In Short
Televisions, neon bar signs and wooden wainscoting provide the basic bar look without a lot of frills. The space is split into two rooms, one of which has pool tables. Smoking is freely indulged, while the drafts pour to the sounds of "Space Truckin." Waitstaff in T-shirts and jeans work to keep up with the large crowd gathered to unwind. Basic pub fare includes burgers, fries, chef's salad, buffalo wings and nachos. The best bet on the menu by far is the burgers, which are large, juicy and served every way imaginable.

I have been going to harrisons for a long time. It is a great place to hang out with my friends. They have just about everything you can think of, from pool tables, ntn poker(one of my favorite's) and might I add free to play(again one of my favorite's), Bago boards, and the list goes on. Harrison's also has the best food in town. I highly recommend this bar and as for the smoke as everyone has mentioned, ITS A BAR! Yes it would be nice to get rid of the smoke but what can you do. Dont miss out.

This place is ALWAYS filled with smoke so don't even think about eating there with the family. The staff is inattentive at best. I've tolerated this place for a while because my friends like it there, but no more. I'm tired of waiting too long for a drink, too long for food, being treated porrly by staff and management AND THE OWNERS!!! This is not a professionally run establishment. The employees drink at the bar after their shift (which is probably why no one else can get any service). The bathroom is CONSTANTLY out of order. This place needs a major renovation, starting with the staff. The food is OK but the burgers are usually undercooked. There are so many other places that are so much better. Don't waste your time on this crappy place. I know I won't anymore!

ME AND 5 OF MY FRIENDS WENT HUNG OUT AT HARRISONS THIS PAST SATURDAY AFTERNOON TO WATCH THE GAME. OUR WAITRESS WAS ALRIGHT, SHE ONLY FORGOT ABOUT US A BUNCH OF TIMES AND IT WASNT THAT BUSY. AROUND 4 OR 5 IT STARTED GETTING A LOT BUSIER AND AFTER NOT SEEING OUR WAITRESS FOR ABOUT 25 MINUTES, WE FINALLY DO SEE HER AND SHE'S WALKING OUT THE DOOR! FORTUNATELY A NEW WAITRESS STARTED WAITING ON US AND SHE HAD A MUCH BETTER PERSONALITY AND WAS MUCH BETTER LOOKING, BUT SHE HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOIN ON, IT GOT BUSY AS HELL AND IT SEEMED LIKE THEY WERE UNDERSTAFFED, WE WERE GETTING READY TO LEAVE AND WERE WAITING TO GET OUR CHECK WHEN ANTOTHER WAITRESS (I THINK IT WAS THE MANAGER) CAME AND CHECKED ON US TO SEE IF WE WANTED ANOTHER ROUND. SHE ASKED US IF EVERYTHING WAS OKAY AND ACTUALLY SAT DOWN AND TALKED TO US, APLOGIZED SINCERELY ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES AND TOOK A ROUND OF DRINKS OFF OF OUR CHECK. MY FRIENDS WERE INTOWN VISITING FROM CHARLOTTE AND WE TOLD HER WE WERE HEADING DOWN TOWN AND SHE SUGGESTED A FEW PLACES AND INTRODUCED US TO THE LOCAL CAB DRIVER TUBA. I USE TO GO TO HARRISONS A LOT BUT STOPPED GOING BECAUSE OF THE SAME TYPE OF SERVICE WE GOT EARLIER THAT DAY. WE ALL REALLY APPRECIATED THE MANAGER AND SHE TOOK AWESOME CARE OF US. IN THE TIME IT TOOK US TO GET OUR CHECKS, PAY THEM AND GET UP, 4 DIFFERENT WAITRESSES ASKED HOW WE WERE DOING TONIGHT AND ASKED IF WE NEEDED ANYTHING. THE DIFFERENCE IN THE SERVICE AND THE WAITRESSES BETWEEN THE NIGHT AND THE DAY IN THAT BAR IS EXACTLY THAT.

Where To Sit:
The pool table side has more of the action. It seems everyone who can't get in on a game at least likes to be a spectator.
