This spot perfectly blends dive bar vibes with a modern country house feel, creating a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that somehow makes great use of a smaller space. It never feels cramped—just comfortable and intentional.
The prices were fair, especially considering how bold and well-executed the flavors were. The real standout was the garlic Sriracha wings—an easy 10/10. I’m serious about my wings needing a solid crunch, and these absolutely delivered. Crispy, saucy,...

Really have enjoyed my visits here. The wings were fine, and I had their quesadilla, which was an interesting take on the dish. I've also been told their pizza is pretty good as well.

Everytime I've been, I sat at the bar and had a good conversation with a stranger. Quality 3rd spaces like this that create a welcoming atmosphere are rare, and the local is a gem in that regard.

We got the fish fry and tried all 3 of the fish. It was okay. Not great, the fish was almost not crispy and a bit bland. The potato pancakes were soo good. The cheese curds were amazing! No breading so gluten free, we will be back just for those. The drinks were also very yummy. It was so busy, but the waitress was very friendly and still managed to check in. We will be back
