Excellent food, drink and staff!!
We went with friends and truly didn't know what to expect. All cocktails are made with moonshine. I had a blueberry lemon drop, sweet and earthy. The blueberries were a perserve which the blueberries were grown right there in Independence. Then had a peach lemon drop that was savory and was made with peach syrup. My friend had the moonrock, it was cute and tangy. Definitely sugary. She also tried the house margarita with Patron and she enjoyed it as well. Both of our guys had Bluemoon draft beer. We ordered appetizers. We tried the duck wontons (so good), onion rings and chicken cracklins (I 10/10 recommend these). The guys had chicken wings, flavored with the mistake sauce, which consisted of 5 different flavors, garlic parmesean and the blue cheese was cajun. I had a chicken club, it's not on the menu the way I had it, just added cheese and bacon to the fried chicken sandwich with sweet potatoe fries. I ate every bite. My friend had the burger which she enjoyed. The waitress was amazing. She provided all the information needed and was extremely helpful. She let us know the specials for the day and also before we left told us the specials for the upcoming week. The restaurant really has a champion as a waitress. I am so sorry I forgot her name. I waited to long to review. Overall great place to eat.

Cool place, pretzel bites were pretty good. Burgers were terrible…think equivalent to McDonald’s hamburger patty in size, flavor, and texture. First and last visit.

Such a great place with a friendly staff (Natalie and Blake were my servers and they were knowledgeable about the menu and the history of the location) and great food. I’ve only been twice and I’ve gotten the fried chicken both times. It’s one of their Friday specials and man is it special. You won’t find a better chicken plate many places. Cooked to perfection and they only use local chicken sourced without hormones and all the other junk we get fed just about everywhere else these days. You can tell they put pride into serving locally sourced high quality products. I highly recommend the plate, it comes with some tasty Mac and cheese and some pickled watermelon rinds(a unique item but it’s a great complement to the meal). The place was an old strawberry weigh station that dates back to the end of the 19th century that has many of the original features that have been restored to their original glory. An old scale that was used for weighing strawberry’s, an old hidden cellar beneath the original hardwood floors that is being used to store the shine they serve(maybe the original use as well), old sliding barn doors where they unloaded and loaded, and so many other cool nuances throughout that make the atmosphere nostalgic and fun. You’re sure to see a train or two pass by the windows while you eat. This will continue to be a stop for me whenever I’m passing through.
Parking: Plenty available

They no longer sell hotdogs, which was the main reason we went. The menu wasn't marked and the waiter didn't tell us until after we ate out appetizer and started ordering. I ended up getting a burger and it wasn't worth the price. My husband got a wrap and it wasn't good. Fries were soggy. Service was terrible.

They got rid of hot dogs. Changed the burgers and fries. Food was cold. Onion rings great. The wings were extremely dry for being wet.
