This place is not as good as it used to be. We waited 45 minutes for our meals and when we questioned why it was taking so long, we were told it was that they were really busy, and the place was only half full. The food and drinks were mediocre at best.

First time being here and ordered a drink of their menu called a sour something…can’t actually remember. The woman actually poured lemon juice from a large container, so it wasn’t fresh not to mention it was ridiculously sour. Decided to order nachos and weirdly the chicken is grounded up exactly like ground beef which was not appetizing at all. The beans was actually on the bottom of the nachos and it was basically a caked patty of beans so I know that wasn’t fresh. Our server was no different from a robot- no emotion no manners nothing that had me excited to be there. Not going back ever again. I’ll spend money elsewhere.

Our first time here. The food was delicious, the service was great but it is not a quiet place. I guess the acoustics are set up for bands? It is the same at a lot of places. The noise level can be too much.

One of the best Steaks I ever had. New Zealand mussels were tender. Our server was very very nice. The food could have been presented better only because it was not hot enough. I would eat there again for sure. Would like to go on a night that's full of people and live music.

It was great. Our waitress, Christina I think, was awesome. Food was good and didn't take forever to get. Great experience.

It’s a bar that also serves food. The food is passable but certainly not gourmet. It’s great that they support the music industry with live acts on weekends.

Fun little spot. Service was a little slow but it was st patricks day so take it with a grain of salt. Fun spot to hang
A good, hometown American style pub/restaurant that's not a chain, so stop going to Millers, or Applebees or whatever. Family owned and operated by locals who are there every day, the place has a slight twist on your typical American grub, and those twists are very good with an atmosphere to match. Burgers, Pierogies, Mac and Cheese with Panko, some solid Italian options, and a Louisiana Chicken Pasta my kid ordered that we all couldn't get enough of. Solid, friendly, filling and if you're lucky, you'll get to meet Batman the family dog (not sure of his schedule, but he loves hugs). Highly recommended!

Came Sunday evening. Fun, neighborhood atmosphere and great pub food. Owned by a local family and we love to shop local.
