Been there before and maybe I look for the positives rather than the negatives but my experiences at Friar Tucks have always been wonderful. From the staff, to the bartenders, to the waiters, to the food, to the music, its always been awesome. The only negative I can think of is my wallet is a little lighter but well worth it.
