We went for lunch on a Monday morning and was not busy at all. Our waiter was running the bar and serving our table and was very attentive! We had been a few years ago for their wing sampler and was happy to see it still on the menu! 25 wings with up to five different sauces. They were delicious! Everyone else enjoyed their food (burgers and sandwiches).

We loved everything about the experience we had yesterday when we stopped for dinner. Great service, delicious food that came out quickly, and a relaxed spot to hang out in. I knew going in that the wings were a must-try and I was still surprised by how good they were; crispy but still moist and flavorful without having to be drowned in sauce. Loved the loaded fries too! Burger was juicy and the mac and cheese I added for my side will be the next day's lunch. Highly recommend stopping by to try it for yourself!

First visit and the food was spot on. Burgers were amazing, slightly over cooked for our taste but honestly juicy, thick burgers. My husband had a burger with pork belly on it, the burger was massive. Fresh cut fries and Mac & Cheese both great. The fries were crispy, hot and reminded me of homemade fries my grandmother used to make. The bartender/waitress/ host, she does it all and does it well. The place was pretty busy and she managed to answer each call, table, guest and order with the ease. I’m impressed by the overall experience.
