AMAZING burgers and I never order burgers for a meal. I crave them. Fries are delish. This is our go to place. Friendly staff and great service.

Great food and pretty fast service. The restaurant can be kind of loud and it's not very large, but my party of 2 sat by the bar and it was perfect.

They no longer have a dirt floor. I guess thats an upgrade? The beer is still cold. The food was dull.

Nice tavern with a solid menu. Scotch Eggs and Burgers stood out. Tater tots were perfect. Friendly staff. A couple of pool tables in the midst.

The atmosphere here is very Sports Bar with a heavy lean to the bar side. Overall a very generic feel to the place.I came here because I heard they have good burgers. I ordered the Western Burger ($14). This has Cheddar cheese, thick-cut honey-cured bacon, beer battered onion rings, sweet bbq sauce. The burger was good. The meat was tender, however it was far from wow. While the meat was tender it wasn't standout in taste. So definitely above average, just not great. I upgraded the side to a side salad ($2). This time it was very ehh. Not much crunch and just boring, even for a salad. I also ordered the Scotch Eggs ($8.5). These are Hard-boiled eggs wrapped in pork sausage, coated in breadcrumbs, and fried, served withhoney mustard. These were interesting, but also kinda blah. They need something added to them with a little heat. The person I was with ordered the Black and Bleu Burger ($14). This consisted of a Blackened patty, gorgonzola crumbles, thick-cut honey-cured bacon, mayo. The Burger was declared to be okay, but bland. This was surprising for a black & blue burger. It was cooked to a perfect medium rare though.The service again was okay. It was friendly and they tried. It was just inefficient. At one point mustard was asked for and we ended up having to ask another waitress for it. However my drink refills were well done.Overall a 3 1/2 star review. I debated whether to round up or down. However there were too many things of note. So my final grade is 3 stars. Would I return? Sadly no. It is obvious this is a popular place, and maybe it was just a bad day. However there are too many choices for great burgers. This is a pass for me.
