They have events so frequently, and the place is so packed, you will rarely get your drink or your food.

Atmosphere and service, and drink were great, the food was highly disappointing, both mine and my daughter's had absolutely no flavor and was room temperature. đ

First time ever going there after hearing such good reviews. Our experience was horrible. First let me say Iâve worked as a bartender/waitress for many years. I know how it can be stressful and hard but last night wasnât even busy. There were multiple people behind the bar so our bartender wasnât busy. But our bartender was more interested in talking to her boyfriend about him going in to target and what he bought. Snapping at customers and sighing heavy while saying âanyway about targetâ when customers are trying to order a beer doesnât come off very appropriate. THEN we had to ask a different bartender who was very nice and joking with us to order food. Do not ever get the charcuterie board. I am certain we were served rotten salami. It was the most foul tasting salami Iâve ever had in my life but we didnât dare say anything. We had our drinks, paid and left. Never going back to that place. Horrible service and food.

$20 for a Caeser salad with chicken and watery dressing! That was the worst salad I've ever had! I'd suggest changing vendors for that dressing.

The beer there and outdoor summer seating is about the only thing I'd say is great about this place. Went to eat dinner there the other day, and the chairs were very uncomfortable. Very loud. The layout was not great. The food was not worth it. It's very bland and boring. I would not recommend spending your money on the food.

Fantastic servers and bartenders, and they treated me with nothing but kindness.
Though, the burger I got to-go was anything but kind. The meat patties were literally hard as a rock, and the edges of the patties chipped off. Iâve never had a more old-tasting, cooked from frozen seeming, and overcooked burger in my life. Huge ick.
Usually big grove nails it with food, but this experience was a MASSIVE let down with cuisine.

What a beautiful restaurant! The food was good for me but, my husband said that his macaroni and cheese was dry. The other thing that was bothersome was how long it took to get our food it was quite a wait. The staff were nice so that made it better.

What a cute little place! I really enjoyed my experience here. Hostess was very nice and welcoming.
What we got:
⢠salted rim sour
⢠high street punch (mocktail)
⢠tuna poke bowl (#1 most popular/ordered item! delicious)
⢠cheese steak (not pictured) but it was good
I thought the portion sizes were perfect! Would definitely come again.
Parking: It can get very busy! But there are a lot of options.

Great place to grab food and beer with friends. The summer jam is absolutely the BEST BEER IN THE UNIVERSE! Love their outdoor seating area.
