the fries were too salty so i sent them back for a remake. No problem! Service was impeccable..big thank you to ASHLEY. If i had any criticism it would be the food is a lil on the high side for pricing ..

Excellent pub just if the beaten path. Went to Whiski Jack's age mountain biking with friends at the Smith craft trails. We shared some nachos - got extra cheeseas per the servers recommendation. They were awesome! The server was fabulous. Our drinks were never empty during happy hour. Nice patio! Highly recommend!

I got the impression many nearby residents visit the pub. I had a burger and fries and a beer. All were tasty. Their prices were in line with similar bars. The game was on their many TVs. It also looked like a couple of guys were setting up to play a gig, hopefully after the game. Service was good and there was plenty of parking. If you are looking for fine dining, choose another place. If you are wanting to party, this would be a good place to go.

It was tough to get service. Yes we had a few people there for a birthday but not enough to wait 20-30 mins to get our drinks. Other then us..it was not busy and had plenty of staff to cover. I ordered the BLTC (Bacon..Lettuce..Tomato..Cheese)...except I got just Bacon..Lettuce and Cheese.....No tomato. How do you forget the Tomato on a BLT..its in the title?!?!? Also asked for Sour Dough bread...I got white. Its been a few times now weve had not the greatest service. May be awhile till we decide to go back

We moved here almost a year ago and have heard many great things about Whiski-Jacks. We live right around the corner and decided we would try it tonight. We ordered take-out. The ribs were fall off the bone and delicious. My husband loved his yam fries and dip

On December 2nd I went out to Whiski Jacks to dance with a date. It seemed like a nice place and the staff were friendly. Shortly after we sat at our table for 2 a couple sat beside us at another table for 2 not far apart from ours but for all I know they could have been sitting at our table previously as they had no drinks and the lady had no purse or coat. The couple looked like addicts who were possibly homeless as the lady was emaciated and extremely wrinkled for her age. I didnt want to embarrass them by moving to another table. They sat beside us for a few hours. A few days later I was not only starting to come down with covid, I was beginning to be itchy for some reason. A few days more I was super sick and covered in scabies sores, the female addict had given me scabies which was much worse than covid, but I had both. I phoned the manager Chris at Whiski Jacks to tell him as many would be too embarrassed to and he said he cleans the rugs every 2 weeks and there is nothing else he can do. I suggested a cover charge that included your first drink. He then went back to saying there is nothing he can do; in other words there is nothing he will do. I am never going back.

I live within walking distance to this pub, so we go pretty frequently. Wednesdays are super busy as its wing night. My wings, for some reason, are hit or miss. My husband always enjoys his. (I usually get teriyaki). Sometimes, on Wednesdays, the wings seem to have been rushed through and have very little sauce. Every other day, they are great. Its obvious the kitchen is just trying to keep up, but consistency in quality would be nice. Aside from this, the place is great. All of the staff are attentive and almost all are very friendly. Sometimes, they have bands playing. Its never too loud to have a conversation.

#make_bars_safe_for_women After back and forth with bbb and this company it has been stated that I was barred for dating. The only thing I did differently in the last several months is allow men and women to kiss and touch me. Now I am permanently barred for a non violent or even rising my voice. But making friends and doing what people do at a public bar. Date. See bbb complaints. You will see that I did nothing to deserve this but talk to people and let them into my personal space and dance with me.

My beef is the when patrons drink to much and lash out at others in the bar for a considerable time byand nothing is done by staff to rectify the situation. Really the guy went a fifteen minute tangent at full volume disrupting the entire bar and not one staff member shut him down. Makes wonder if this is the kind of place I should be frequenting?????
