When we got there we sat on the patio and the vibe is always fun and casual. We ordered appetizers and happy hour drinks. The Spicy Chicken Thai flatbread is always delicious.

We ordered the Pork Tenderlion, Grown Up Grilled Cheese and rhe Wacky Patty. It took a little long for our food to arrive but it was well worth the wait. Pork Tenderlion was a little on the small size but tasty. The Wacky was delicious and the Grilled Cheese. Sides are ver6 tasty. There is an astounding slelect of beers offered. Both draft and bottled. After I asked the manager if the kitchen was short staffed, as the food took a littke long. Alex stated that they had a limited staff at the tome as most had been on break. As we were on our way out, Alex presented us with a gift certificate for the delay. It was ver6 unexpected but greatly appreciated. Overall, our experience was very good and I will be recommending this establishment to my friends. Well worth the time to head out to enjoy the fares this establishment has to offer

Micky's Famous Conglomeration was another hit at our table and again, very filling! The Chicken, Bacon Ranch Wrap was the final good choice of the day for our table. Next time we might split an entree so we can try the funnel cake fries!

Note: For anything in the 'Burger' section of the menu, you can sub the beef for chicken or black bean burger. The beef patties were HUGE - probably 1/2 pound . And no skimping on the toppings here so go there really hungry or split with a friend. They were messy, drippy, and once you pick the sucker up, you hang on for dear life so the bun or toppings don't slide off. To me, this is the way a truly great burger needs to be! So, prepare yourself - lots of napkins are your friends... Burgers come w/hand cut fries that are beautifully browned. Unfortunately, I opted for carryout so I knew the fries would not be very crispy due to steaming a bit during transit. I'd recommend eating fries there on-site as they will be MUCH better. So why 4 stars vs. 5?? The burger was begging for a better sear and was barely browned.

Their menu has a variety of burgers which can all be subbed out for grilled chicken or a veggie patty. Their fries are some of my favorite I've had, and I love to have a good dipping sauce with my fries so I usually ask for the garlic aioli. They also have shorts sauce on the table which is mildly spicy with good flavor. The restaurant is small and dark, so if you come during busy hours you may have to wait a bit for your table.

It's a smaller bar, but there seems to be a lot of seating available. I went to grab dinner with a friend, and we both ordered burgers.

My friend also ordered a stout flight that came with blue cheese chips and donuts. The food was good, but I can't comment on the stout. The service was pretty quick, but we did ask for napkins several times and did not get them. Overall, it was not bad, and I would definitely go back.

Don't wasn't great: Nobody thought it was worth it to change the bills. So we paid. The food was ok. Four of us ordered fish and chips, which we found out 30 minutes later they ran out of. Ran out of frozen fish and french fries? Ok. We all ordered different things, none of wish were Irish. Nobody thought the food was good, it was ok. The beer was good and we all liked it.
