My partner and friends been coming here since they opened. Claudio, Patrick and the whole staff are super friendly and welcoming. We always have a great time here, the alcohol selection is amazing. We also tried the food a handful of time and it's super yummy. They have the games on TV on game days, pool table in the back. This is just what this neighborhood needs.

Friendly staff, great pool bar. My go-to for any sport events.

Awesome service, heavy pours and great prices!I feel like this would be a type of small town local bar from a rom-com movie. The bartenders are super friendly, attentive and are generous with the drinks. I've been here more than a handful of times and never had a bad experience. Like what others have said, the vibe is super friendly and chill which explains why they have a lot of regular. They normally have a few games playing on their TVs which is great because shots and sports are always good together. I've been here on their slow days and had great conversations with the bartenders and I've been here on busy game days where they're still friendly and quick with their drinks. If you're looking for a place to chill, this would be a great place to check out!

I want to like this place but the staff is not friendly at all, even to the locals. So what’s the point?

Good local spot. Super clean, decent drinks and there's pool tables in the back. Prices on several rounds not bad at all.

I walked in and the bartender with the hat just stared, no greet, took forever to walk down to me to ask me if I wanted to order. I don’t think they like brown folks ?this my third time coming and still the same results. Overpriced and they don’t even have apple martini’s…smh

Love meeting my husband here after work! The vibe is friendly and chill. And the bartender is attentive. In our experience, they ask you what type of beers we like and serve us accordingly. We haven't yet tried a cocktail but the shots are generous. Now for the food.... We CRAVE the wings here lol. They are so good. Not a traditional buffalo wing. Not too hot, slightly tangy, with a hint of sweetness, and highly addictive. Anything we've had here has been delicious. Great place to watch any game too!

Super cozy bar, staff and customers are all so friendly and the drinks are delicious. There also seemed to be a room in the back for private events - very cool!

Came here few days ago for happy hour after school to meet colleagues from local HS up the block. Came early to beat the crowd. Nice bartender, waiter and other locals welcomed me and my coworker. Ordered wings and potato skins. Yummy! Clean, and pretty accommodations...sweet place to hang out. Large room in back our group took over the place. Lots of good vibes and fun!

We had a Class Reunion and everything was excellent. The food, service and venue was a big hit with many of us. Pat and Claudio accommodated our needs and made sure that anything we asked for would be received. Highly recommend these folks!
