The restaurant, now under new management and ownership, offered exceptional food. The steak I had was one of the best, and the atmosphere was magnificent. Our waitress was polite and courteous, and we had the opportunity to meet the new owner, who is a wonderful person. It's a great place to enjoy a great meal at a great price.”

They go out of their way for me everytime, and I've never had an issue. The floats are delicious and the food is great, too! They're always doing something fun in there, which makes for a really good time!”

“I was staying the weekend in Springfield with my partner and I stumbled upon this place while looking for interesting breweries. We decided to take the short trek to check it out. It was totally worth it. Bartender was fun. The few patrons were welcoming. There was a musician playing a small acoustic set that was pretty good. Overall great experience. I loved my drink (toasted marshmallow espresso tini) and my partner enjoyed his flight of beers. We wished we were staying closer because we totally would have been back.”

They are boneless and big pieces of chicken with a special breading that is homemade and nothing like I've ever had before!! The Capone burger and Alley fries are great also. Tish (owner) is awesome along with her food!!”

“If you're vacationing in Auburn, this is a must visit attraction. The ambiance is unique and friendly. You'll be comfortable from the first ice cold sip of your last drink. The servers are the nicest people you'll ever encounter. Don't forget to order a pizza prepared to perfection on site. If you get cabin fever, no worries, they have an outdoor gathering area fit for a king, but will be a delightful oasis for you and your party. Whatever you do, don't end your time in Auburn without experiencing this gem of a watering hole. You might just decide to stay.”
