    Chicken fajita wrap.
    Sherri E.

    My favorite place to get a quick, comfort-food lunch in Middletown. They are fast and consistently delicious. Great people and atmosphere.

    two plates of breakfast food

    This was the fastest dining experience ever. The food came out instantly it seemed. It's a great spot when you're looking for a great breakfast but also not looking to waste hours of your weekend at breakfast. The eggs were amazing! Nice and fluffy. Service was definitely quick and efficient.

    It is what it is. The food was okay but nothing exciting. Didn't get potatoes because they looked a bit greasy.

I do wish there were more signs, as both the parking lot and the entrance felt a bit vague and easy to miss. Once we finally found our way inside, we were pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere reminded me of another local tavern. Staffed by friendly people. The food was good, and the overall experience was enjoyable. My only disappointment was the lack of information about the history of the establishment. There is a lot of marketing that references its connection to a jailhouse on the menu, but very little information is actually shared within the tavern itself. I found myself wanting to learn more about the story behind the place. I also think it would be fun to add a photo-op area--perhaps even outdoors--with a set of mock jail bars where guests could take pictures. It would fit the theme and add a memorable touch. The tavern itself is fairly small, so I can imagine it gets quite crowded during busy times. Overall, it's definitely worth checking out.

Parking is a little inconvenient depending on what time of day you decide to go but luckily we found a spot right in-front of the restaurant. We decided to dine in and it took about 25 minutes to get our food granted we did order 3 meals. I personally did not mind the wait however ordering for pick up would be much easier. Inside of the restaurant was nicely cleaned and well lit. The mural on the wall was a very nice touch. Would definitely comeback again and try something new!

The freshness of the food was next-level. Everything we ordered looked amazing, tasted even better, and was clearly prepared with care. The entire vibe was clean, bright, and inviting--great lighting, friendly staff, and plenty of space to dine in if you're not taking it to go. Here's what we ordered: A tender for our daughter (perfect size for a toddler and not too spicy) A chicken sandwich for my wife and me to split (crispy, flavorful, just right) A tender slider for myself A large family order of fries (crispy, well-seasoned, great portion) The standout: Sweet Heat Mac & Cheese with Chicken That Sweet Heat Mac & Cheese? One of the best menu items I've had in a while. My only note is that it actually tasted better after cooling down a bit. When it's piping hot, the cheese is a little loose, but once it settles--it's magic. Rich, creamy, with a subtle kick of heat that ties everything together. Customer service was on point, and everything was ready quickly. Overall, I give it a strong 4.8/5--nearly perfect. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and craving some quality hot chicken. Tell 'em Darrell sent you.
