My 18 yr old daughter and I were looking for all you can eat crab legs on HHI. We saw that Main Street cafe & pub had this on the menu every night for $29.95 We each ordered this entree which came with a salad and freshly steamed snow crab legs. They were awesome. When I finished my first helping... More

Upon entering this establishment we were greeted by managing partner, Faith Roppelt. When we asked for a table for 11 she quickly informed us in a rather rude manner that we need to make reservations for a group that large and she suggested we come back some other day. She did not even check for a table. Are you kidding... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I certainly do not recall this incident and genuinely apologize if I came off rude in anyway. We do strongly suggest reservations and especially for large parties but I would never intentionally turn someone away with out offering other options. I can not imagine myself acting the way you have... More

Good food, good service and reasonable prices. The "all you can eat crablegs" are consistantly great. We sit outside on the deck with our Labradoodle and enjoy the setting. It's one of his favorite restaurants too!

This "locals" restaurant has been found. It's in a beautiful area, Main Street, and the service and food is always first rate. It's a must do on your agenda for either lunch or dinner.

This used to be a year around locals spot, but now can be heavily populated by larger groups of tourists. The food is still good; the service though drops to average on their "packed" nights and the "just locals" ambiance of the place is gone.
