It is a great experience overall, even if the beer isn't quite as frosty and delish as it used to be! The food was good onion rings nice and crispy.

The reason I rated so low is due to the Cons outweighing the pros!! Cons: in a matter of sitting at the bar for 5 minutes, I observed a bartender (Carol) that was incredibly rude to not just one but several other customers. She was verbally aggressive and makes it very clear that she does not enjoy her job or being around customers any longer (if ever). The attitude made the entire side of the bar extremely uncomfortable and everyone agreed that they will not be going back when passing back through. The owner should really look into the matter because she is single handily pushing the customers and profits out the door (if the owner is even concerned). She gets mad over the music selected from the juke box and does not think twice before making snarky comments to paying customers. The Cons are unfortunate and maybe something will change one day and we'll all be more excited to go back for great food and fun memories!

This place has such a quaint, cozy atmosphere with beautiful mood lighting that makes it feel warm and inviting. They offer unique drinks you don't see everywhere, which was a nice change from the usual bar menu. The live music was a great touch and really added to the overall vibe. It's the perfect spot to relax, enjoy a drink, and soak in a nice atmosphere. Definitely worth the spontaneous stop! FYI, as for food it looks they like they only have charcuterie board and they stop serving it by seven Wish they served it a little later we got there at 8:15 as everybody loves a charcuterie board Sorry, I did not get pictures. I will next time.

Ordered takeout and unfortunately after returning to our hotel we realized a large portion of our…read moreorder was incorrect. We ordered a double smash burger with bacon (an extra $2 charge) along with tomatoes, lettuce, and onion. The burger arrived with no bacon and none of the listed veggies. We also ordered a triple smash burger with cheddar cheese and tomatoes, lettuce, and onion -- again, none of the veggies were included. We also ordered a mashed potato bowl with chicken, corn, and brown gravy, but there was no brown gravy in it at all. Even though a lot of our order was missing, I will say the food itself still tasted good. The biggest issue, however, was the customer service. The young girl working there, who looked to be around 16 years old, was extremely rude and snotty. When I asked for plastic utensils, she replied, "We do not have any." I asked how we were supposed to eat mashed potatoes and gravy without utensils, and she shrugged and said, "Ma'am, we are a bar, we do not have it." I responded that I've ordered takeout from many bars before and they always provide plastic utensils. She then sarcastically replied, "Good for you, have a nice day." I tried speaking with who I believed was the manager (he nodded when I asked if he was), and while I was explaining the issue, the young employee continued interrupting and talking over me. Another waitress overheard the conversation and quickly returned with plastic utensils, proving they did in fact have them available. The employee then changed her story, saying she "didn't know" if they had utensils and claimed she was super sweet to me(not rude). There is no reason an employee should be speaking to customers this way. She clearly needs additional customer service training before handling customer interactions on her own.
