BEST PLACE to watch a game in the area and food is great. Honestly one of the best value bars in the area.

If I can leave less than 1 star I would! Don't waste your time or money. Unfriendly, dirty. And loud "regulars" are the only ones to get served. And by served I mean OVER served. OLCC better check this place out. The food is overpriced and tasteless. Not a good look for the bartenders to be trashed at the bar. Spend your money elsewhere! The fact you have to pay for to go containers made me laugh. While the owner sits on her fanny at the machines all night. Trash central!

Big fans of Pitstop trivia!!! We've been coming for the past few months, and it's a great time. Cool chill spot, not too crazy. A good selection of drink options, and a good crew of regulars. Trivia is Wednesdays at 7:00, on the dot! Definitely a great spot to hang, definitely divey. It is what you'd expect in that category. Food is okay, not outstanding but some solid options at a fair price!

This review is just for the bar area. The employees were super friendly. This place had all that you could want. Beer, a fill bar, food available, tvs with sports on and lottery games. I'd go back for those offerings.... the service really made the place.... but I want to try the food next time.

Never have I ever been to any place to eat and they ask you for a card to hold for a tab UPFRONT! Waitress ID's us and immediately after asks my boyfriend if he wants to give her a card for our "tab" . We didn't even look at the menu yet and was asked for a card. It was a very awkward exchange. My boyfriend said what if we are paying with cash?? And she said "that's fine, we just have certain rules at this bar" said in a weird tone (passive aggressive) We told her we are paying cash. As far as food. It looks really good but the flavor is not there. We got the buffalo chick Mac, potato skins and pulled pork sliders , all were okay just BLAND! Upon leaving I was watching the game and noticed two customers she brought there bill out to , non of them had a card left for a "tab". They got the bill and pulled out there card. I'm not sure if this is a race thing but i also wouldn't put it past it. it just felt and seemed weird to me . Like does this lady think we're gonna dine and dash ??? Anyways we tipped her Nicely and left , won't be back tho.

Love that you can get breakfast any time of day. Casey, the bartender, has our drinks memorized. Great atmosphere. Fun crowd! Enjoy!!

Great place to watch a game. I had breakfast and even though the place was slammed, the service was very good. Sports bar atmosphere with plenty of screens. Would like to come back and try the barbecue.

ok food, but not the place to go if you're an Oregon Duck football fan. I've been there a couple of times when both the duck and Oklahoma games are on at the same time and they have the Oklahoma game on the giant main tv screen with full sound in the big main room and relegated the Oregon game to a small screen over the bar..... ridiculous!!! Couldn't even hear the Oregon game much less find a decent seat to watch the ducks. I saw a group of six customers walk in to watch the ducks and promptly leave when they discovered that the Oklahoma game was blaring in the main room and there were no seats available around the tiny bar. Apperntly the owner loves Oklahoma...why else make such a dumb business decision?

Make a quick stop at The Pit Stop and you won't be disappointed. It's everything you're looking for in a local sports bar including some pretty reasonable daily deals like a pint of Budweiser and a shot of Bulleit bourbon for $10 on Wednesdays. A group of friends and I went for the trivia game and we had a blast. Clearly there are frequent fliers who attend because it seemed like everyone knew each other. It had that classic "Cheers" atmosphere where everyone knows your name. Better than expected and definitely on the list to go back to for another round of Last Call Trivia!

Review from a 13 year old: “it’s not as good as boxed Mac and cheese”My review: in a food town like this, how could some one have so little pride in the food they serve? Bland, uninteresting, bland, and did I mention bland?We gave this stuff to my dog, who will eat cat p**** He ate about half and then threw up. Boy, if a garbage dog rejects it, it’s bad.

Ordered take out from here, 3 pulled pork sliders and garlic parm tots and I was surprised at how good the food was. The pulled pork sliders were so flavorful and juicy, the tots were great as well. Definitely eating here again

The Mac and Cheese is so bland, no flavor. Even the Bacon isn't much of taste. The fries are good, but the main dish is so bland.

Our waitress is really what made the experience spectacular. She was a hustler, very polite and accommodating with a great sense of humor. Drinks were well made with a few traditional specials that I would rank above average. Other restaurants tend to give you the equivalent of fermented orange juice and call it a mimosa. I was not thrilled with the food but definitely open to giving the menu another try. I may have had very high expectations based on a friends review. That said... if you are looking for a place with a lively atmosphere to watch a game... this is a great option.
