The food here is outstanding. Had two pizzas, both solid cracker crust that held its shape even with all the toppings. The salad was the highlight, lightly dressed but still enough at the bottom to dip pita. Spot is a hidden gem.

Great local find! The patio/beer garden is dog friendly with a fire pit, TVs and really nice comfortable seating, plus lawn games connect 4. There was a nicer wine selection than I was expecting for a local bar. The inside design was lovely.
New menu just started and fried chicken sandwich was so tasty!! Menu is small but everything we had was very good.
Can’t wait to go back!

Nice, new bar, with a great dog-friendly patio (with a big outdoor TV, for watching sports outside). Reasonable drink prices. Friendly staff. Full kitchen isn’t open yet, so TBD on food. But I will be back for sure, with the dog.

Backstory reopened a few months ago and they did an amazing job! Great drink specials and the beer garden is going to be sick when it’s open soon. Make sure to be nice to their amazing bartender, Hanna, and tip her well!!!

Glad this spot is finally back open! It's a nice spot to grab a drink and watch live sports. Haven't seen the patio yet, but I hope to before I move

Great new tavern! They’re still working out some opening stuff, but I can’t wait to see this place take off!
