Imagine the level of delusional to profile someone’s clothing and kicking them out when it was just guy wanting to try a new place. 🤯

Place segregates people on way they look.... Not a place to go as they play the politics game....

Gotta be honest: I ordered the chili cheese dog with pure skepticism.

I thought, "no way is a chili cheese dog worth $15".

I was mistaken. The first two bites were worth that and everything else is a bonus.

So if you're a fan of chili cheese dogs, hurry up and get one before they realize what they have and start charging more.

Great little spot. Home away from home, your favourite local dive bar. Good for breakfast from 8am or a few drinks in the evening (or afternoon if you are thirsty!)

A lovely little place. The staff is very down to earth and nice. The food is incredible and honestly I felt like it came out pretty quick. The price is very reasonable making it a great repeat place and not just a once in a while treat which I'm glad about because I'd been hoping this could become a regular joint of mine and it most definitely will be now. It is loud, being a tavern, so be aware if you have noise sensitivities it's a small place with music and TVs going and people talking.

First meal of my Portland experience. I don't know if I was just really hungry or if it really was that good, but I had an out of body experience while eating my fried haddock sandwich and then I looked down and it was gone. Everything was perfectly crispy and seasoned- even the fries tasted exponentially better than your run of the mill dive bar. The bartender was super nice, it felt like it would be easy to become a regular there. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in town.
