Cool little brewery in Crete. Evil Horse was better than expected. It's kind of a small place but…read morethere's apparently enough room for events and things. Among these are fun stuff including live music. The beer is the main attraction of course, and this has a surprising amount of variety. As was our luck we got here when there was some kind of festival. It had a cover charge to get in and see some live music. They let you come and go as long as you had a wristband. At the bar there wasn't that bad of a line. We ordered a few beers, which is the only thing they have on the menu. It's about $5 a pint for most beers. There's a good amount of styles. I liked the Holsteiner the most of what we had. This was refreshing, and hoppy but not a lot. Best things of course is the beers. It often has events going on like music and trivia, so come back often and have fun. There's no food here, but you can get some at the restaurant called The Loft, which is upstairs.

Food is mediocre, owner is rude, arrogant, disrespectful and dismissive! The worst is the place…read moresmelled like a musty log cabin. I got hit with that lovely aroma as I walked in. Now that I think of it, I thought it was weird that there were several fans going all over the bar...water issues? Anyway, after eating our pizza, we left and caught the owner, Phil, on the way out. We told him the pizza was good and that maybe he needs to mention that soft drink refills are not free. I know it's not a big deal, but I just assumed at a place that presents itself as an upscale bar, with a "chef", that would be the case. Oh well, I paid over $8 for 3 ice filled pints of Diet Coke. I'm just saying it would have been nice to have been told that by the bartender. Then this guy goes on about he can't do that and that he has free music so that should be enough and he'd go broke if he gave away free refills of Coke! He was all huffy at that point and I have no idea what he was talking about. So to calm the situation I asked him about his live music and began to tell him that I am trying to rebrand the hall at our local VFW and he cuts me off to snap at me, "Good luck with that! Try to get 25 people in that place! Ha! Ha! Ha!" as he turned and was walking away from me. I was in udder shock! What?! It's the local VFW Hall and I'm trying to help out our veterans?! My entire point was before he cut me off, the hall holds way more people than his little, bitty place and I wanted to offer the hall so he can book larger acts. Oh well! His loss! Not really sure what this guy's deal is but it seems like my experience is a common one with him! Read the other reviews! Wow! In this day and age an owner shouldn't treat customers like this. Especially after they just spent good money in his place. SMH. Never again! Plenty of other options in the area to spend my money.

They have a big sign out front that says they now have food though. Bar is located in a strip mall that looks crappy. In fact, it's the same one that has China Garden, the town's best restaurant, which may actually be the truth to be honest. Taking into consideration that place isn't even that good, you can imagine what this must be like. Has kind of okay prices on drinks. It's $7 for Jameson. Has no food except for potato chips. There's appetizers for about $5 but they had no food the last time and won't any more it seems. Has a lot of games. It has quite a few slots. There's a few tables to sit at, so it's big enough for large groups or for whoever.

There's a ton to choose from at pretty good prices, and there's also a small but good food menu. Came in recently and we got a few drinks and food. It wasn't that busy and we were one of the few inside the last time here. There's also a patio you have to walk through to get inside. It's about $7 for a cocktail. Most of these are made with whiskey. I liked the Oak Old Fashioned. This is Bullett Rye with aromatic and orange bitters, Fever Tree seltzer, and a sugar cube to top it off. Also we had the Pretzels And Dip. It's $7 for a few. This comes with a choice of cheese or mustard. It seemed like the prices were cheap. They could have charged a lot more and people wouldn't have thought anything of this. Good drinks and food. It also has good prices.
