“Love this bar... Good prices on drinks and bartenders are super cool... The blonde headed one is super cool... I don't remember her name and honestly she probably doesn't remember mine... But she had a great attitude and gives great service. She hooked up with some Carmel Apple jello shots around Halloween... They were awesome! Would totally recommend this bar... You just need to like or appreciate country music... It plays in this bar“

“Went to celebrate my 60th Birthday today with my family for lunch, and it was excellent. After speaking with Craig (Owner) he truly is passionate about serving good, fresh quality food! Everything we ordered was worth coming back again. It’s also family run and his daughters who were servers were exceptional and charming. A++++++“

Digger's Again Bar • $

“Neat little place. Staff was fun, polite, and attentive to drink refills but not pushy or trying to "get that extra tip/sale." Patrons were middle-aged, not the young ones who party, get drunk and obnoxious. Music was great. It was my first time here in a long time, and even though there seemed to be a lot of "regulars," the place was welcoming. I'd absolutely stop by again.“

“Was there on a Saturday night. The staff was great and attentive. The jukebox was playing and people were dancing, but it was not so loud that you couldn't talk to folks next to you. The outside patio (no glass bottles allowed) was much quieter, but still had music (and dancing) it was a bluetooth speaker I suspect. Drinks were affordable. I didn't try the food, but heard that they grill out on the patio on Sundays. I enjoyed the atmosphere here very much“

“A great place to attend drag performances.

For the most part, the venue is nice, but certain areas, depending on where you stand, the music can be overwhelmingly loud to the point you feel it in your chest.

The vibe was good overall.“

“My wife and I went here for the first time Saturday January 10th 2026. I must say from the minute we walked in the front door we were greater with professional and polite bouncers. Have to give a big shout out the bouncers. We sat at the bar and watched the bears game come to an end and met the general manager and she was very polite and good company. As the night went on we never went without being checked on to make sure everything was going good for us. The ladies here were very social and would sit and have a genuine conversation and make you feel very welcome definitely will be back to enjoy all the great people here. Great job kappa gentleman’s club for an upstanding place you run! Great job to all the staff from bar tenders dancers to the bouncers!“

“We arrived right at opening. We were immediately greeted with a friendly smile and a warm welcome by Lee. Already they were swamped with New Year's Eve orders, but Lee was super attentive, and his attitude was just phenomenal. The entire staff was actually really great, they clearly know what teamwork is! The food was absolutely amazing. We tried the pepper jack cheese curds as well as the garlic cheese curds. Delicious. The double cheeseburger (which was the special today) was on point, the chicken sandwich was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of crisp and juiciness, fresh bun, and my favorite crunchy pickles! The restaurant was really clean, and the atmosphere is cozy. Love the chill vibe. The prices are unbelievably amazing too! We will be back! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! If I could give more stars for service, I would!“
