So I want to be cautious here as I know there is new ownership from what I heard. My wife and I…read morecame here spontaneously as we were in town for the weekend. When we ordered, the bartender didn't drink which made it hard to know what certain beers taste like, but honestly, no judgement because he did the right thing and offered tastes of beer which was awesome and helpful! So service wise I would say great! The beer tasted really good as well and was decently priced. They had a bourbon barrel stout which was pretty good and newly released. The biggest issue we had was with the food. I ordered the spam sandwich with chips and my wife ordered the chicken quesadilla. While the food was cheap, the quality of the food also seems that way too based off what we ordered. The spam sandwich was supposed to be teriyaki flavored, and didn't get any of that. There wasn't a lot of thousand island dressing on it too, which made the sandwich dry. The chips that were served were clearly out of a bag as they were cold, which made it seem like I could have just gotten a bag myself. I would have paid a few dollars extra to get something fresh like fries. While spam comes from a can and I know this, my wife's chicken quesadilla had chicken that was clearly from a can - it was sopping wet, and the meat was very chunky, and very salty. This made us worry the rest of the food may not be very fresh. While we did have that experience, I will say the pretzel bites were really good and did seem fresh, and they were sourdough! So that was nice. I think this place has very good beer, and a really cool bar setup with a nice stage, arcade machines, and much more. However, I wouldn't come back here for lunch. Instead, I would make food at home. I would highly recommend more fresher options, and I would pay a little more for better quality food.

Nice sized bar area and huge outdoor patio where you are welcome to wait. Bartender made us feel welcome even though we didn't need drinks while waiting. Excellent views on the beautiful patio! Live music. Excellent server! NA options...4 beers plus mocktails. Huge variety on the menu and well priced. All of that said...the food is what you come to a restaurant for, right?? 3 stars for food... We ordered cheese curds and asked if regular or spicy were better. Were told we could do half and half. Great to have that option. The regular ones were excellent. Spicy were terrible. Gyro was a small serving size and flavorless. Nice amount of feta and other toppings, very little lamb meat. Tuna was good, not great. Prob 3.5 stars All in all, food doesn't have to be perfect to be good and you can truly enjoy going out if the food is "just" good. Will definitely go back and try other menu options. Since there's a great variety we'd likely find something excellent.

There were 3 IPA options on tap which is what I typically order, but I opted for the pumpkin wheat While I waited. It was very light and refreshing without a heavy pumpkin taste. We ordered the potstickers and cheese curds as appetizers. Both were served hot and fresh. Very tasty! It took awhile after apps were out for our entrees to arrive. I ordered the Reuben with sweet potato fries. Reuben was very good but sweet and potato fries left a lot to be desired. For my second beer, I ordered the West Coast IPA. It was a mosaic ipa and a bit hoppy! Very cool, solid restaurant. Super cool area & would definitely revisit for the beer!

Since they allow dogs, we walked down there and had dinner. We only had a few minute wait so they could set up our table and then we were seated. You order at the counter so we got an order of spinach dip and the one of their flatbread pizzas. The pizza was good! Service was a little slow but it was a Saturday night. Unfortunately we never got our spinach dip. A girl came around and said it was sent out and then given to another table. They also said they'd refund it but I've still yet to see a refund on my credit card. I even asked the bartenders about it and they said they'd take care of it but still nothing. So I guess I'm out the money. I'd recommend d the place but their wait staff seems a bit chaotic and frazzled so I guess just be prepared for that.

I immediately ordered the corn beef hash that came with 2 sunny side up eggs and sourdough toast. It was all delicious. I also ordered a flight of beers that were all solid. While they didn't have a hazy IPA (my favorite style) they did have a good selection. The Nightfall Imperial Stout was my favorite followed by the Manistee IPA (American IPA). The Hefeweizen and Lumber Baron Wheat beer were both solid. The place itself is very nice and the bartender was really friendly. The place wasn't very busy with only 2-3 other tables full when we left. They also make their own spirits for purchase.
