My fry’s tasted moldy. When our friends conversation turned political they cranked up the sound on the TV. Rude. Won’t be back

Stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon to enjoy a beer and the great weather . This spot is perfect! Nice vibe, clean and sleek , and Bryce our server was very personable and helpful. If you’re a cyclist it’s a great stopover point to pull in and have a beverage. For those of us who just like to watch cycling it’s a great spot, too!

Staff were amazing! There were a few hiccups with certain dishes being temporarily out, and a little bit of a wait on some of our food but it was remedied quickly and the food/drinks were well worth it!

I frequent here, it's good place, good beer.
I'd give them 4 stars if they actually had a lunch menu at 12p.

They serve Brunch until 2p, the only thing I can get is a burger or breakfast food. I DO NOT want breakfast at 12p. Please, give me lunch options!

Also, it'd be great if they could fix the accustics of the building, it very noisy.

If there was a 0 star I would do 0 order a chicken sandwich and a small fries. They brought the chicken sandwich 30 minutes later and no fries when I asked for the fries it took them forever to bring out the fries. there was a waitress bending down and you could see her crutch come on if is a family welcome environment they shouldn't allowed body shorts. or should advise so people don't expose their kids or teach them a better way to bend to pick up stuff so kids don't have any surprises. will never ever go back food was not good at all. for 25 dollars go to IHOP. you will have a better experience.

9/25. I am editing my review of Single Speed

Previously, I had been disappointed in Single Speed several times over the summer. Last night I had such a different experience, I had to edit the review.

Over the summer, I was very upset with the lack of wait staff, the mediocre food, and an all around… “abandoned” feeling to Single Speed. It almost felt like Single Speed gave up on itself. Last night, I hope(!), is the turn around they need to get back to their opening months’ vibe.

Let’s start with the food. They used to have this vegetarian Reuben that was worth riding to Single Speed to order. They have since swapped that with a vegetarian banh mi. I was not in the mood for a banh mi, so I decided to go with the wings. (Please note, I will order the banh mi on my next visit.) I ordered their rotating sauce with blue cheese (no ranch for me!) and fries. Their rotating sauce last night was a habanero and …peach? The wings were perfectly cooked! That crispy skin and the fall off the bone meat were just…perfect. I asked our waiter to have the cooks damn near burn the fries because I really love a crispy fry. They delivered! The blue cheese tasted homemade. If it wasn’t they need to stick with that brand. The rotating sauce on the wings is the only drawback of the whole meal. I never tasted habanero or the fruit that it was paired with. That being said, I would rather have perfectly cooked wings that pretty much just taste like wings than over sauced and/or poorly cooked wings any day!

I really wish I remembered our waiter’s name. I am sorry if you are reading this, dude, because you personally changed my entire review of Single Speed. You were attentive, but not overbearing. You were friendly without being fake. Yes, the food was good, but your professionalism and friendliness made the night. Tom Colicchio once said, “People come for the food, but come back for the service.” You deserve a raise. Thank you, dude.

Great space, awesome atmosphere and the bartender, Walker, was great. Tons of seating inside and outdoors. The outdoor space has a covered area as well. I had the Ahi Tuna Bowl and it was delish! Cool area for your kiddos and there’s this fun board that changes messages every few minutes. Super cool vibe!!!
