Great place to go if you want a drink or some good food. I’ve been in a few times and know most of the staff by name and they know me. It’s a great little comfort place and I highly recommend it! Carla is awesome! Taylor’s cool and great to vibe with, and Jordyn can be cool too when she’s not too busy. Cooks are awesome and friendly and love to chat, definitely makes the place feel like a friend’s house instead of a business.
This is one of my favorite places to eat and hang out. The employees are awesome. Robert is the best cook. Taylor is awesome. Everyone is awesome here. Food is great!! Such a friendly atmosphere.
We just love this place! The bartenders are always a hoot, and so friendly! Tonight we had Carla waiting on us and she was great! There’s always good music playing, the atmosphere is very casual and laid back, and it’s got to be the cleanest bar I’ve ever been to. Can’t wait to come back!
Service is fantastic, very quick even when a little busy, Food is also good, and the beer is cold. Decent variety of food and beers / liquor along with Coke products. It is a very chill atmosphere, and a polite staff that listen. For a hole in the wall small town sports bar, it is worth visiting. Also ask about the shake-a-day challenge.
Service was excellent, Jordyn was amazing. Jordyn came over to the table and waited on us with a great smile and personality. Food was delicious, we had the BLT and Turkey Club.
