Great spot! We got cornbread with pepper jam, baked mac and cheese, and the mushroom skillet, and all were really good. The cheese that came with the skillet was amazing, and finding out they make it fresh every day was a nice bonus. We ended up combining some of the mushroom marinade with bites of mac and cheese, and they were even better together.

Some of the people who work there make for an awkward, cold environment. Not very welcoming vibes at all. The food (Mac n cheese, pretzel) wasn’t good and it was overpriced. I was happy to see the shuffleboard, but where they had it set up felt awkward, like you’re on display for everyone in the place. The live music was nice. I went a couple times, but haven’t been back for several months. No desire to go back.

Great place, we love it here. This time we got the lemon chicken soup, combo board, soft pretzel, and hummus. Everything was fantastic. I'm seriously still dreaming about the sausage and cheese and mustard on a baguette from the combo board.

It is a big space and I really wanted to enjoy it. The shuffleboard and games in the back were fun for the kids. We went around noon-1pm on Saturday and it was pretty empty. We ordered four things to share amongst our small group and it all came out cold - soft pretzel plate, side of cornbread, pork nachos and the olive plate. The pretzel and cheese dip were cold; the pretzel seemed store bought and rather small. The pickled veggies were just two different kinds of onions. The same cheese dip was used on the pork nachos. Although the pork was tender, the cheese on the nachos and the pork were also cold. Beware it does come covered in sour cream and not much else. The cornbread was undercooked and was also cold (it was useless to try and spread butter on it). The olive plate did come with a lot of olives, too much really. I hoped the sliced baguette bread would be toasted or warm, but it was not and seemed to have been sliced earlier in the day and was a little stale. Maybe we ordered the wrong things, but we were very disappointed with our meal. Also, you order at the counter and they bring your food out. The server spilled and broke a glass of red wine all over my husband's pant leg, the table, and our silverware. They didn't replace the silverware and we had to get up to ask for it. No one checks on you to see if the food was good or if you need anything else. Hopefully they can make some positive changes because it is a cool spot.

Great ambience & a great little spot to go with friends! The ease of ordering at the counter and then finding a seat is perfect for groups so you don't have to split the check different ways! :) The Mac n cheese was delicious and the charcuterie was perfect for sharing. We will definitely be back & recommend this for anyone wanting a relaxing environment & tasty food!

Not much atmosphere but good service and great food. Some evenings there is live music which is a bonus. Local regulars add local color. Can't go wrong.
Kid-friendliness: Kids accommodating place. Games on hand.

Only go if you want to wait a year for a sand which. Those chefs are like turtles and need to move a bit faster Jeeze.

We went after the fair and nobody ever smiled. The owner or manager was uncomfortably hovering the employees every move and maybe that’s why nobody looked happy to work there. My sandwich was ok and the salad was great. Not sure if we will ever return.
We had lunch here and it was super delicious! Order at the counter off the limited menu but rest assured the items are done really well. Made fresh, it came pretty quickly. I loved my savory Cubano crepe! And my parry enjoyed their food as well. Already looking forward to returning to try something different.
Vegetarian options: There were a few vegetarian options to choose from.
Wheelchair accessibility: Right off the sidewalk.

The food was good but somehow underwhelming. We got the pulled pork nachos which barely had pork on it, if it was more I would say it was a really nice plate. We also got the mushroom skillet and that was so simple, no proper spice, sauce or anything, just plain mushroom with a spoon of sour cream in the middle. There was live music when we were there and it was too loud, we ended up leaving early as it more like a bar where you go to drink and not hear to your friends instead of a nice dinner place.

GREAT spot! The Big Cheese board was fantastic. And a lot of food.Service was amazing. You could see the care, love and attention put into everything they made. I had straight lemonade that was the servers special concoction and it was exactly what this na girl needed! Love ?The vibe is also super special. Airy, open, relaxing and just a cool hang out.

Food was unique and flavorful. Atmosphere (with a band and locals chattering) was hypnotic, taking you to a place in time where good vibes reverberated through your soul. Ambiance was equally warm.
