One cannot go wrong at the Quiet Man. You may have to wait 20 minutes to get a table but it is always well worth the wait. If you have to wait for a table, you can wet your whistle at the bar with quality draft beer selections or great cocktails.

Old style Irish pub with typical pub type dinners. Super friendly and patient. The restaurant was busy by their standards but we only had to wait 5 minutes for our table. Busy by their standards, I mean for example, I had to wait for drinks because there was no glasses left and I had to wait for the dishwasher. Things could have gone quicker if they streamlined their process a little more. Just my observation.

Atmosphere dark, service staff super nice and very family orientated and the food is just ok. Well mine anyway.

I had: steak fries, beer battered fried pineapple & Shepard's pie. Steak fries were good but I could taste the oil, pineapple rings I always like but the batter was falling off that I was eating ring and batter separately. The Shepard's pie was presented nicely but a little too soupy for me and lacked flavor. I had to throw salt, pepper and ketchup on it. It was ok. FYI, I am against using salt.

Bottom line on the pie, is I have had a lot and for the most part all are different. I have had better and I have had worse. You can't please everyone.

All in all it was a good evening, everyone was relaxed and I still left happy though there is room for improvement.

We have been going to the quiet man for many years and have never had a bad meal. This is a Irish pub style restaurant with tables both in the bar area and a separate restaurant room. This is a small restaurant so you may have a wait on weekends. They offer a scallop potatoe side dish that is delicious. Also their fish and chips are especially tasty

Moving our son to Dover to attend The Kubert School. Found this on Trip Advisor and loved it! Highly recommend the Smoked Salmon And Smoked Trout Appetizer! Two of us had the crab cake and another had fish & chips! All delightful and we will back!
