But it was still so much fun and the bartender (blond with glasses) was on top of it ! She handled that crowed like a pro and her mixed cocktails are always on point and consistent. Just have to give her a shout out bc it was crazy busy last night. I want to give this bar 5 stars but I've come in other nights where there is a guy with a ponytail who works there. Havnt had the best experiences with him nor does he give the best customer service, and it doesn't seem like he really knows what he's doing. The cocktails aren't consistent and are overporn. It's gotten to the point where we will drive by to see who is working, and now we only go in if the blond hair bartender is working.

It was great to have a restaurant nearly on the lake and so convenient to the cabin but it wasn't a busy night and our wait was substantial with the excuse for the delay on my burger being they had to make more bacon. No concessions were made for my extensive wait and the rest of the group was finished eating well before my food arrived. Keep this in mind when ordering. The food was fine overall especially considering the lack of other options in the area.

I don't think it would cost much to make this happen and they'd probably save a lot on sauce cost because when I came here with my B-friend's family, for Father's Day. Everybody poured ketchup, bbq & Worcestershire and that spicy white stuff & probably some sauces I'm forgetting about, that all ended up in the trash, mostly. I think it would behoove them to get the little squeeze bottles so that people can squeeze as they go and not just fill up little buckets of sauce and throw them right into the trash after dipping once. I don't think he would even need to have enough sauces for every table... Just a handful. People are pretty levelheaded, and I believe this would not be hard to save a lot of wasted sauce and product cost loss. Leaving five stars because the meats are phenomenal. I'm not gonna do a star just because the sauce situation is awkward. Had a great time! I used to love coming here when Gwen worked here... The drink selections are great! Atmosphere is phenomenal. Great seating outside with a big stage. Plenty of space for children to run around and play. I will definitely continue to come back. I have high hopes for the sauce situation to be slightly altered to avoid loss/waste. Hopefully someday soon.

Pale ale was very tasty and the kiddo got a huckleberry Italian soda that was quickly sucked down. I'll be daydreaming about the Nashville hot chicken sandwich for awhile- it was perfectly spicy with a hint of sweet honey and the pickle brought it together on a light, soft bun. Hubby loved his garlic-butter compound sirloin which was a special item. And topped it off with a dreamy, warm gooey brownie topped with ice cream, whipped cream and chocolate syrup.

We ordered a chicken sandwich to share and the soup flight. The sandwich was great and the soups were really great! All three of them. I had a really good huckleberry cider and my wife a citric IPA. We both like our drink. As a bonus, they have several TV's to watch sports games on. They have a small patio for the warm days. We will be back for sure to enjoy good food, service and a fun time.
