Had dinner with friends and found a spot to sit right away. Bar was busy and 2 bartender but they also had to play the role of waitress. They did a very good job. Fish were small but hot, french fries were cold, potatoe salad was ok and the coleslaw was good. We ordered appetizers but they came with the dinner instead of beforemaking the table too full to actually enjoy everything.

Disappointing! I arranged for a group of 10 people to meet for lunch on a Saturday. The website said they were open for lunch. When we arrived, they were clearly closed, with no intention of being open anybtime soon. We had multiple vehicles arriving, and had to wait until everyone was in the parking lot, to decide on an alternate plan. It was 1:30 before we were able to actually have lunch.This could all have been avoided if the website had been updated with the current information.

When you pull into the parking lot you question your decision and when you walk through the door you haven't been reassured -- but sit in a stool and very soon you will see what a great place this is. Great service and food. What did you want afterall??

I’m not into bashing local, small businesses online, don’t like to be this guy and I have better things to do; however, it’s a day later and I’m still pissed about how we were treated last night, it felt like I was completely invisible.Place wasn’t that busy, got a table right away, had a pocket full of cash, couldn’t buy a beer or taco in this place to save my life.After they wouldn’t come to our table, I stood by the bar for 15 minutes, totally ignored by both bartenders. I assume a “regular” walked in through the front door, stood next to me, they handed him a Pabst immediately, without him even asking for it, right over the top of me, and kept going.If you’re not a regular, you won’t get served here.I will never be back.

Taco Tuesday & Friday Fish Fry is a must! Amazing prices compared to everywhere else. Bartenders are awesome as well!

Called in at 3:30 for a pickup at 5. Showed up for my order and there was ONE person serving drinks, taking orders, and handling the phone. An employee came out from the kitchen at one point during my 30 MINUTE wait to take shots with customers.Terrible experience overall. Cold food, ignored by overworked staff, and late food after calling 1.5 hours in advance.Will not be back.

Amazingly delicious fish fry!

Parking: Gravel lot with potholes and uneven sidewalks. Watch your step. Only one low table. Call ahead if you're disabled.

Took in a Friday fishfry at this small, unique, neighborhood bar/eating place with just a few tables. Casual, informal, friendly, with welcoming locals, good food, informal servers, A place where it feels good to help by cleaning off your own table afterwards...which we did! ? Unfortunately our Old Fashions were not made correctly, which was disappointing.
