My husband and I ate here last night for bacon week. Our food was fantastic! We had the Piggy balls, Full rack of ribs wrapped in bacon and the Bacon explosion. So good and tons of food!! We also had bacon inspired mixed drinks. I had the bacon bloody Mary and my husband had the bacon old fashioned. They didn't skimp on the alcohol in either. So much so my server brought me extra tomato juice. Other than the strong drinks we enjoyed ourselves. We will definitely go back!!

We have been here three times. The food is excellent. Friendly servers. They were very busy last night so a bit of a wait, not too bad though, but they put us at a high table. I have the knees of a 90 year-old and the manager knew I was uncomfortable so he got me a little stool for my feet which was very sweet. Made my dining experience better. I highly recommend this place. Very nice! Of course we will go again! Great hamburgers too!! :)

Luckily we went here on wing night. $1 per smoked wing was well worth it. The Heart attack burger may quite possibly bring on a heart attack. Grilled cheese with a burger in the middle, and some nice size fries on the side. The Honey Mustard Pretzel Chicken Salad was good. Not quite amazing but good. The beer is what stole the show here. Fresh, filled with flavor and served ice cold. The variety of beer was a nice surprise too. No matter who you are, you are bound to find a flavor that you’ll enjoy. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were all very attentive, upbeat and energetic.

Great service! Good food & large portions. Buffalo chicken cheese steak was good and the wife got the pretzel chicken with homemade mustard sauce. Yum! Even the chicken cheese steak had a real cheese sauce not melted or cheese whizz. They let me sample a couple beers before ordering to see if I liked them.

Fabulous. Come get a burger. Honestly so delicious. The wings were good but highway robbery with the cost. I think it was $18 total for the blue cheese and celery’s and dozen wings? Definitely better and cheaper wing spots around but the BURGERS you cannot beat and they have good drafts and good service!

I would give this place more than 5 stars if it was possible. First, the food and service was amazing. When I first saw the prices on the menu, I was curious if the portions would be very generous or if it was overpriced. Long story short, I had quite a bit of food to take home! Will definitely be back!

Food was ok. Wasn’t impressed with the Buffalo Mac and cheese. Service was good. They have seasonal drinks which the caramel apple martini is delicious

The food was good. Creative menu. Portions are huge (i.e10oz. Burgers). Kids menu has several options including sandwiches and even spaghetti. A kids meal also includes an ice cream with sprinkles and a cute little toy after their meal. The chocolate peanut butter pie is the best I've ever had. Amazing flavor and texture. The fries are really good. I had a cheese steak, which was pretty good. They have fancy grilled cheese, even for the kids. Server was attentive, food didn't take long to come out. We ate in the indoor dining area. There was good space to sit and eat, versus being cramped. The bathroom was easily accessible. They have cool decor on the walls (different beer logos and posters). My only complaint was the volume. You would think everyone was yelling. The sound in there really bounced around. My son was a little uncomfortable bc of it. They also have a bar and an "outdoor" patio, which is walled in with the windows open. There's more seating out there, but it's not climate controlled. I haven't been in there to verify, but they might have ceiling fans or something. This was my first time going there, and I'd definitely go back.

Excellent burger, 9.5/10. Though the menu listed raw onion, it arrived sautéed – still delicious. The bun is slightly oversized, but overall, it's one of the best in the valley. Their French onion soup is also commendable. The loaded fries are overly cheesy, but the straight-up fries are outstanding. The bacon on the burger is the best I've ever tasted. The restaurant's new addition is spacious and appealing.

Stopped in for the first time tonight. They were very busy but everything was definitely worth the wait. Our server Shane was absolutely wonderful. The food was amazing and very decently priced. Will definitely be back!

Stopped in for Bacon Week. Everything bacon. Started with bacon meatball soup. burnt ends and piggy balls. Entrees included Bacon stuffed burger, Kielbasa Bacon Mac and Cheese, Pig Pen Meatloaf. They said they estimate they will cook 900 pounds of Bacon during the week. Great food and great service.

Wow wow wow! The food was really good! We ordered the 2 for 28 Tuesday. We got the nachos, my significant other got the ribs, and I got the blackened chicken alfredo. I ordered a flight to try different beer. I was not disappointed and loved each and every one I tried. I cannot say which one I enjoyed the most they were all that good! I encourage every one beer lover or not to come to this place and try the flight to see what you like the most. I have to admit I have never been much of a beer fan myself but my cousins have gotten me out of my shell and opened my eyes to the wonderful world of beer in that there are so many different types and flavors out there. I still do not like IPAs or hoppy beer. For those who want to know which beer and cider I had in my flight were 2, 5, 6, 9, 11. Each and every one truly were so good.
