Reviews
Best place I have eaten in a long time. Pierogies are a must have and the killer kelly pastrami sandwich is a must. Staff is super friendly and atmosphere is very chilled and laid back. Must go to when in the area... and open till 1 a.m.!

Food/drink
*12 inch Bavarian Pretzel (with horseradish, nacho cheese and mustard) - good; huge; hot; horseradish had some kick but cheese was the favorite
*Chicken wings (grilled) with bleu cheese - not a fan; not much flavor or meat
Food and drinks were great! Fast service and friendly staff.
Love love love Changing Times. Their sweet potato fries and wings are the best! Service is extremely fast. Just be careful going late at night because sometimes they close earlier than their posted time... when business is slow.
Had a poor experience. Was served burned food by an elderly cranky woman, who asked us to pay our bill and tip her so she could get back to the old folks home. She was ridiculous. Was told later that she was someones mother(who works there.) Seriously, I want to go home, can you pay your bill and tip me so I can leave...we weren't even done eating(had to return several things because they were burnt) and cocktails hadn't even gotten to round two. The followup server was kinder, but when you serve someone obviously burnt food, you obviously don't care about your customers or yourself. I'd say her time needs a changing...oh, if your still reading, this is a noisy sports bar with many different games on(game day) Lively crowd, 21-60(ish,) First server was past the ish ..
Perfect place to go to on any day, although the game atmosphere on the weekends is a party; crowded but not overcrowded and everyone is friendly. During the week it is quieter and easy to get a table. The servers know their jobs well and are attentive when you need it without overdoing it.
The menu has a different selection from what I expected. There is delicious beer cheese soup, thinly sliced reuben sandwiches with sauerkraut and dressing, various salads such as fantasia salmon salad, buffalo wings, calamari, quesadillas and many more selections including a brunch on Sundays. I don't give 5 stars on food unless it is incredibly special, but this place deserves a very high 4 stars not only for the food but for the quick order taking and serving. Pricing is average unless you are a big drinker; if you are drinking, there are a huge variety of beers and other alcoholic drinks.
There are about 50 live streaming tv's on every wall, including on the outside wall if you prefer to eat outdoors.
Great place to go to with friends and family. Changing Times Pub has to be tried out!
A nice variety of rotating tap beers to keep anyone satisfied for every season. While food prices at restaurants have increased Changing Times have kept them reasonable without skimping on quality. My buddy and I both had the steak sandwich. It was cook to order and not tough at all, tasted excellent! Pierogies were also excellent as well as the turkey burger and shrimp bisque. CT has been around for a while and the interior may not be trendy, but it is clean and functional for a sports pub. Finally, staff is great. We had C J, I think, and was patient and attentive, and was very friendly. Other staff also stopped by checking on drinks or whatever we needed. Can't say enough about the staff.
So if you want a reasonably priced quality meal from an extensive menu, with many sports broadcasts going, give Changing Times a try, you won't go wrong!
30 yrs in same place, do I need to say more... okay apps are superb ( philly eggrolls, pot stickers, fish & chips too), plenty to choose from... beers, special cocktails, tv screens everywhere...great to watch the game and all this "service with a smile"! See Janet at the bar, very pleasant and efficient!
