Coffee is still garbage. Decided to try it again because…read morewe're walking back from the beach. The "regulars" to this place must really NOT know what coffee is. When you order a latte or something similar here, you basically get a "beverage" that's mostly your creamer of choice and an ever so slight hint of coffee. Again... Gas station coffee is better and higher quality than what you get here. All these 2+ star reviews are just liars. Unless this place gets replaced or new owners who KNOW how to make coffee take over, this place is just pointless for coffee.

We had mocktails that were delicious and a great value. Had two appetizers - one was mushrooms with cheese in puff pastry cups and the other was baked Brie cheese with roasted garlic and toasted almond. Both were amazing! We each had a half salad with mixed greens, blueberries, walnuts, and blue cheese crumbles. I added grilled chicken to mine. I'm so glad we discovered this place at the beginning of our trip so that I can come back again.

We found a place to sit and waited about 10 minutes and nobody came out so we just went in. Let me say the food was amazing, the service not so much. Our order was taken quickly. We noticed the group of four next to us were waiting for their check and the server had to go to them not once but TWICE to ask them what they had so she could cash them out. Our food came out, we ate, she took our plates and we asked for our check. We then sat there for 1/2 hour waiting. At one point, out of no where she approached my wife and asked her "what do you need?". The check. Thankfully we had cash and just left it with her tip. I'm confident that had we used a card it would have been another 1/2 hour.

First time at this restaurant where I ended up getting the Smashed burger with fries and their…read moreHouse Margarita. The smash burger was well made, tasty and comprised of two patties that equated to a 1/2 lb burger I believe? It came with sliced onions and good amount of sliced pickles where these little green gems add so much to the burger in both crunchy texture and taste. The fries were equally well made and crunchy and a nice complement to the burger. Overall a solid good tasing meal at a very reasonable cost versus the down state pricing I am use too. Relative to the Margarita, I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the drink as it was being sold as a well drink that lowered my expectations a bit. It was quite good and served in a nicely salted mason jar which I love and at the very reasonable price of $7! That's a deal in my book all day long! The bar/restaurant itself has a dark inviting vibe too it where it defiantly feels more bar than restaurant which I always enjoy when I am on the lookout for a good bar burger. Staff was very friendly with prompt service and great follow up throughout the meal. I noted the comments on slower service on other reviews which may have been during the peak summer hours but in my visit here I saw none of that on a Monday eying at 5pm during Mid May timeframe. Overall if you are a fan of bars and bar food than this business will probably be right up your alley. Of note if you like Margarita's you should defiantly order one, or two or..... while here as the price is hard to beat especially at this quality !

I wasn't going to write a review and I surely wasn't going to give 5 stars like I did, but I wanted…read morefolks to understand why this place is important. My wife and I are traveling from Idaho. I'm always interested in local beers and checked out, From Huron Out, online. I saw that there were very mixed reviews and most were old. The most current appeared to be from a local resident who was wondering why any local would even go there. I then started reading the story behind the brewery, the brewer himself, and the backstory of the current owners. I wanted to give it a try. Only one car in the lot upon our arrival. Entering the restaurant we found it to be pleasantly unique. The staff was friendly and we sat in a booth in the bar area. The beer I was interested in trying was not available. I was told there were equipment issues that needed resolved so there were only 2 of their own beers available (I tried both during our meal). I read that the Rueben was good with the meat being "corned" then smoked. Upon ordering I was informed that they were out of Swiss cheese and was offered Provolone. The restaurant being out of a lot of items was one of the biggest complaints from multiple guests. I still ordered the Rueben and was not disappointed. It was an excellent sandwich even with a substitute cheese. Please realize that restaurant business is a tough one, and I can't imagine adding a brewery on top of it. This brewery has been around for a very long time with awards for some of their beers. It would be a shame if it doesn't get enough local support to survive. We were just 2 people traveling through which is never enough to support any business. If the revenue isn't coming in, then of course some of the menu may not be available. Brewery equipment is expensive and again, takes money flow to keep it up. Locals, please don't let this brewery/restaurant fail. Make a point to support the owners and grow the business. I would love to see a successful business the next time my wife and I are traveling through. Bob McDonnell
