“We just had our first visit here tonight and really enjoyed it. Good draft beer selection, games for the kids, and the food was also very good! Our kids really enjoyed the pancakes (mini fried pancake puffs) and the portions were large and my husband had the haddock with amazing beef tallow fries. I had the poke bowl but in my opinion it was lacking some sort of dressing or sauce. A little soy, ginger, sesame oil combo would be nice! We definitely plan to visit again.“

I am 61 years old and have been able to drink legally since I was 18, So needless.to say I have been in a frw bars in my life. Not just here but around the country and parts of the world. And in all that time I never had a bartender come back after I paid them and say the accidentally charge me too much and gave me change back. This is a testament to how awesome this place is. Everyone is welcoming and friendly. So come on down and spend an evening with friends.“

Flight of Bourbon

“With over a thousand different kinds of whisky (~700 being bourbon alone), this is a very good place for an after work drink. Great atmosphere , first bourbon bar in the area so lots of history, and comparable prices. I had the sample flights from Aaron and Liv, both offered an excellent sampling (although I liked Aaron's better - sorry Liv). What even made it more comfortable was the lady knitting at the bar, just like being back at my American Legion Post. Loved it. I will be back!“
