The Prodigal Public House

I've really enjoyed coming to this local pub after work; the ambiance and friendliness of the staff and owner, who regularly mingles with the crowds and helps out in the kitchen when needed. Their chicken pot pie is amazing, and its been sold out the last two times I've asked for it. The second time, they said the cook was out sick and quoted me 30 minutes but 15 minutes later said it was a no-go. I ordered a 3-cheese melt from the menu with a side of "pizza" sauce (not Italian) which was delicious. But they really need to keep up with the demand for pot pies!

This place has such a charming atmosphere! We love bringing people here, the menu is small but everything is done right! I'm not usually a fried pickle fan, but they are a must-try here! I absolutely love The Prodigal Public House!

I experienced my first visit to The Prodigal Public House this afternoon.
If you have not been there it is a quaint, welcoming, smallish in size but big on atmosphere place where you will feel right at home.  Much like a pub you would stumble upon in Ireland or the UK. It's almost like going over to a friend's house for drinks. Except here, your friends are the owners themselves and the other customers that talk amongst themselves like they've known each other forever.
The food was excellent, and selection of scotch & whiskey is vast. Lots of other libations available also. If you are in the Whittier neighborhood (one block from the Black Forest Inn) don't pass up the chance to visit this little gem!

Unassuming old fashioned pub with a great whisky and scotch collection. Staff are friendly, there’s free popcorn, and the menu is solid. Great addition to Eat Street. We tried the sweet potato fries, which were excellent, but the dips were disappointing. If they improve them I would eat those all the time ????

Friendly staff, great atmosphere. Loved the fries, the fish was okay. Would definitely come back to give other items a try.
