Explore Our ConceptsFor years, McNellie's Group has been rooted in the idea that restaurants are more than places to eat. They're gathering places for celebrations, everyday meals, and the moments in between, powered by teams who care deeply about the guest experience.
Tradition rooted in community
Our story began with one pub and a simple idea, good food and better company bring people together. That idea turned into a group of restaurants that celebrate local culture, hard work, and genuine connection.
We’ve been building community since 2004, we’ve accomplished a lot, and yea, we’re proud of a few things.
McNellie's Group has been recognized by some of the most respected voices in food, hospitality, and business. From national culinary nominations to regional 'best of' lists, these accolades reflect the standards our team holds itself to every single day. We're proud of the recognition but we're even prouder of the guests who keep choosing us.
