Randomly came here for trivia night, pleasantly surprised by our experience. We didn’t know anything about this place but decided to try it out. We ordered a few things off happy hour menu and they came out better and more than we expected! Would definitely come back again!

This place is a gem.

The place overall is good it was not crowded. It is kid friendly. On the other hand it definitely has very limited menu so not like a dinner spot.

Well on Thursday they have a fantastic burger special with fries and the burger is off the hook.

Also the mac and cheese is fantastic. And they also have a pool table which is cool. And a lot of different craft beers it looks like as well.

I was so darn hungry that I from traveling that I forgot to take pictures of the food but it was well presented in delicious.

Kara is an amazing server. The lights are a little low, but look at this amazing double patty burger. $10 on burger night. And they run a happy hour. Makes for a great Thursday. This burger is crazy good. I know a place that does $6, but this is worth every penny. Not super greasy. Bun isn't soggy. Fries are perfect. No notes! And if you read my other stuff I usually try to add some things that could be done better. Staff was great. Food was great. Prices were great. Selectiin of beer is great. Timing was great. And Karaoke night is pretty fun (different night.) I'm sure I sound like I'm fan boying, but as always, I don't get paid for any reviews. They 100% earned it. Good job!

I got the fish meal and half way through my meal I found a piece of hair in my food i mentioned this to the waiter and he left my food there and said he’d make me a new piece of fish then brought me my bill and charged me full price even though i didn’t finish my meal

We were looking for a local low key spot to grab dinner after enjoying Winterfest. We walked in, weren’t greeted and stood at the front until someone realized we were there. After grabbing a seat in an almost empty room, it took another five minutes to get water. The appetizers were the same prices as the meals. The menu sounded great but when the food came out it was hard to choke down. My daughter got the French Dip and Mac and cheese. Mac and cheese was decent but the meat tasted overdone and over seasoned. I had the Sweet and Spicy Toasted Cheese. The bread was perfectly toasted but the cheese inside was still cold, and there were raw slices of jalapeños. There was so much aioli it overtook the flavor of the sandwich. The brussel sprouts were very good. The service was also a bust, we didn’t get straws, or refills. To top things off, there is an extra charge for cc vs cash.

Parking: Parking lot around back, spots are kind of tight.

An absolute Gem! The food was so good. Best chicken wrap I've had in ages. The portions were good and the prices match. We tried them last weekend and we're definitely coming back. A++++

Great, low key, locals place for food food and drinks and even a game or two of pool. Separate, speak-easy style smokers lounge with two pool tables set up in the back of the building. One pool table on the non smoking bar and restaurant section as well.

I went to this incredibly relaxing and chill vibed place after spending time at the nearby hospital. The bartender made my night and the food and drinks were fantastic. I can’t recommend this local gem more. They have a great outdoor patio as well.

We went on Trivia night. The food was O.K. The game moved too slowly. The wait staff was friendly and attentive.

Parking: About 10 spots next to restaurant otherwise search the side streets.
