One of our favorite Friday night places to hang out. The food is great and the music video bingo is my favorite way to end a week!

Honestly, this review is just about their pretzels. They are the best pretzels I ever had! I drive about 20-30 minutes just for that!!! Amazing

Went around 12:30pm on a Saturday, and it was extremely tasty. The food took a while, but it was well worth the wait. We tried onion rings, cheese curds, wings, the pretzel bread stick, deep fried meatballs, the char-grilled burger, the chef salad, the Mac and cheese, the potato chips, and the 1/4 lb hotdog, and it was all some of the best food we'd ever had. The waitress was also extremely nice, and I'd imagine it's a fun place to drink and eat later in the night. I highly recommend! Just know your food will take at least 30-45 minutes to come out.

Just basic bar food but we had a really fun time. All the people were welcoming and fun. I'd go back if I was in the area...and it was game day.

Random stop and we are super impressed. Great food (grilled tenderloin and stuffed burger) plenty of craft brews, good liquor selection and the owner and bartender make great company. Will definitely be back.

Great little community of Karaoke dinners on Fridays! The Dj was super friendly, and although they seemed understaffed in the servers department, the owner was really nice. Good appetizers and strong drinks. Will be coming back for sure.
