You start off with 2 sauces for dipping the complimentary tortilla chips. Not like Tostitos, but thick and crispy! So yummy! Watch out because the sauces have a kick. I ordered a horchata which is great with lots of cinnamon. There's so many drink options from frozen to on the rocks. Full bar is available. Now for the food... I ordered flauntas con pollo and they were perfectly fried, topped with cheese & crema. The best I ever had. My husband got a huge burrito so overstuffed that it's 2 meals. The dinners are plated with guacamole and pico de gallo. The guacamole is so delicious and feels homemade. The pico was bland and lacking something but we'll let that slide. Overall, 10/10 for ambiance, service, portion size, food taste & quality.

Like nachos but they use kettle chips rather than tortilla chips. A baked Reuben dip (a special)--so cheesy and savory! A soft baked pretzel--perfect for sharing. Came with a spicy mustard! Then came the real Irish classics -- Irish sausage rolls--thick sausage wrapped in a pastry, a great comfort snack. Shepherds pie--a mix of ground beef and lamb. This was savory and perfect for a cold March day! Fish and chips--the BIGGEST fish ever and it was so light and battered well. And if you're a sandwich person, you have to try The Rail Bender which was a huge sandwich with mouthwatering beef brisket, and came with a savory au jus for dipping. For drinks, we went full Irish with their St. Paddy's day specials: Irish Lucky Charm, Irish Maid, and a Jameson Orange Creamsicle that tasted like dessert. If you're looking for the perfect spot to celebrate St. Patrick's Day all year round, this place absolutely delivers. The service was warm and friendly and was a welcoming place in Spring Lake!

If you have a huge party, they've got you covered with a humongous backroom bar seating. The entire staff there is exceptionally knowledgeable about their craft beers, so it was a pleasure to chat with them about what to order. The IPAs and Double IPAs are very hazy, hoppy, and fruit-forward. Stouts are full-flavored. If you enjoy craft beer, THIS is THE place to go to. You can order and have delivery, or bring outside food to be eaten there.

The beer here is simply outstanding. If you are scouring the Garden State for the best beer…read morepossible, you're in the right spot. But I'll get to that in a moment. The taproom is on another level as well. One might say it resembles a millennial hipster fever dream, but being a millennial myself I say it is incredibly well thought out and designed. Housed in a former manufacturing facility for a company that made military telecommunications equipment, there are so many different spaces all under one roof. A bar in the front room and a bar in the back room. A small 21+ lounge with couches in the front, and a giant 21+ "sports zone" with three giant TV's in the back. Three coolers for beer to go. A large merch area. High top tables. Regular tables. Immaculate bathrooms. This place has it all. My girlfriend and I came out on a Saturday afternoon when the place was packed with families and their kids. There was a toddler in the small 21+ lounge and a baby in the sports zone, and only two people pouring beers so they were unable to notice and do anything about it. We don't mind kids in breweries but be advised if that isn't your thing. To the beer: according to their website, they specialize in hoppy beers. There were 13 beers on tap (with some being slight variations of each other). One lager, four stouts, and the rest IPAs. They don't do flights but will pour you two sample sizes at a time, and you'll need those sample sizes for most beers because the ABV will knock you off your feet. I love IPAs and I can easily say they knocked these out of the park. The standout to me was the Birdie Putt, which they didn't have available in cans to go, so we got a four pack of the Ground Rule Triple instead. Founder Jeff Baker spent years honing his brewing skills in his garage before opening the brewery in 2023, and his dedication and passion really show in all of the beers. We live over an hour away, but we will definitely make the pilgrimage back sometime soon.

They do have excellent bar food such as flatbreads, wings, and large pretzels, but we were impressed with their stuffed shrimp entree, drunken clams, and more. We heard the short rib sliders were a favorite, so the staff listened to their patrons and created a whole short rib burger to be added to the menu. I really like when a restaurant deeply takes into consideration the needs and wants of their patrons! It says a lot about how they operate the business. Please end your meal with the chocolate chip cookie skillet, it was so chocolatey, soft and decadent. It's a must. The service was phenomenal and very prompt. We also liked the many tvs and different seating options there, as well as the cozy intimate bar atmosphere. Definitely hope to come back soon next time I'm in the area!

There is one particular bartender though (female) who is a JOY and always checks up. You will know when you have her, bubbly with a smile. On busy nights it's hard to find a seat. Once you do though, the feel is cozy and charming. Real hometown. The menu has classic bar staples at average to high prices, but usually large portions, tasty, and of quality. The garlic parm wings are a must get. Very meaty with crispy skin and sauce that doesn't lack. Top notch blue cheese with real chunks. French onion soup would also recommend. Have tried other apps here and was never disappointed. They offer some weekday price specials so keep a lookout. Entrees & dessert I have yet to try so still pending... They do live music nightly--can't say it's the top acts of the area. Hit or miss but does the job. It's also the spot to be for St. Paddy's. It's family owned and they give back to the community, so it's worth patronizing.

I had grown parched from our fierce love-making and I was in need of a stiff libation. I asked Freddy, "Is there a good tavern nearby?" To which Sweet Lips replied.

I drove with the pedal to the floor the entire way down Route 18, my balls aching for an entire lake of homos. I arrived at the bar, known as "anticipation" which made my loins ache ever harder, only to find a bunch of scantily clad white women. There wasn't even a lake! I was soon informed that I was in Lake "Como" and that Freddy's recommendation was for the drinks only. Forlorn, I returned home alone, my "anticipation" at it's maximum. I later unloaded my anticipation into Freddy while his busted wife watched. Also, I had a beer. It was okay, 2/5
