Wings were overcooked and our food took forever. Not even busy in there for a Saturday evening. The monster burger with cheese sticks and pepperoni, just don't. Waitress didn't say a word when I told her about my wings. One and done. Oh, and they were out of french fries.

Terrible experience at the tavern . Service was the worst I've had anywhere. The food took over an hr to come out and there where empty tables everywhere so they where not busy . Then my wife's burger came out pink when she ordered well done .

We heard about this tavern/restaurant from friends and drove 45 minutes to get there. The food was great and the atmosphere was the perfect 'tavern' experience. It definitely earned the recommendations and met the time in travel expenditure with more returns planned for future.

We have ate here several times, but tonight’s experience was definitely nothing to brag about. Our meals came in shifts, and the soup and grilled cheese came 20 mins after everyone was finished. No drink refills.the food was not as good as in the past visits. We will come back in hopes that next time things have improved.

Nice tavern on Backbone Mountain. We went on a Tuesday evening in June when it was not too busy. My cheesesteak sandwich was yummy and my wife’s salad consisted of generous portions of crispy chicken, vegetables and croutons. We ordered some fresh made pork rinds with a side of mesquite bbq seasoning. They came out cracking and consisted of a very generous serving. They were delicious. Our waitress was also very attentive and friendly. We hope to return at a later date when they have live music.

Amazing wings. Great sauces, nice original flavors and friendly staff. Definitely recommend, but limited seating, so make sure to get there early, or be ready to wait. Looks like outdoor seating was available as well, rained when we got there.

Stopped here on a whim. Owner was super nice. All the workers were amazing. Let me tell you though, I’ve ate wings in 7 countries and THESE wings are the best I’ve ever had. I highly recommend at least 1 dozen Italian Stallion wings.

My son got the double bacon cheeseburger. Its 1lb of beef. He said it was great. The cook didn't think he could finish it, he did. The cook also said he was the first customer to get it.
