We were seated without waiting, and I ordered from the extensive beer menu after a tasting. I had the rhubarb rumble (something like that) and it was great! We both ordered brick oven pizzas. Hubs got his ushe, pepperoni and onion. I had the white pizza--garlic mozzarella. We both really enjoyed our pizzas and the atmosphere. Our server was very attentive and it really didn't take long for our order. We'd come back!

We were sat in the back, and the kitchen is open, but that wasn't the issue-…read more There was a woman SCREAMING at the staff in the kitchen. I only assume she ran the kitchen- and she was NOT happy with the staff. One person even told her he wouldn't be talked to that way anymore. It was extremely tense and we were all uncomfortable. Her screaming orders and belittling staff was louder than any music or conversation. Waitresses were cringing taking orders trying to hear over her. We were there on a Saturday night at 6pm and they ran out of small pizzas and calzones as we sat down. One person got poutine that was ice cold, and the gravy was sour with no taste and cold. Chicken wings were just large breaded chicken tenders with some sauce drizzled over the top of them. Not great atmosphere with the incredible demeaning kitchen staff and food was not good.

I tried my brothers steak and we both agreed it was the most unique tasting steak we'd ever had in a bad way. My mom ordered a dish that came with rice and it seemed as if it was a type of quick/instant rice and her meal wasn't enjoyable. She said the quality went downhill from previous years. I ordered the duck, and I could hardly cut it, it wasn't tender, it was extremely chewy and the flavor was almost tasteless and what I could taste wasn't good. The sides were better than the duck sadly. My little brothers got burgers and fries and I will say the fries easily best the rest of the food with their salt and skins still on. The prices are steep and are comparable to other "fancy" middle tier restaurants, another side note all of our dishes for 6 people came out within 10 minutes which says something. I wish our experience was different.

If I was forced to pick the winner it was Vermont Hazy. Wow, that good. We ordered a soft pretzel with their sauce, and their buffalo spinach dip which was incredible (Served with nacho chips). We loved the vibe, the beer for sure...so good I had to memorialize it with a t shirt. Score!

They do have vegetarian options (burger can be vegan, I believe). The house made veggie patty was delicious. It's not the blah standard and unimaginative black bean patties most places have.

A bar without an IPA on tap just isn't a bar in my opinion. These guys had two, yay! I ordered the chips and asked for them crispy/well done. I got kettle chips, Awesome! Perfectly golden brown and super crunchy. They have loaded chips too, I suspect they have the crunchy done to support the "loaded" toppings. Great idea. The chips were so good, I went for the cheese burger too. Also perfect and served with A-1, which always gives me a smile. What is that red stuff anyway? I'd go back.

We were starving and cold and took a walk around the town to find something. I looked at the menu and thought is get microwaved food but the chicken sandwich was juicy and real? So good. The bun is toasted with butter FYI- the burger was also juicy and my burger enthusiast friends loved them and was very happy with the find!!! I would def. come back and recommend if you want to avoid the craziness and have good food!
