charming pub. quips is a nice, out of the way british-style pub on the east side of the city. i have met friends there for the past few years, and it is among the better choices in lancaster city for a laid back, social night out. the place is often very crowded on the weekends and has a lively, social vibe to it, but it doesn't tend to attract the rowdy college crowd. the demographic generally seems to be people in their mid-20s to middle aged.the two dart boards appear to be a big attraction to a lot of patrons, which can be entertaining to watch. quips offers a fairly substantial list of internationalbeersand microbrews on tap, along with a variety of bottled beers. the prices for beer are a little high if you want to sample the premium beers, but yuengling and other cheaper domesticbeersare also available for a few dollars cheaper. i have also found that quips offers some of the best the best pub fare in the county. from bangers and mash to fish and chips, everything i've tried thus far has been of high quality, delicious and fairly priced. they also run daily specials, which knock a few bucks off the menu prices, and can be found on their website. the wings are also perhaps the best i've had at a bar in lancaster to date. i noticed a less than stellar review that claimed they are bad, but in the three or so times i've ordered them, they've been of good quality, well cooked, and moderately coated with sauce leaving them pretty crispy. they're also served with a house-made gorgonzola dip which is 20x better than the usual blue cheese from a bottle. stop over and decide for yourself.
