The smoked bacon is phenomenal on most of the sandwiches!

Great place. However, my buffalo chicken had no heat at all and my friends BLTs were very underwhelming to the point of not finishing despite being exhausted and starving. Servers were busy but could be seen chit chatting and sitting around

This place was great. Lots of seating options. They have a covered patio and an uncovered patio plus indoor seating. Lots of appetizers and sandwiches to choose from. I wasn't expecting much from the food because it is a bar but the food was really delicious. We were a party of 4 and we all got something different and everyone was very happy with their order. The staff was great! Nice atmosphere. We will go back again. I got a smash burger and homemade chips. My hubby got grilled chicken and waffle fries. Our friends got sweet potato fries and the nickel burger and Philly steak with regular fries. Every thing was delicious. We also got pretzel bites and fried pickles for appetizers.

Lobster Rangoon was really good. Didn't like the shrimp skewers with the rub we picked. Sweet chili probably would have been better. Also, music isn't loud enough.

We come here fairly often. Great stop after a bike ride on the nearby trails. Nice outside patios in good weather. Good food and drinks.

The Buffalo chicken wrap had a sweet taste to it, so if you like a sweeter hot sauce you might like it. Their ranch was really good.

Looks smaller than it really is for sure. Plenty of seating inside and out. Every single time I've been there great conversation with random people or comfortable atmosphere for an intimate moment with that special someone. Service has always been top notch! I will continue to go so long as my own review stands true.
