i had called before coming and asked about a pool table. they said they technically did have one and when asked to clarify they said it wasn’t “regulation” i just thought that meant it wasnt up to competitive standards. nope. they had a miniture pool table with itty bitty balls and sticks. it was funny tho and still enjoyed the open mic they had going on. the angry crown drink was insanely good and got me very drunk. the set up for the open mic was actually pretty nice. couple of tables, two booths on each wall and a stage with a piano and all your usual set ups.

Great find! We spent the day at Liberty state park, with our 2 dogs, and wanted to find a dog friendly restaurant to dine outside. A quick google search brought us here, and we are so glad it did! Excellent food and drinks, very dog friendly and right away offered our dogs bowls of water, and outstanding atmosphere and service. The owner Tommy came to our table introduced himself and made us feel so at home! We will definitely be back.

Amazing spot, inexpensive for some delicious food! The owner, I presume, is super friendly and makes you instantly feel at home when you walk through the doors. He made a funny quip about me having hair and him not. Instantly sold me on the place from the get go. The staff is delightful and super accommodating for reasonable needs. I can’t wait to come back again.

I hosted a intimate dinner party to celebrate my birthday here. I food was good and everyone was pleased however it was difficult to nail down details with planning. I definitely feel like the owner should hire a event manager to make sure details are handled properly! Overall the party was nice . My guest and I had a good time.

This is my friends neighborhood bar. I really enjoyed how personal and friendly they were fir the exception of one blonde bar tender. Unfortunately she never greeted us and served the other guest before making her to us to see if we were being helped. I really fell in love with Buffalo wings and the blue cheese sauce. This was my second time eating there and things keep getting better. I definitely recommend this bar for game day or just to pre game. They have big tvs and clean restrooms. The service was great except for the blond bar tender but even her her lack of customer service wouldn’t stop me from coming back

I ordered the chicken wrap and fries. The wrap was good. However the fries looked old like the re-cooked, since was even burnt. That’s why I gave a 3 star due to the fries. I have a photo but unfortunately didn’t give me the option to upload.
