Great atmosphere with outdoor seating, the interior has a wonderful old time feel to it. The servers all check on you, but on busy days you may have to flag them down and they will attend your needs right away. The food is great too. They rotate different breweries around the country and we had some brews from Hawaii and another location, they were very good. Definitely stop by if you’re in town. Ohio State Buckeyes are definitely welcome.

Love this place. My favorite placed to get wings in Durham area. The wing pieces are large, flavorful and moist.

No frills, classic pub vibe. Clearly a local hangout. Extensive draft beer selection, and humanely sourced and delicious menu. Pro-tip: sub fried banana peppers for your side! ?Vegetarian options: Veggie burger patty available!

I've rated this 5 stars for years. I brought in some friends to have drinks, waiting on food. My Fig /brie came w/ Steak in the sandwich - miscommunication , the cooks are expedient and pro back there. (Packed kitchen at night!) The cooks, Robert, Bar - Britton - same staff for years.The Wooden nickel is great in the day or night. Very friendly.- I stopped eating steak (red meat) in '84 while over doing it nightly working at Crook's Corner. Those burgers made great sloppy joes using Bill Neal tomato sauces.

Meh the place is cool but ordered online and the food took 15 minutes additional than it said and then the fries were cold and the only modification I asked for (no mayo) was ignored. The tots were delicious though we would get those again for sure..
