The burgers did not disappoint. I had read so much about the stuffed tots, but for me they were so so, probably won't order them again. A huge shout out to our server, Bailey, who made our experience so enjoyable. She showed up at all the right times to refill drinks, (and made sure they were just right),bring our food and check in with us. She put our experience over the top. Thank you, Bailey!

After falling in love with this place over 13 years ago I came back this past weekend. I'm still so obsessed with this bar. Amazing drinks, atmosphere, and people. I can not wait to come back.

Came to check out the classic arcade games while burning some time. Ended up watching an episode of Bob Ross while enjoying a couple tasty chilli cheese dogs and some PBR. Pretty cool place with friendly service, great food, and good vibes. Will be back to get a burger and check out their arcada. Oh and go with the Chronic Fries.
