Wanted to try a place we haven't been to and we are so glad we found this little gem. The drinks were on point but the steak a s cheese sandwich was straight out of Philly!!!! The right mix of steak cheese and veggies. We will be back again. And the bartender Cassy was a sweetheart. Love it!

Have been here several times over several years but don’t visit often. The atmosphere is great, nice bar and bright seating area. The food for us was marginal and we tasted a few different beers and ultimately decided on one but they all seemed flat even the full poor. I didn’t drink the draft and ordered a canned option which was much better. The wings were the best bite. Very dark in color but had flavor and the meat was juicy. The burger was ok, didn’t have much...

We came to Local Craft and had a great time. The drinks were amazing, and our server Gio was awesome – super friendly and attentive. The food was okay, nothing special, but we’ll definitely be coming back for the drinks and the great service from Gio!
