Shame on the owner and the staff especially Taylor, you should be ashamed of yourselves. A new person walks in and automatically feels like an outsider.
This is the WORST bar I have been too since coming to Polo. I was there for serveral hours NO ONE even smiled at me let alone said hi. Then they played bingo assuming everyone knew what was going on, I did not. Then the second round came and I was standing less 2 feet away from the man Taylor (from the staff) encouraged to play (must be part of the click) but did not even include me and it was obvious I was a first comer to the bar. I am so disappointed in the staff, the clientele let alone the owner that does not train his employees to make everyone feel included. UNLESS YOUR IN THE LAMPLIGHT CLICK don't bother to go

A group of us were there Nov 2nd to try the breakfast. It was great And they did awesome keeping up with every seat full. It will be nice to have somewhere else for breakfast in town, even if it's only on Sundays for now.

I've picked up and dined in here about a handful of times and have been pleased every time. I like that the menu is simple and not overwhelming with options. Grateful to have this restaurant in the area especially when I'm feeling lazy and decide I don't want to cook and can get in & out of here with a full belly in a timely fashion. Burgers have been delicious every time & the wings were good too. Excited to go back and try more things on the menu but the burgers are so good I end up getting them every time lol. They have great daily specials as well.
Also, they did a really good job fixing this place up.... sometimes these newer restaurants modernize a place & it jus feels cold with no character. Not the case at Lamplight. It's clean & more modern, but still feels cozy & inviting. I like the wood on the back bar. 2 thumbs up from this gal.

Got there a little after noon a few weeks ago. Ordered our food after having a drink. Were told about 15 minutes later that it would be a while for our food because there was a meeting going on. Took about an hour more. What business has a meeting going on that close to opening time in the first place? Food was ok. I gave server a 5 star rating, bc the poor girl had to explain this unprofessional situation to customers.
