Reviews for Pub 819 in Hopkins, MN
Full house on a Wednesday evening! They must be doing something right. Brief wait to be seated, as could be expected. Nice... selection of beers on tap and a long list of canned brews. Efficient and knowledgeable staff and crew, who worked together tomake for an enjoyable evening. Varied patrons of age, color and culture, which was pleasant. Located on Main Street in Hopkins.Sports bar type with many screens to watch and lots of comfortable food choices to select from the menu. Generous portions andfair prices. Read more
Well the hostess was phenomenal and she was the one that after seating us and over three minutes of REAL TIME - I timed it- she... brought us water and said our server would be right there, who happened to end up being the bartender who was not thrilled tohave to come out from behind the bar! Our food was okay…. Burger and it’s temperature was wonderful!! The sweet potato frieswere cold and we had to flag someone down to get them reordered. We were not offered dessert and we were given the check in avery perfunctory way!! Will not be back, a shame. Read more
We decided to try the bowls tonight and wow, they did not disappoint. Can't wait to come back to try even more entrees. Our... server was absolutely incredible. He was attentive and very personable. Read more
So let me start off by saying the food and service were 5 stars. As other reviews have mentioned, for bar food it is quite... expensive but if the food and service are excellent, probably worth it. The reason for only 4 stars is because of the 5%addition to the total bill for "Employee Health Benefit". REALLY?? 18.00 and 20.00 for our two burgers and you add another 5% mybill so the owners of the business can feel better about themselves because they are paying health insurance for theiremployees?? At least have the decency to spell this out clearly at the top of your menu. Read more
Nice place but I did not find it to be a special place. Atmosphere was part sports bar and part nice restaurant. Went with two... friends. We had drinks and an appetizer followed by dinner. Their food looked good but unfortunately my fish and chips missedthe mark. The fish was over fried and the batter tasted burnt. The fish inside was delicious but you had to peel the crunchyoutside shell away. I ate one of the two pieces of fish and didn't take the other one with me. I let my waiter know and heissued a polite apology but no offer to fix it or to write off part of the meal. Being Minnesota, I also did not request any ofthat. I probably would go back if someone else suggested it but I would not be the person to take others there. Read more
Year-round dog-friendly heated Pawtio! This place isn't just dog-friendly, they are dog lovers! We were comfortable, even though... it was about 10 degrees outside. The staff brings out a mat and water bowl for each dog. We gobbled down a plate of tater totnachos, then shared a burger and sangria -- highly recommend all of it! Our frenchie loved the oatmeal, peanut butter cookies!! Read more

Delightful spot in downtown Hopkins. Beer list was great. Chicken Drummies were HUGE and the Bourbon Street Pasta had great... flavor. A little awkward walking in because there wasn’t a dedicated host so we waited quite some time for a table, otherwisestaff was superb. Definitely give this place a try. Read more
