Show us the ring!

In honor of the passage of the Marriage Equality Law in New York State (finally!), Public would like to toast all of those, gay or straight, who are bravely tying the knot. Just "show us the ring" or let us know you're getting hitched, and enjoy a complimentary cocktail on Jill and Trish. Meanwhile you can also enjoy a delicious dinner, with a seasonally inspired menu that includes chargrilled steaks and chops, freshly prepared pastas, tilapia and other seafood choices. On the weekends, we spice things up with such specialties as Thai curry, Szechuan stirfry or Middle-eastern chicken kebabs. Our salads feature locally grown produce, soups are prepared fresh each day, and creative starters like spicy Asian wontons, steamed mussels, and gourmet thin-crust pizzas add to the fun.

Open at 5 pm for dinner Weds - Sunday, and on Friday and Saturday the kitchen stays open until at least 9 p.m. Reservations are recommended on Friday and Saturday nights, or for parties of four or more. 607 326-4026. Located in the heart of historic Roxbury, on Bridge Street next to the simply fabulous Roxbury Motel. Come meet a friend, or make a friend, in Public. You can always find out what's cooking (and hear about other specials) on our Facebook page.
