We loved this place. Just looking for a beer and a sandwich close to the airport. Nicki was excellent. She put our game on the tv. She recommended the Philly cheese sandwich. It was really good. The beer was extremely cold

I took my sons (10 and 13 yo) here for dinner the night before we flew out on an international flight. They loved the food and the pool table. On the surface, prob not the best place to bring children, but everyone was very friendly. Bar tender was an absolute legend. I’ll def take them back in 11 and 8 years, respectively. Oh my wife came along too. A fantastic lady and a pretty good sport. Dubs.

Kid-friendliness: Prob should NOT have a kids bday party here.
