5 stars all across the board. Love this place i have always enjoyed coming to eat and drink hanging out with friends and family. My kids even love the place. The staff are all amazing and the owners are some of the best people I've ever met and got to know. The live music is always good and the food is out of this world amazing with great prices as well. I will continue to show my support to this local spot.

may not be advertised well? I don't care for the decor. Staff is always kind, I don't drink but when I did the drinks were ok. Usually pretty empty. I go for karaoke sometimes. Food is decent, very nice stage. Can't really catch the vibe here.

Go to this place eat their food have their drinks an absolutely outstanding establishment the atmosphere is welcoming the people are welcoming the service is phenomenal and the food tastes great. Kitchen was closed and I just came in and got side food chicken strips and cheese sticks and fries and everything was so amazing. It tasted like a restaurant food and not just like late night bar food is so good And I didn't tell them this when I came in but I went to the emergency room in an ambulance this morning because I have an autoimmune deficiency and my job has been workplace harassing me on a level that is literally wearing my body down and it is very psychologically and emotionally abusive the way that they are lying and gaslighting and I can't do anything about it and I amworking is so hard my body finally just can't keep up and I got sick with infection and fever so bad I finally called the ambulance when I got back to my hotel they had to literally put an IV of antibiotic straight into my system. Natural I left the hospital came back to my hotel room went to sleep I woke up cuz I work nights I woke up and it was like midnight I called place after place after place and nobody was serving food anymore and then I called the watering hole and she's like yeah we'll serve for about another 30 minutes I was like sweet I'm 5 minutes away Google maps decided to take me on a roundabout like scenic route I think Google maps drinks on the side and doesn't tell anybody so it took me like 15 minutes to get thereI get there and they made me food they gave me drink and they were so f****** pleasant like their customer service is an example for the rest of the world to look on and practice from thank you so much for being alive you guys the food was great I know the picture I posted kind of looks like David hasselhoff eating a cheeseburger but it's cuz I'm tired I just woke up again pull my food back out reheated it tastes great thank you so much again for being alive

It's a bar. Food prices are comparably reasonable. Food arrived timely. Drinks are cold. I was there during the day, no kereoke or band. Was laid back.

Stopped here on our way through town on a road trip. Everyone was incredibly friendly, our bartender was singing karaoke while making our drinks and she was killing it. What an amazing stop, it turned out to be one of the highlights of our road trip. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

Unless you are over the age of 62 and looking for the opposite of a good time, do not come here. Especially if you have a family with small children because despite saying so on their website, they are NOT a family friendly restaurant. It has a while since I've received such disgraceful service, my children and I walked around for over 5 minutes looking for a clean table while 2 waitress completely ignored our very existence and didn't clear any empty tables. The bathrooms were disgusting and a woman who represented herself as the "half owner not just a bartender" who smelled very strongly of alcohol and was seemingly antagonizing an African American customer in hopes of getting a reaction and being able to kick them and their family out. Absolute trailer trash behavior and Atmosphere. I am happy to report though, that we will NEVER be back there and will tell my associates who frequent the area to STEER CLEAR. ** RESPONSE TO OWNER: although you were not there, there was someone claiming to represent your establishment there ( a short, old white woman with dark hair) and if you would have actually checked your cameras you would have seen what I saw with my own eyes: that older woman who reeked of alcohol every time she past me, who kept stepping towards and arguing with a black woman with her large group of children saying things like "they need to be out by 9 and we will have you kicked out" even though it was 7pm and signs posted everywhere. The woman even had to tell the waiter to stop being aggressive as there was children around. You would have seen her husband step in between worker and his wife to finally get the worker to leave. You would have seen The family then sat waiting for a waitress or a menu and playing pool for over 30 minutes surrounded by empty dirty tables and when they received zero attention, they calmly left with their kids. Not a good look at all and actually made me very uncomfortable to witness coupled with the fact you, as the owner got on here and lied, me POST THE VIDEO AND AUDIO THEN!! anyone I know will NEVER be back to this hole in the ground so don't you worry. I hope you grow from this and continue to serve your community of all colors, better. Good day. ☺️
