Deal was 4 bowlers get a bowl and 2 pizzas. Wouldn't ring up because we had a party of 3. Pizza had good flavor but thick (Detroit style) with a lot of cheese. Sweet Potato fries were good. Manager was helpful but lacked service on patio. No silverware or napkins and had to keep going inside for service. Got unused napkins from abandoned table. Bowling was fun. Not very handicapped friendly for games.

We took our grandkids here. We were impressed by the food and service. It’s a brewery but it’s not just fried bar food , though they do have great cheese curds and fries. The West coast salad was perfect: evenly chopped, tossed and dressed. Very flavorful too. The Italian melt was such a tasty sandwich in every bite. The mortadella is to die for. Service is fast and friendly. The kids love the arcade (especially the classic pinball) and bowling is fun. Burgers are decent and fires hot and crispy and perfectly seasoned. Oh and the beers are all excellent, including root and ginger.

We played duck pin and in the arcade. It was a super fun evening for my family and we ended up getting out of the house for a few hours. We didn’t try the food but it looked great and they had gluten free options!

We really enjoy this place! My burger was great and enjoyed the sweet potato fries as well. It was a lot of fun to play duck pinballing when we were done as well. It's so nice to have a place nearby that has more to do than just eat 🙂

I reduced it by a star because the burger that I went to order said it would be gluten free if I ordered gluten-free bun. But I asked clarifying questions based on the ingredients that I saw in the burger and both the crispy onions and the fries that came with it were not gluten free. Thankfully, I was able to make modifications so I could eat but would have been quite sick if I had taken their word for it on the menu.

This is a fun place to hang out for an evening. Duck bowling is entertaining with friends. I've come here multiple times and enjoyed the burgers and beers. I had the fried pickles tonight and they were just ok. The Mac n cheese burger with honey pepper sauce added was amazing! Our service tonight was not good, but that hasn't been my experience in past visits.

The portion of my food was not very large and the service was not that great. It wasn't that it was terrible. It just was not worthy of the time and money.

Good wings, good service, good beers. Nice arcade and 6 duckpin bowling alleys. Beer price is a bit high.

Ordered the Mac and cheese burger w/rice. The Mac was really bland but over all the food was good and the price even better. Would give a higher rating but yall need to turn up the volume on the DDR in the game room. Who wants to play when the sound is basically off.
