There was no mistaking the warm welcome in Tiffany's voice as the Retired Guys sat down at the bar in the newly opened and remodeled Square Mile Public House in Mountville. The "Welcome, I'm glad you're here", was genuine and made us feel we were in the perfect spot for a Tuesday afternoon beer. Twelve beers on tap with a range from light to craft and a cooler full of great selections will allow anyone to find something to match their taste.
Speaking of taste, the menu looks great! If the very attentive wait staff doesn't bring you in, the food should. As usual, Garry and I wanted to try an appetizer and asked Tiffany for some advice. Even though she is not a fan of seafood, admittedly she doesn't eat it at all, Tiffany recommended the Square Mile Crab Pretzel. It did not disappoint! There was plenty for the two of us and it had a very good crab flavor. We can't wait to return and sample more of the menu.
I have tried to mention before how Garry and I have come to appreciate different things about bars on our quest to visit every bar in Lancaster County. At first it was just about drinking beer during the day because we could. Now it is about the social make up of each watering hole. The regulars, the staff, the food and how everything blends together to make for a comfortable respite from whatever you need a break from. Square Mile has only been open for three weeks, but they seem to be building a nice client base. We only met two bartenders directly, Tiffany and Ann, but they are both very personable and know their job. The rest of the staff seemed energetic and eager to please if my observations are correct. And lastly, Kelly the owner. Quick with a smile and right on top of the operation. Kelly and her husband Dan, a part owner in Union Station Grill in Columbia, have put together what seems to be a winning combination in a perfect spot.
Until next time, CHEERS!
