Don’t waste your money or your calories. The food was pathetic and expensive. We ordered a French dip that was bland. A Buffalo chicken wrap which was just hot sauce in a wrap. The onion rings were fried too long. Nothing was made with any quality. The beers were over priced, but at least they were cold. The only good thing about this place was the name. You should walk past it to a better restaurant. I wish we did.
$9 for a miller lite, be prepared to be price gouged..... 45 min wait for a reuban
Food is terrible. Extremely overpriced… draft beer for $14 per! It’s only redeeming quality is that it’s right on main st with outdoor seating but don’t do it!
$14 for a draft beer. Get over yourselves. We’re not inside a major league ballpark. You’re a dive bar with the benefit of a decent location.
This place is not very good at all. Much better places around for cheaper! I would not go back to this place
$23 for a small wrap with 4 onion rings . They nickel and dime you . Extra charge to use your credit card. 2 thumbs down for this place
Oh my god so good! I SCARFED down the food before I could take a photo… Oh my god!!! Service was 10/10, hats off to everyone here. Pretzels were amazing. They offered me extra sauces without me needing to ask, wow, this exceeded my expectations by miles, and I was expecting a lot! Hats off to Sarah as the best bartender ever. Waitress Megan was so kind. I felt like family. A shame I live in Texas. Was in town for the baseball tournament with my husband, wow. Love him. Fairly priced food and he paid for it, what a gentleman.
You will find better food at your local baseball league concessions. Avoid.
Great food and service!! Can’t wait to come back⚾️
We were seated and waited over 10 minutes before the server even came over to our table. At least 3 other tables came after us and waited so long they just got up and left as nobody ever came to their table. My husband ordered the pulled pork sliders, but they were out of pulled pork. Our meals came out over 20 minutes after we ordered and our appetizer was delivered with our meals. The food was very lackluster, the waitress never came over to check on us. The only time she came to our table was to bring our bill which at that point we had to ask for refills on our sodas. We left a 15% tip which was overly generous and definitely not deserved, I would give 0 stars for service but that wasn't an option. Don't waste your time or money on this place. Very disappointing.

This was just a rough experience all around. It's pretty obvious that they don't have any sort of system for their servers to follow. It was the worst table service I've ever experienced.
The server took our order after about 5 minutes, brought our drinks, then proceeded to try to give our food to two separate tables because she had no idea where it belonged. Then we didn't see her again until it was time for the bill. It wasn't even all that busy at the time. I took our drinks up to the bar for refills. And when I did I saw our server and a few others just hanging out in the back part of the restaurant.
The food was fine, not ecceotional, but there are far better meals to be had within 100 feet. I had the BBQ pork sandwich. It was pretty bland and relied way too heavily on the sauce. I'm 90% sure that the majority of the menu is frozen food. It's slow, chaotic, and all around frustrating. For the price, you can go pretty much anywhere in town and have a much better experience. I try to be supportive of local businesses, but trust me, you can do better elsewhere.

Worst service ever. My waitress is not there most the time, spending her time cellphoning in the backstore or sweeping the terrace. What looks like the owner just got in with a Ryoby weed eater in the box
I'm still waiting for maybe ordering a second beer. Probably if I walk away no one would notice that the tab was paid. Just wow...
At least my waitress was smiling and efficent the time she was there.
No idea how the food was, never got to that point. Seated immediately but waited nearly 30 minutes with no one stopping by our table to check on us. Even after pointing out that we'd been waiting awhile, a couple waitresses walked by and served other tables.
We left.
