Love this place, patio year round (covered, heated) and friendly indoor space. Local hangout for the area. Can bring food from the carts outside. Don't forget to check out the to go beer/wine as well as the taps. They also have non alcoholic options.

Stopped into this place after a trunk or treat. There was a silly back and forth between my friend and the server. She had been inside about 30 minutes before and when she asked how he was doing he lightheartedly said something to the effect of "about the same as I was 30 minutes ago" to which she replied "shhhh" (as in, don't mention that I was just here and came back) and this clearly intoxicated patron interjected herself into the situation and rudely said something along the lines of "that was rude, I'll not allow you to shush my bartender in my bar" she carried on for a bit in this way, reiterating she'd not allow such behavior and how rude my friend was...and she absolutely didn't allow explanation - as I said, she appeared to be intoxicated. I'm not sure if she actually was the owner, or just a regular -- but she referred to this as being HER bar several times - so I assume probably the owner - I feel she had some pull, especially since the server didn't intervene and seemed pretty uncomfortable with the situation. Maybe his significant other? I don't know. I chose not to purchase a beverage as intended. I was very put off. My friend tried to explain but it was futile as this woman clearly was looking for some sort of altercation that didn't exist. The whole thing was off putting and I'd definitely not go back nor would I recommend this place. My friend did actually purchase her drink -- it was after already purchasing one earlier and my partner had already purchased his. I didn't patronize the establishment after being treated so rudely when the initial exchange was jovial. No. Not a place I'd go to unwind. Hard pass for me.

Delightful oasis in the middle of nowhere.
Bright, clean and comfortable.
Fantastic selection of taps and a few refrigerators with an assortment of bottles and cans for there or to go.
The food truck outside is fantastic too.
The staff is delightful and are the type that you would chat all night with if you could.
Amazing upstairs lounge area and great covered outside seating area.
I highly recommend The Tipsy Whale.

I would highly recommend this place. The staff were so friendly and considerate I felt like I was back in my local in England. Great beer selection and the pop up food selection was fab too.

Tipsy Whale is a great place to get a drink. Lots of beer and cider on tap...and if you prefer wine, there's a great selection as well. Great outdoor seating and a gem of a second story to watch your favorite sports or to play some board games. Food is available from one or more food trucks on site.

Arts and crafts meeting
Took a craft class here in the space upstairs - the space upstairs is awesome (just a really loud hand dryer in the bathroom that made us ask if someone was vacuuming). I do not drink but they had root beer and a non alcoholic fridge of items and had a great set up!

Cool little tap room hidden in a a business park. Great beer/cider options on tap and in cans. You can but a full bag of tortilla chips and local made Salas at a decent price. Food truck wasn't open when we went.

Good bar selection. Food only from food trucks and the selection was limited
One of my favorite bars I’ve ever been to! Such a cool low key spot to have some beers and good conversation.
