Pristine is the word I would use to describe this well managed grocery store. And the first grocery store I've seen carrying the long promised selection of wines in store!

A great sunday night dinner of halibut and chips.We requested fries with no salt and were rewarded with chips just the way we like them.Service was excellent even though they were quite busy.Kitchen staff are obviously on top of their game as everything was prepared beautifully.I highly recommend for a great dining experience.

Great food, great service! It was very busy when we were there last, but we managed to get a table for 6 without a reservation. There were a couple of big parties there at the same time, but all were accommodated.Dietary restrictions: My daughter has many food sensitivities and she is always able to find something to eat that doesn't bother her. They have gluten free buns and yam fries which are great!Kid-friendliness: They have a wide range of options for both food and drinks!

Great local independently owned and operated restaurant with friendly staff. Good selection of local craft beer and menu options. I recommend the pickle burger with endless fries made with local potatoes. Some of the best fries I've ever had! My husband recommends the Cobb salad..loves it.

Happy Jack's is a great place! The service is remarkable, bartender is awesome, and the food is amazing and is always consistent. It has a lovely atmosphere, it is always my top choice to go out and eat. Each and every one of the staff is lovely, as well as the owner Sherri. It's amazing seeing what they've done with the restaurant.

Love it here! Our server Zennea was great, went above and beyond. Everyone was very friendly, and it’s a very warm welcoming atmosphere. Food was great, everyone at our table enjoyed. Fair prices as well! Booths are comfy, lots of parking, nice big bright windows. I’m sad we didn’t make it in sooner, but will be back! ✨

We have eaten at Happy Jack’s several times now. The food is always amazing, the service is excellent and the restaurant is spotlessly clean. My favorite is the chicken Brie sandwich, my husband loves the steak! See you soon!Dietary restrictions: Happy Jack’s takes great care to provide me with an amazing gluten free meal. Their efforts are much appreciated and I have never had any issues.
