The Asian slaw was a nice twist also. A little spicy and vinegary but just right.

The ambiance is very nice and clean. Bistro lowkey and nice. Typical bar/pub. Renovated and cozy. Definitely will come back.

When I order a $20+ hamburger I just expect more. But it's a beautiful location and the service is fine. If you like a few cocktails with your meal and are interested in the atmosphere likely as much as the food, it's probably a great option. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with fries and a coke. The coke was a bottle (if you follow me you know my thoughts on this) and my cheeseburger was cooked perfectly, though the amount of bacon was minimal at best. The fries were amazing. My wife ordered the chef's chicken special (sorry I'm not sure what it was called exactly) and she liked it but didn't love it. Our server was very nice but it did take a bit to get initial service and the pace of the meal seemed slow given it wasn't very crowded when we were there. All in all, it was a fine meal but not my favorite in town. If I want a burger there are better options at more reasonable price points.

Despite all the open seating, we were placed right between two other parties, which was a little annoying. The service itself was just okay. Nothing terrible, but nothing particularly memorable either--mostly just taking orders and bringing out food. The portions were on the smaller side, though you'll definitely get full if you order enough dishes. The frites were good and reminded me of Five Guys fries. I ordered the chicken, while my husband got the chef's special: homemade potato gnocchi with tenderloin. The chicken was decent but a little dry and really depended on the sauce for flavor. The chef's special, however, was excellent. We also enjoyed the Rosebud cocktail and the lemon tart for dessert.

The second visit was okay. First, the best parts: the cocktails were delicious and I loved trying a few of the different spirits when our server brought us samples to try. Also, the patio atmosphere was lovely as the weather was perfect for both visits. The bingo was also a lot of fun! Overall, the food was good, but on our second visit the service was incredibly slow. Our server told us that the kitchen was running behind, but our friends were at the table next to us (with a different server) and they ordered when we did and had finished eating before our food even arrived - and I had to go find someone to inquire about it as our server never returned after dropping off drinks. She did apologize and take an item off the bill and hand us a few drink coupons which was appreciated, but the experience had put a damper on our enthusiasm (especially after we told the rest of our party how awesome the place was). Will I go back? Yes, but maybe with tempered expectations.

It's a place you should stop by! Order the S'mores hot chocolate....so worth it!! (I got the one in the mug years back, and got one in a coffee cup recently, both are a delicacy!)

But neither were better than other places in the area. They also had a good selection of local and state micro breweries beer and IPA's. The inside design was interesting, but was very clean and quite spacious. The outside unfortunately is very non descriptive. In fact I almost got rear ended because I didn't immediately recognize it as the place I was looking for. Mainly my fault, but a little better signage would help.

The prices were also very reasonable for both food and drinks. You can get the typical no-frills bar food, but if you're just looking for a space to relax before an IU game I'm not sure there's a better spot in Bloomington. We had great service and our whole group kept talking about how it was such a great find. It's attached to a motel and can be easily overlooked when driving into town.

You don't have to be in a hurry and for most who find their way there, rushing is not what they are doing. Brunch is my favorite but the menu is solid throughout the day.
