Highly recommend. We will be back.“

Great little place off of the beaten path. Large selection of Bourbons. Great service by Cindy. I chose the prime rib sandwich with fries. My husband and I shared an order of their fried mushrooms which came highly recommended by (Bill) when we had talked to him a while back. Mushrooms had great flavor and cooked to perfection. Definitely on our list of stops when we are in the area. Prices are very reasonable.“

“Good drinks, karaoke Friday’s“

“Wow, I can't believe this place is still open. It has probably been over 25 years since I visited this place. It was a dive bar on one side, and a strip club on the other side. But lol, they have probably remodeled the place since the last time I was there. I never actually went to the strip club side though, lol. I woukd just go to the regular side, with just a bar, and a pool table, to play a few games of pool. It might be completely different then the way I remember it though. I rarely went there, to be honest, but a lot of my old friends visited the strip club, and talked about it. But anyways, it is so cool to see that this place is still open. I was born and raised on Carbondale, and this place just brings back memories. Long live JB's. Hope everyone around there is doing well.“

“DJ is Awesome!! Great hangout!“

“I could eat this every day of my life and be completely happy“

“We went for lunch and grabbed 3 tacos and the supposedly potato skins. It was nasty, you couldn't chew the steak or chicken and the potatoes were raw covered in nasty cheese. I have always enjoyed tres but won't spend another dime in the place. It gets a big fat zero rating.“

“We’ve drove over from Cape two times now and had excellent food and just as good service both times. The service was outstanding and everyone has been very friendly.“
