Great burgers!! Ambiance could use improvement but food is great. Nice drinks. Good specials.

Went here for a relaxing lunch after a long few days with two of my sisters. We love this spot, especially the outside seating in the back patio. Cole is awesome and made me miss being back in my hometown. Good service for how busy the place was. Very popular spot with great beer on draft and reasonably priced wine. 10/10 would recommend this spot. I love the food and always an easy going vibe.

Public & General, the "P&G", a Gastropub in Gainesville. Any beer enthusiast and foodie would dig this place. Amazing burger cooked perfectly medium rare, fried green tomatoes, Florida beers. Take a look at those great menu prices!

A hole in the wall joint that pleasantly surprised. Looking for a dinner close to the airport and decided on Public. Warning there is no visible signage at night, so good luck finding it without GPS. Once inside, you go to the bar for menus and ordering. You find a table and the food is brought out to you. The menu is small but perfect if you are hungry for a good meal. They have many hard to find beers and solid taps. They also have a separate wine bar with someone to assist. We opted for dry rub wings, a Buffalo Chicken sandwich, and the Brisket sandwich. I highly recommend the Buffalo Chicken. Service and staff are excellent. We will return.

A nice little stop on our way to the spring, Public & General was an interesting little find with some good specials and wide open seating. The dill fries were delicious and the kids enjoyed the chicken and burger. My BLT was rather greasy which was unexpected since it was on "local sourdough", but I still managed to enjoy half of it. The craft beer selection had a little for everyone also, which is always a good touch. Overall, I'd love to return and try their dinner menu, and in the meantime might enjoy lunch with a different pick.

Went for dinner with friends and had one of their dinner specials and am so glad I did. I ordered the pan seared snapper and it was prepared perfectly and the portion size was great. Even though it was a Friday and they weee busy the service was still great and they were so friendly. Definitely recommend for a chill night out with great food.

Very cool place and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Fried polenta was outstanding!! Burger was excellent and the fresh cut fries were so good.

We were a bit skeptical when we drove up but were pleasantly surprised by the whole experience. Moving from a big foodie city we have had trouble finding decent food options but Public & General did not disappoint. The cocktails were great as well as the food and service. We had Gin Basil Smash and a Cuke Ellington for cocktails, both refreshing and delicious. We had the burger and pork taco lunch specials. Both great. Glad we didn't drive on by to look for something else. We will be back.

This is the second time in three days we have found ourselves at this local eatery. The staff is incredible, hip and very attentive. Service is fantastic. The menu is limited and I appreciate this because the quality is above board. They are focused on doing what they do well. Cocktails are on point. I HIGHLY recommend the Shrimp and Pesto Gnocchi. I had them add pesto to a grilled cheddar cheese sammich and accompanied it with the tomato basil soup! Enjoy other options. First time we went in the evening and it was such a vibe. The second time we went after the "school" let out and we sat outside. Do not recommend doing this. Overall it was 10/10 highly recommend!!
