Am in town for work and this place was recommended. Cozy spot with a fun vibe. Had the French Dip and it was the best I have ever had in my life. I am writing this while still here and am full, but am still debating ordering another French Dip to go.

Best bar in town. Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, good beer, and not many students. For food, the cheeseburger is great.

I was in town for a football game and decided to stop in after seeing the great reviews online. When I walked in, I honestly wasn't sure I was in the right spot—I thought I'd been punked!
The ordering system is not ideal, and the line to order can grow very long, very quickly. However, once you get through that hurdle, everything else is a wonderful surprise! I ordered the cheese curds (out-of-this-world amazing!), a burger (good, but normal), and a Blacksburgian (definitely not for the timid!). Even with the game-day crowd, the service was excellent, especially from Michael. He was super attentive and helpful, and made us feel like truly special customers. I would definitely recommend this as a must-try if you're in town and looking for a truly local experience!
Chill spot to play darts, watch sports, hang out with friends, & have drinks

Great pub for us townies and adult visitors. The staff are always wonderful. Food recs: fish and chips, burger, and fried chicken sandwich are all consistently good.

Usually, it’s a good experience, but if you guys have a line, maybe your bouncer/bar backs shouldn’t be on their phone! Rude and unacceptable even on the the first Friday back.

I can't speak to the quality of the food, service, or atmosphere. What I can say is that after driving 20 minutes to get here I discovered that there is ZERO parking within a reasonable walking distance for a 72 y.o. Unless yo live near the place don't go.
Good bar atmosphere but political

gyro is unbelievably good i cant stop thinking about it,,,,
A coworker and I are in town from WI for work for a bit and are just missing our little dive-y bars. This one will do, though it's missing the crabby old men, bar dice, and the blue collar guys coming straight from the jobsite...and the booze selection lol. But the service here is great and it has a more bar atmosphere than the restaurants around. We will be back!
Stopped by Square5 on a work trip and had a great experience. Thank you to the owner John and his team for their hospitality and an outstanding Cuban sandwich. I’ll definitely be back!
Loved it! Me and my friend caught up over some drinks. Drinks were great, fries were great, bartender was great, and the atmosphere was splendid. I highly recommend! <3
Do not go there for food. We did and it was a mistake. Now I'm sure if I was drinking and not worried about when my food will get there it would have been better, but that was not the case. Server/door security was absolutely rude. We didn't know the QR code (that you can barely see on the bar) was the menu, and he was rude about it. That is besides the point, It took OVER an hour and a half to get cheese fries and a side salad to get to our table, it also was just decent tasting. I'm just glad they had vinegar for the fries. They were not busy with food items either. If you just want to drink Sure it may be a good place but not for food.
