French fries ? Music ? Dancing ? Cocktails ? Outdoor seating has the best heat lamps, cool atmosphere. Indoor—check out the long bar, so many neat little dodads that are under a see-through thick coating (epoxy-ish layer).

Stopped in to see how to book my band at their venue and had lunch. Everything was great! Great friendly service and every bit as good if not better than drunky 2 shoes was!I'll be back soon!

This place is great. The food is really impressive, it’s basically standard pub fare but done well with some nice vegan additions. The taps are clean and the beer tastes like it. And they have music every night across a broad spectrum of genres. The counter of the main bar is worth having a drink at just so you can look at all the cool stuff shellacked in there. Add in that the owner apparently is working on restoring Beth’s Cafe to its former glory you have to love this place and ownership.

$26 cover charge for 2 to see cover band on a Friday night. No service outside had to go into the bar to order food. Food was delivered to the table. Ordered 4 tacos at $5 each and onion rings at $8. Only received three tacos and onion rings. Was charged $32 and items purchased were not listed on receipt. Went back to the bar because the math didn't add up while food was getting cold. No toilet paper in bathroom stalls before band even started playing. Left the table briefly to go out front, had chairs tipped forward to show wait staff we were coming back and the table was cleared upon our return. Was going to attach photo of receipt but it got tossed when we stepped out and the waitress cleared the table. Had to get more water and the one waitress on shift left a garbage can at end of table and told us to clear it before the band was even done playing. Small portions, overpriced food, unfriendly/inconsiderate staff, not enough staff, no transparency on purchases. Was surprised to see a vegan menu offered. Alcoholic Beverage Menu was lacking in transparency as much as the receipts were. Trying to upsell mixed cocktails and wine. Did not even know pitchers of beer were offered as it was not listed on the menu and neither were prices for optional size glasses. Recommend eating before you get there and bring your own toilet paper!

Don't be fooled by the boring name - rock n roll vibes. Two menus - dope bar food, or dope vegan/vegetarian bar food. Vibrant calendar - stumbled in on the open mic night - very eclectic. Will be back.

I love this place in theory, big supporter of music, a cool spot. The food is really hit or miss, kinda disappointing compared to the former occupant of that space. Do not try the smoked salmon rangoon.

I haven't eaten there yet, but I loved the lived music venue, which is kind of a hybrid indoor-outdoor space with heaters. There's a separate bar in a kitschy trailer for the live music area and picnic tables and stools. Both times I saw bands, it was $10 or $15. You can get food in the live music area as well. The night I came early, I saw all 3 bands. That night, it was mostly older people like me, meaning Gen X rockers, but I imagine it varies depending on the bands. The inside restaurant part is music-themed with wooden booths and tables and a bar area. Very fun place.Parking: The parking lot doesn't hold more than 10-12 cars, and the neighborhood is hopping on the weekends, so you might have to park a few streets down.

I live in the neighborhood and have been there a few times. The food we've tried has been hits and misses except for the cost - that hits. Every. Time. IMO it's pricey for what you're getting. Add in a few beers and a decent tip and owie! Mommy, that mortal wound on my checking account hurts! The attention from staff has also been hit and miss. Sometimes when you walk in folks are like, "Hey! How ya doin'? Be with you in a minute." Other times you eventually wander to find a mirror to see if you've come down with a spontaneous case of invisibility. I've seen a few good shows there - no doubt they get some great music - but generally, it's too f*cking loud. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. "If it's too loud you're too old." Bullsh#t! Seriously. I'm sitting RIGHT. THERE. In sum, if you're going for a show, eat and prefunk somewhere else and bring earplugs or you might just be dumping blood out of your ears at the end of the night.

Great small venue for live music. Staff was nice in the restaurant before the concert - food was good
