Was my favorite place for a long time. I took lots of friends there and went every birthday. My last g’day on June 7th I showed up at 915 when they were to be open late and the host said kitchen was closed early! I dabbed there for dissapointment. I called a few months later ore dinner and got no answer. Nowi manage a restaurant close by and my staff often have issues at rugby. Tonight it was very snowy so lots of places closed early, rugby apperantly closed at 630!!!! What is up? The owners need to review their managers. That place is going downhill

I’ve been here several times. Honestly, I think the food is a bit overpriced and skimpy. It’s an Earls trying to be Metro. That being said, the food isn’t bad, and the drinks are the best bargain in town.

@ Karen – I do love the food there.

@ Anya – Considering the price (and how disappointed I have been at other places that charge twice as much for dinner), I’d seriously give Rugby a good dinner try. I’m surprised you said that it doesn’t have much of a vibe, considering that it seems like a hip place for youngsters

ahh, the Rugby Beach Club – I both love and hate you. I think that although it’s big and drinks are cheap, the food is super-average and the place doesn’t have much of a vibe. I’ll probably keep going there for cheap drinks, but I wouldn’t go for a full dinner.

Rugby is a great place to get together with friends. Did you notice that their drink menu is super cheap? Guinness for around $3 and a slough of martinis for around the same. Dessert: you must try their grilled banana with rum raisin ice cream. Yummy to the nth degree.

I’m sure I have photos somewhere….voila! http://www.flickr.com/photos/horcubee/sets/72157594383657709/detail/

Luc,

There is eye candy there for ALL kinds of audiences

The place is really cool, I’ll see what I can do about “atmosphere” photos.

Every week I plan to sample their Sunday’s sea food menu and I get lazy, but maybe your review will be the trigger.
Maybe add a few “atmosphere” photos, without violating anyone’s privacy, just to get a feeling of the place?
I know this is a food review, but you mentioned “eye candy” and I’ll have to ask you to be more specific, because, you know, you have to cater to all kinds of audiences .
