tl;dr- Don’t go if service matters to you

Definitely aren’t going for the food so ignore that portion of the review but it’s pretty plain that if you aren’t a regular don’t expect good service like at all, unfortunate because it’s a cool place but the service is almost abysmal.

Live updates on score lowering: Completley ignored at the bar after being asked to move to a different seat


Final Update: Upon arrival to the bar it is a super cool atmosphere, sat at the bar at a normal seat ordered a beer all good
asked to move, whatever, then ignored for the rest of my time couldn’t get another drink or anything.

This place really does feel like you’re somewhere else, in the best way. I pop in here while my kiddo is at a club elsewhere in the mall and it’s my happy place. Delightful service by the bartender, great selection of unique and local drafts, and just overall a lovely spot.

The long haired kid behind the bar opened 10 minutes late. He said, “I’m not ready for you yet.” That’s all fine with me.

When he was finally ready, and I had been sitting and waiting patiently, he helps two guys who just walked in. I walked out and won’t be back.

A little dark inside but a welcome reprieve from the grueling day at the mall

They've done a revamp, so there are a lot more tables and room to play, and that's really nice! The tavern is great, pretty fair selection of drinks and the atmosphere is wonderful.

Looked online to find out what time they closed on a Monday and their website says 11p. Called to double check and was assured 10:30p was last call for drinks. We show up and takes 7min for anyone to even show up to the bar and he says last call is 9:30p, in 3 minutes. What terrible terrible service!!

Love coming here. People are friendly, and I’m guilty of getting the ramen noodles every time. It’s bar food, but that’s my kind of place. If you like games and beer you’ll like this place.

Cool setting, but snacks were pretty bad

If you're the kind of person that remembers playing d&d in your dorm room in college have I got a bar for you. If you're someone that wants to enter the fun world of tabletop gaming at a casual pace have I got a bar for you.

Great place to relax over a game or hit up an event. Visited with family and split a mead flight and pair of pretzels over a trial game from their extensive store set. Will be back next time I am in town.
