“Great place! Bartenders are super awesome. Great crowd too! And pool. LJ Ariel, Not the best.. She doesn’t honor “first come first serve” idea during karaoke. I got lectured for signing up for a song after I finished one.? (It’s not my fault no one signed up) She Puts whoever she wants up. So that’s a bummer… But still a great place to grab a drink and socialize!!!“

“The Phily Cheese Steak sandwich was delicious. So were the fries. Low key - we were there at lunch with our grandson - and it was easy to hear and to visit with each other. It's near our home, a bonus. It's not the dive that we remember from 20 years ago (we're slow to give bad experiences a second chance when there are so many options in town.) We'll go for lunch again and take some friends with us.“

“The atmosphere was just right for us. Not too young a crowd and not too old. It wasn't overly crowded and the place was clean. They had a great band playing with a variety of songs. A small dance floor that many people gave a spin on. We loved it! The drinks were well made with average pricing. We did not get any food, but we'll be back to try. They had some lottery machines in the back too. The service was excellent and very attentive. Our drinks did not go dry. It's just a great place to hang out and enjoy yourselves.“

It was really awesome sitting at the bar and being able to watch sports up close. The food was pretty darn good. I would also recommend this place because the price wasn't half bad either.
