Steam Engine Pizza Pub

First visit here and was highly impressed. Friday night, UK basketball game was winding down, and there was a pretty good crowd. Service was still excellent and the food made to order. Okay, so maybe I’m biased because this place is local to me. It’s still darn tasty and definitely worth visiting if you happen to find yourself in Irvine, Kentucky.
The location is on Main Street and if you’ve never been there, it may be a little tough to find. Parking is decent, mostly street-​side. However if it’s busy, they offer take away with the ability to phone in your order. Don’t get it twisted. This is NOT chain pizza. This is pizza made fresh on a local level. Fresh dough. Fresh toppings. Nothing is «pre-​prepared» and trucked in.
Probably some of the best pizza and cheese sticks you’ll ever put in your mouth. Seriously. Know what’s even cooler? They have a bar. They serve beer. They have big screen TV’s, and even though the atmosphere can seem perky and upbeat, there’s also a hint of «quaint» to it and that’s part of the small town charm. The waitstaff are all super friendly and polite, the wait TIME is minimal, depending on crowd, and the dining area/​bar were both extremely clean and well kept.
There’s a completely separate dining area partitioned off from the «bar» portion so if you’re only interested in having a piping hot pie, or if you’re uninterested in adult beverages, there’s ample seating and is more geared towards «dining». I enjoy beer with my pizza though, and this is a rather lovely and relaxed spot to do such enjoying.
Enough already. Go here. Now.
