Horrible from beginning to end. We had a party of six and were sat outside. That's fine. All good. Then it took the Waiter 45 minutes to take the order. It took an hour to get the food. We would have walked out but figured we put in the time. Waiter never came back for water or anything. Told us once that the food is on the way. The entrees were brought out in segments. One order was not received. Simply forgot. The others were horrible. The smoked meat sandwich was all fat. The bun was partially thawed. The others couldn't even eat their entrees. Absolutely horrible service and food. Avoid if possible!

Super inviting feel, lots of warm tones in this contemporary but old-town, Americana-feeling pub overlooking the Mississippi. Server prompt, easy going and efficient. Very good American pub-fare selection. My pork tenderloin sandwich from the pub-fare side of the menu, with Fries, beautifully done, and with creamy coleslaw side, was needed comfort on a plate. I relished and just enjoyed the whole vibe for a while. The adult beverage selection is more than ample. All in all a definite return-to spot!

TV's are visible from about every seat. Prices are very reasonable - to the point of surprising for those of us who don't live locally. What's not to like? Give them a try!

Typical bar/restaurant in most aspects, I sat at the bar both times I visited.

The folks I sat next to at the bar were consistently friendly (even though I mostly prefer to read my book) and the place did steady in person and take out business.

We sat inside at the high tables near the bar. I peaked at the back patio and lawn space which was amazing. I'll be back for that alone. The food we got was on point across the board. No one had anything left to take home which was because we got there starving and it was very good! My Mediterranean salad with chicken was solid, my son's Cesar salad was really good and my wife's southwestern salad with fried chicken was killer as well. My mother's avocado toast was on another level for such a dish. I was pleased to see a few solid branded house red and white wines at reasonable prices on the drink menu also. Endless beer options of course which the rest of the table took part in. A few fruited sour beer picks really pleased the table I recall. The only catch we did have was the wait from the time our drinks came until our orders got taken and then got served. A solid hour! Hard wait when you arrive hungry as is. Service was kind yet I admit that. Just slow on the food hitting the table. We will be back here again for sure and at just .6 miles walk from home, we could become regulars here easily.
