Great little spot for a drink and good vibes! Draft options are great and the food is solid bar food options.I had an issue with my bill and they were quick to rectify the situation and were super friendly while doing it!

I've been a repeat customer there mostly for drinks. The food was good with plenty of fries even though there was a small mistake on my order. I'm just disappointed and feel like I got screwed when I was charged $10 for a 12-14oz beer, really??I'm just sick of restaurants deceiving customers by not displaying prices on draft beers and am tired of asking for prices. It's not that hard and would make it more convenient for the customer, servers and would avoid...

This place is one of New Haven's best kept secrets. The staff is great and the food is excellent ? ? ?. This is a place that makes you feel like you were one of the characters from the sitcom CHEERS.. I love this place.
