Pretty good brewery and bar food. Had a grilled chicken sandwich, kind of hard to mess that up. Pretzel app had 2 huge pretzels, Friends destroyed them quick, must have been good. They enjoyed their meals too. Only draw back, I asked the waitress for a little help on the beers they brew and got a deer in the headlight look. Menu didn't have descriptions about their beers and my back was to the rotating screen with the descriptions. Got lucky and didn't get an IPA for the first one. Tried a few couple more. Good beer.

The beer is delicious and the food is too. Friendly atmosphere with a friendly staff. Wait staff provided good recommendations from the menu, which had a nice selection of good old American food.

My girlfriend and I stopped here after hiking all day. I got the Crispy Chicken Sammie but it was not a sandwich, and not really anything besides a salad. It came on a flattened hoagie roll but was piled so high you couldn’t even properly eat it. I tried to but 80% of contents fell right out. I ended up using a fork and my fingers to pick it apart off my plate. My girlfriend got the Veggie Burger and said it wasn’t as dry as most places. We got Love in the Mountains cocktail that was very nice, and she also enjoyed an NRB L.I.T.

Would be nice if the had more regular beers. Not everyone likes craft beers. Bun was burnt and so was the bacon on my burger. Waitress never asked if we wanted refills or anything after the meal arrived.

This is my 3rd time eating here, always after hiking. Generally, after long hikes most anything tastes good! However, I will say every time I’ve eaten here the food has been very “meh.” It reminds me of the days I worked fast food and we would keep food in warmers. We had cheese curds and they were “warm,” but not hot enough where the cheese was melted. As fast as they bring the food out, I’m pretty confident that’s what they are doing, just letting the food sit in warmers. We also sat outside since we had our dog, it was chilly that day so we asked if they would turn the heaters on- they said they hadn’t been on for about 2 years. Huh?!
Finally, when they brought our food I asked for plates and napkins. The kitchen guy who brought the food out acted like it was a major inconvenience.
I keep wanting to give this place a chance because it’s a local spot…but they consistently miss the mark for me!

The brisket was very tasty with thier BBQ sauce. My wife got the Cuban sandwich with the gluten free bun. She enjoyed it very much. We hope to be back soon!

We decided to eat dinner here because it had a good rating and was dog friendly but we were far from impressed.
We were sat at a table that had not been cleaned and had to ask the waitress to clean it. They already had water bowls for the dogs lined up at the tables outside, so that was nice. My boyfriend ordered a drink that didn't come out until halfway through our food and it didn't even fill the cup. The picture is how it came out. We both ordered the boneless wings and the sauce was good but they tasted like McDonald's chicken nuggets--fake and spongy. They didn't even come with carrots and celery like most wings do. Maybe the other food is good but steer clear of the wings.

After hiking all day we came into town to eat. The service was great and so was the atmosphere. We also loved that we could bring out dog and there were plenty of water bowls. The food however was not so good. The chicken wasn't chicken it looked like a sponge and it did not taste very good. The marinade was good. Maybe if I had gotten something different it would be a completely different review.
