“Came in from out of town and made sure to check out a hockey themed bar being a live long hockey fan. Burger was good despite me not being super hungry. Service was great and our bartender/waitress was great. Only issue was this loud drunk couple swearing and yelling loudly at the bar, throwing F bombs and loudly calling people pussies. I watched the bartender tell him to tone it down a few times but the guy was just a loud belligerent drunk. I am no prude but I don’t go to a restaurant to listen to that. This was at 7:00 not 10:30. Glad I didn’t bring young children with me as that would have been an issue. Loved the place other than that.“

“The food was good. We ate upstairs so we could be outside. We waited a while before we were served. The server didn’t introduce herself. We had to continue to ask multiple times for the same items. She was aloof in her service to us and therefore we tipped her accordingly. When she saw the tip she was surprised that the amount reflected the service we received. Tips are not automatically given they are earned.

We definitely would come again because the food was good. We would want a different server.“

“the customer service is amazing and the root beer floats but the chilli is appalling. it used to be kind of decent but I have no idea what happened to it now. if it was better they'd get even more business. almost everyone loved a good chilli dog. I know it's inexpensive but I'll pay a little bit more for better quality.“

“We celebrated our daughter's wedding with a family dinner (The Hopkins Wedding, a party of 14) in the loft area The service was outstanding! The food was amazing! I've never been to a dinner where everyone was saying, "You've got to try this!' and everyone was tasting each other's dishes. They were fine with us bringing a wedding cake and even found a box big enough to hold the leftover cake. Speaking of leftovers, most of us required take home containers because of the generous portions.We weren't about to leave food that tasty behind!“

We were there for lunch so everyone simply ordered various sandwiches which were all very good. Our only disappointment was that they were out of one of their specials. Obviously that must have been popular with other folks too.“
