Camping at Bob Shetler and decided to stop in. Fantastic staff, very attentive and personable. Friendly patrons too, had great conversations with all. We stopped in numerous times during our stay and we will definitely be back. Keep up the good job!

Came down to visit and was just trying this place out and I ended up coming here 5 times on my 2 week stay. Also has amazing staff that you can have a conversation with.

We had high hopes with new owners, but tried to go here and the same manager(?) bartender(?) was super rude, he was there about a year ago and we were embarrassed to take people there then so we hoped with new owners it would be a better atmosphere!

Also, our friends went yesterday and tried to bring their service dog(she has epilepsy) and the man was very rude and said “NO DOGS HERE” (nothing else, no greeting nothing ) but when asked why there was a bowl on the floor, filled with water(clearly a dog bowl) he said “that’s from the old owner we have new owners now - fair, but when we checked records it’s says owners bought this bar in May 2024 soo a water bowl for dogs has been sitting there for 3 months??

Stopped in for a drink after a 10 mile hike. Very cool bar. No food confirmed. Patrons and bartender banter is really funny and cool too. I would most definitely go again next time I'm in the area.
