What people say, in short

Cody's Public House draws recommendations for casual outings, including visits with dogs. One patron praised the outdoor space, and another said the private room worked well for a party. Crowding is a caveat: one returning visitor still liked the bar but found it packed, while another former regular had heard it had changed since their pre-pandemic visits.
