Food and beer were good. But if you're not a local, forget about getting good service!

I initially went to try this place with my husband one afternoon. Even though only one table was currently seated it took the person a long time to acknowledge us and then they proceed to seat us under the stairs... first let me say the photos make this place seem like it's better and newer than the actual reality. The carpet is filthy, the table had a sticky film over it and the place smelled of vomit, mold, and mildew put together. The guy who sat us was apathetic when engaging with us but all of a sudden personable when interacting with the only other table there. We decided to leave and go elsewhere. I can deal with poor service but with the filth and smell, we were not taking any chances.

Great casual place with lots of local microbrew beers and pizza varieties.

We got the Thunderbird Pie, which was recommended after I asked Gemini (Google's AI) what the most recommended dishes were. This pizza pie did not disappoint. I also paired this with the Chinook IPA - a fabulous beer made in Kearney, NE.

Service was amazing, provided by Brittany. Very casual feel and nice place to relax and recap the day. They also have specials every day, as well as a daily happy hour from 4-6 pm, so be on the lookout for these.

The only reason I gave four stars instead of five is because they don't have a dessert menu, which would have been the icing on the cake.

Got Cream Soda and Spinach Artichoke Dip. Chips came from a bag. Dip tasted like it was a pre made mix. Cream soda was good though.

If you ever go to thunderhead you have to check out nik and hunter in the kitchen. They do an excellent job at their job, and there gyatts are skibidi. I recommend the cheese sticks.

My wife placed an order Saturday night which came out to be $132.91. The person she placed the order with said it would be 20 minutes. I waited 10 minutes before leaving my house. I'm about 20 minutes away. I know that because last week she placed an order for $104.00 and they said it would be 25 minutes so I left my house 15 minutes later. Anyway, I get there' pay the bill at 5:13 pm. They said it would be a few minutes. I waited near the bar and other customer were coming in and picking up their food before me. A family of 5 came in, sat at a table and got this food before I got mine. At 5:57 pm, they brought my food to me. I know that because I looked at my cellphone for the time. I was there waiting 43 minutes not including the time I stayed at home and drove there. The food wasn't even hot. I don't mind waiting but if you told my wife it was going to be over an hour then she would have told me. For a loyal customer who spent over 234 dollars in 2 weeks I don't think it's good business practice. My loyalty account number ends with 1786 if you want to reach contact me. If not, I'm not going to be a repeat customer.

Parking: there was parking near the entrance

Not many food options, but the pizza is excellent--Thunder Pie is very good. Beer is always good.
