First time here. Staff is great, food is delicious and a good selection of beer. I like the set up with the bar in the middle

I’ve been here 3 times and after the first two times of horrible service I shouldn’t have come back. But I had hoped it was a bad day or a one off. After the 3rd time I know it’s a regular thing. The servers seem absolutely miserable to have customers. Rudely tell you it’s auto grat, then provide horrible service treating you like burdens. The food is mid, typical bar food nothing exceptional. The location and bar itself are good, and could be fun if the people who worked there weren’t miserable to be working. They’re going to get their $18 an hour to be there if they have customers or not, clearly they would prefer they didn’t. Wouldn’t recommend this place to any of my friends and won’t be back after the last time.

Arrived with a reservation for 645 and got seated. Just myself and my 10 year old. Seated in the corner which was fine. Waiter started off with 10 minute wait before finding us for drinks.

Appy took 20 minutes to come out, once nearly done I wanted to order dinner. Very hard to track down the waiter, had to have busser find him.

When my burger came the inside of the bun was burnt to black and very crispy. It is a double patty mushroom burger and I couldn't even taste the meat or anything else other than burnt.

I never could flag the Waiter down after that, waved and called for him 5 more times with no result. The hostess brought our bill, never asked how anything was and we left.

Terrible experience and 2 stars is being generous. I won't be back unfortunately

The service is real bad and the food even worse. Don't put rosemary on tater tots.

Bells & Whistles Fraser is such a fun spot! The drinks are creative, flavorful, and expertly crafted, and the menu has plenty of unique options to try. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make the experience even more enjoyable. The atmosphere is lively and welcoming — a great place to hang out with friends or try something new. I’ll definitely be coming back to explore more of what they offer!

My daughter LOVES this place. They have a few (token) arcades that are always a hit, even for a short play, the atmosphere is friendly, food is great, drinks are great, and staff is great!

But tonight they were so amazing I just had to write a review. I showed up with my daughter for a mother-daughter dinner. The place was packed because of an important baseball game, and my daughter was super disappointed we could not sit down as planned. I think Alicia, who welcomed us, figured it out. She managed to find us a perfect comfy-cozy spot so we could have our ‘date night’ there after all. She even gifted a few tokens to my kid so she could have fun right away!

The food was hot and delicious. Our server Josh was so awesome: friendly, enthusiastic, he went out of his way to ensure we were happy.

On such a busy night, I was really impressed with their level of client service. We live nearby, and this visit made us want to go on our special dates more regularly - at B&W!

Thank you guys!

Built in gratuity, just so you’re aware at beginning. Service was slow, food standard pub quality.

Their food is terrible. Onions were soggy a doughy. The disco fries had a gritty sauce. Mushroom burger was bland. The only positive is the arcade which kept the kids entertained. Definitely will not return. It's ok to come here for drinks, but I do not recommend the food.

The place was nice and the time we went it was lively of what you'd expect of a sports bar (loud and inebriated) which was fitting, but the service the small few either were: rude, hasty, or annoyed but it was until we were assigned a specific waiter that it wasn't so bad the two of us that went got fish, it was poor for the price: plain, small, underwhelming, and overall tasteless other than fries but there isn't really a way to mess up fries.

Nice place and the food was good, only downside is it takes a pretty long time after ordering for the food to come out

Lots of great gluten free options, I’m celiac- they have a separate fryer. Came with a big group last night with no reservation and they were very accommodating. Samantha was very conscientious and gave us all lots of info and was super nice, and served our whole table, we were in and out and changing seats but she didn’t seem stressed at all even though we showed up with like 20+ people on a random Tuesday lol. Props to her, she’s a great server.
