All youll ever need in a pubbargrub spot. Bartenders were very attentive and a great crowd despite it being the afternoon. Large selection on tap and all the local beers were delicious. Menu looked very appealing despite not ordering.

Love this casual bar setup. Feel relaxing coming in here, and the servers were friendly. Have not tried their food yet but will come back to tast the food.

Really awesome spot we caught the Super Bowl here in a big group. Taelyr, our server was nothing shy of excellent. Food was flavorful and well seasoned. Bottomless fires were a big plus, too. Will absolutely be making a return.

Better than Altitude. Great food. Outstanding service. And fantastic drinks.

I ordered Tenders and fries they were good , but they cost 18 in the store and 11 on door dash was also a long wait time , even though the place was not busy on a weekday about 3pm

Great service and an awesome outdoor seating area. I only had drinks while here and they were great. The server is what made it 5 stars. You set yourself and plenty of cool seating.

Love coming here for a quick bite, probably one of my favorite places to come and grab a classic combo grilled cheese and some soup. I tried their broccoli and cheddar this round and was really good. Havent had a chance to get a bread ...
