Maxwell’s American Grill

I know this is old hat to many of you, but I just wanted to share my excitement that Maxwell’s is back! It seems unbelieveable that just seven months ago, Maxwell’s was shut down due to a fire that started on the third floor in a storage area (as reported by Ed here), where there were a few apartments as well. It saddened so many regulars who loved Maxwell’s and even prompted a facebook group to be started “Mourning Maxwell’s Pub – We Must Rebuild!”

I’ve read some great reviews on Maxwell’s re-opening including this one from We Got Served, but I had to go myself to see what the new Maxwell’s was all about. It was lovely to see the sign lit up again and walking through the door was just like old times. Everything looks the same, with the exception of the two new pictures above the bar and the new (and improved) bathrooms.

We ordered pints of Summit and then just sat and relaxed. I’m looking forward to more Thursday nights at Maxwell’s. It is so good to be back!

I see that you got thirsty pre-photo on that Summit.

The funny thing is that I had to mix the remnants of two beers to get enough liquid in the glass. Sometimes you just get thirsty!
