To be honest, I've never thought highly of English food until I went to the Old Toad. I suppose I just never had it in the right context, or in the right atmosphere. The Old Toad nails it on the...

We had a terrible meal and the service was even worse. I would only go there to drink beer. Service was horrible as well.

Definitely my favorite pub in Rochester. It's well-lit and you can actually carry on a conversation because the music isn't mind-numbingly loud. The best part - they have good beer. This isn't the...

One of the places I stop by first when I'm in Rochester for a weekend. The servers can sometimes pass you by when it's busy. But this place is hopping, the food is good and so is the beer. Worth the...

Going to the Old Toad is just like hanging out in the pubs in Europe. They import 90% of their staff from England and they are all easy on the eyes. We have not tried the food yet, but the menu looks...

This is a true British pub with authentic pub stools and all, beer selection is great, and the food is traditional pub fare and has improved much over the years. A good place to hang out with friends.
