You won't find KJ Brewskies on any influencer's list of must-visit spots -- and that's exactly why…read moreit's worth your time. It sits off the main drag, the kind of bar you notice only after you've driven past it a dozen times. But step inside, and you'll realize it's one of those rare places that still knows what a bar is supposed to be. The lights are low, the air is easy, and the bar top -- polished smooth from years of elbows and stories -- gleams under the amber bulbs. The bartender greets you like an old friend, even if you've never been here before. He keeps a clean bar, tight and organized, every glass shining like it's got a reputation to uphold. People don't come to KJ Brewskies for the food. Sure, there's something hot and fried if you need it, but this isn't a place for plating or pretense. You come here for the people, the atmosphere, the simple comfort of a cold beer that doesn't cost you half a paycheck. The jukebox doesn't take quarters anymore -- progress, I suppose -- but the music's still good. Old country. Classic rock. Songs that sound better when they're a little too loud. Over in the corner, someone's lining up a pool shot. Darts whistle through the air. Shuffleboard pucks slide and kiss the end of the table with a satisfying clack. What makes this place special, though, is how it shifts with the seasons. When the weather turns warm, they throw open the doors and roll out the crawfish pots. It's all elbows, laughter, and the unmistakable smell of spice and beer in the air. Fall might bring a chili cook-off, winter maybe a small charity drive -- each one another excuse for the regulars and newcomers alike to gather, eat, drink, and remember what community feels like. KJ Brewskies isn't trying to be anything more than what it is. It's a good bar -- honest, lived-in, alive. A place to forget the headlines, to talk about nothing important, to exist for a few hours without explanation. Places like this are getting harder to find. And maybe that's why, when you walk out into the night -- the jukebox still humming behind you -- you already know you'll be back.

They have a jukebox when there isn't karaoke running 4 nights a week. It's actually pretty big for a dive, with a huge seating area in the front, as well as the back. They offer two stages; one in the main part of the bar, and the other outside where you may also smoke. Although they don't use them much because they don't have live music often "which I think is a bummer." On a positive note they are still the cheapest place in town. Here you are still able to get a bottle of beer for under $2.50

I found Fire & Ice Restaurant & Bar on Yelp! and decided to give it a try. Jordan seated me and was also my waiter. He was professional and attentive, which was much appreciated. They have a limited menu, but the Mediterranean Grilled Chicken Pasta seemed like a good option. Boy was I RIGHT! This was a very flavorful and somewhat healthy dish that hit the spot. The location is a bit odd. It's located in a hotel that's in an area with a guarded gate. The restaurant is right next to an outdoor pool, with lots of glass. Some guy in just his swimsuit was peering through the glass door near my table, which was a bit awkward. Also there was a large crowd right behind me that was very loud, which also was not ideal. Service and food were excellent; Location not so much.

LOUD AF on a Tuesday night with incredibly slow service…read more I like to eat in local places while we're on the road. Read about this place being historic with a beautiful bar and lovely tin ceiling. And that is all true. Walked in and could not believe how loud the single singer with an acoustic guitar was. There was a sound engineer, working a board, so he must've thought that level was OK. But you could not have a conversation at all. I was wishing for earplugs. When we first stepped in, I considered just looking at the carved mahogany bar and going somewhere else. But, we figured it should be fast and we could endure the cacophony for a short time. We were so wrong about it being fast. There was only one wait staff working that night, and she was also behind the bar. When she finally moseys over to us, she admitted she had forgotten all about us. She then took our drink order, and the drinks came quickly. But then she literally never came back to take a food order. Watched her go to all the other tables, watched her clean off the bar, watched her answer a phone call for a takeout order, and then I finally went up to the bar and asked her if we could put in a food order. Once the food was ordered it came out quickly. My husband's smashburger and candied pecan salad were both really delicious. I am a sucker for a local food item whenever I see it on the menu, and I made the mistake of ordering the cashew chicken poutine. The cashew sauce had zero flavor and was just overly salty. The chicken was fried very tough. At least the cheese curds were good. But I barely ate any of it. Nothing but regret about this choice.

Service from Cheyenne was some of the best anywhere in a long time. She gave great flavor recommendations and was on it with keeping drinks full and attentive for a busy night. Also, love that game nights have wings for .79 cents and have TVs on all walls and most tables have their own to focus on. This review was for Sunday 10/06/24. I'll take pics the next time I go.
