Customer Reviews
It was 53$ for 2 hot dogs and 2 pulled pork nachos let me just tell you the nachos the meat was cold and the cheese was cold the hot dogs were hard to the point my kids couldn’t eat them one of the nachos had a bug in it down right not happy with the place
I didn't eat here, only drank, so no opinion of the food. It was really easy going with bikers and "regular" folk at the wooden picnic tables side-by-side. The bartenders all were quick to fill your drink order and handy with a smile. The day I was there they had a pretty good band. And don't expect the Ritz Carlton -- it's a biker bar: cinder block walls lined with antlers, taxidermied animal heads, beer signs, and for some reason a scythe and a boat wheel on the ceiling (possibly appealing to both the pirate and farmer crowd). There were a couple boss bikes indoor, and the building doors were open wide and fans blowing -- no AC -- and a trike out back. PS no indoor plumbing... two port-a-potties out back. In today's 98 degree heat I told a woman I would give her 20 bucks to go to the bat
I decided to give this establishment a try, but unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The service was lacking, as the waitress seemed disengaged, and overall, the experience felt unorganized. The food quality was disappointing—specifically, the pulled pork nachos, which had an unpleasant taste and did not meet the standard I would expect from a sit-down restaurant. Given its location and atmosphere, this place has the potential to become a standout biker bar in the River Bend area, but it would require significant improvements in both service and food quality. I hope to return in the future to see positive changes.
Very comfortable atmosphere, met the owner and was welcomed like it was our own patio, service was great made our group feel like family especially considering the purpose of our visit for a celebration of life!! Definitely recommend it!
We shared the pulled pork nachos and they were excellent. The music (Wicked Mojo) outside was rocking with all my favorites 😍. Cool place, lots of parking
