Unassuming appearance from the street, glad I went in. Food quality was top notch. Service was on point. Menu had a couple surprises and I loved the Sloppy Joe. Rotating beer menu was nice.

Excellent food and service! They were accommodating for small kids, even though it’s not meant for kids. Fish and chips were excellent, same with the Ruben. We will be back. (Note: fish and chips photo is missing a piece, comes with three.)

This is a fantastic, chill dive bar downtown. Visit before/after the Guthrie as it's only 4ish blocks away. We went on a Sunday when Mary must bartend. Special is the Mary burger, and more importantly the "Mary sauce". People are getting this as gifts the sauce is that good! Solid selection of beer including my fav Fresh Squeezed. Amazing service, even when busy. This is my new favorite downtown spot. Thank you, Mary!!!
