    Everything about this bar screams amazing. Amazing staff, food, entertainment and great vibes! Karaoke is the best and I love coming here when I want to have a great time!! Again the staff is amazing and they always take very good care of everyone!

    These two very good pool hustlers took over our table.

    We all live 20-30 minutes south of SLC and had been playing APA pool league every Wednesday. It's after work Thursday and we came here to play pool. As soon as I parked and saw the front, with the fire pits all lined up looking cool, I had high hopes for this place. As I entered, there was a big 6'8" guy greeting and checking IDs. Everything is right there. From left to right, 10 electric dart games... packed! Tables and 4 tops, bar... packed... 4 pool tables... one empty table for our crew. Not the best tables... A server named Chase was on it! Took drink orders for us 4 and delivered with food menus. I ordered pizza. They only have 16 inch pizza.I was going to order the halibut fish and chips but learned the fish is frozen. The pizza took a bit of time but they were more concerned about it than I was. I had a stein of Pacifico draft and playing pool with my friends, all was good. When it did arrive, it wasn't good and the top was burned; " why'd you give them a 4!?!?!" Because when I left, at midnight, the placed was still packed and the karaoke was non-stop love flowing. All levels of ability had the same level of passion and the crowd gave love to all the singers. The place was "live"! I talked to all kinds of strangers and found a couple new friends. A good time had by all... and on a Thursday?!?! So what about the food, I was entertained.

    Midway Wings
    Ashlyn M.

    75¢ wings on Wednesdays? Say Less. The habanero mango flavor was amazing. They're also HUGE wings. 10/10. The only thing I didn't love was my Bloody Mary. I love bloody Mary's and have been searching for a good one. The blonde bartender (don't remember her name) was great. She said we didn't have to pay for the Bloody Mary which I definitely appreciated. This bar is also huge. Pool, pinball, darts, so much to do. I'll be coming more, despite my not so good Bloody Mary lol.

    This is my first visit to the Midway. The place feels like most bars I have been in. Once they turned the lighting up it was much easier to see the decor. Pool tables and lots of dart boards, it was clean and comfortable with your choice of high tables, low tables, and bar seating. The service was incredibly slow, and the staff apologized for the delay. The customer at the table next to mine just walked out due to the wait. How would they ever handle a capacity crowd? What really struck me as odd was the demand that I surrender my card before I ordered or anything was served to me if I was not paying cash. They asked if I wanted the tab to stay open and I said no. I was just there for a burger and some water. I waited a very long time but the card was never returned to me. All I could think of was they were in the back shopping at my expense. I finally had to ask where it was. Again, they disappeared into the back and after a while it was finally returned. This really spoiled the experience for me. I have not even been served yet, and already I know I will not be back. After an hour of waiting I was served what was supposed to be the Steak Burger with bacon added. There was no bacon, no sauce of any kind. Just a dry bun with a cold burger patty. I didn't even have a napkin or silverware. When I asked about the missing bacon the staff member looked at the ticket and said it was not supposed to have it. She offered to go try to find some, but at that point I picked up my stuff and left. This was one of the longest waits for such pitiful food I have ever experienced. Go at your own risk. Hopefully you have a better experience than I had.

    Came for an event and had a blast! The owners family is super friendly, just the smell of the food alone is amazing! Perfect stop for darts. They also have a golf simulator which was so cool!! I didn't realize they did brunch, we will totally be back to try it out.

    Wednesday special chicken wings, onion rings and loaded fries!

    Cool place.Great service and great atmosphere. Very nice selection of Beer and Mules. Food menu has something for everyone, and there's a couple of pool tables, digital darts and Karaoke for the musically brave Great place for adult entertainment!

    Bloody Mary with tequila made by Tiffany. Mmmm

    The Midway is more like a neighborhood bar with sports on TV than a sports bar. Lots of dartboards and karaoke almost every night. Highlights of the food for me are the taco, fat ass wings(bourbon sriracha), and most daily specials. This Bloody Mary is bomb today as well.

    We wanted to try this place because we saw it on Bar Rescue. My husband and I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon after a martial arts seminar we attended, so we were pretty hungry (especially me). It didn't feel like the staff was all that attentive to us, and it wasn't particularly packed that day. It took quite awhile to even be greeted and for our orders to be taken. The inside decor was fun, like seen on tv, but the food was okay. Although our chips and salsa took forever to come out, the kitchen staff did make salsa fresh for us.

    Absolutely LOVE this place! The food is great, the employees are VERY nice, and surprisingly, the karaoke was even REALLY good last night! We had Jelly as our server who ROCKED and the boneless wings and Cobb salad were bomb. Check it out, especially if you like karaoke!

I knew from the parking lot this place was a winner. Once inside, it had a welcoming atmosphere and people inside were all having a good time. This brewery features Lager Beers crafted using traditional Bavarian/European methods...thus I had to try one...two...maybe more. Luckily there was a ton of delicious looking food on the menu from the expected pizzas and wings to the old world treats like beef stroganoff, goulash and schnitzal. Everything is made from scratch and I couldn't help looking at all the neighboring tables to get an idea of what to try. Our waitress Ashley was really helpful and checked if the pesto was made with nuts as we have peanut and tree nut allergies in our family. Luckily there were no pine nuts or other substitutes and we could safely have it! We ended up getting quite a feast of plates and then topped it off with two desserts- the bread pudding and the German chocolate cake (couldn't come to a family agreement so had to get both!). Thanks Bohemian Brewery for the excellent time!

We had the pork shank and the chicken schnitzel. The pork shank came with spatzle and red cabbage-excellent dish. The chicken schnitzel was pretty good. It had a fresh taste to it and even a little lemon-y, which didn't make the fried cutlet taste too rich. It came with mashed potatoes, gravy and veggies. The veggies were your basic steamed veggies, but the dish was overall good. Service was great-server was attentive and the manager came around as well to check on us. I think it would be fun to come here for Oktoberfest, since the inside has a good ambiance.

Only reason I haven't been back is because eating out is a whole-family decision. What you get at Bumblebees is, in my opinion, a rare and odd fusion of foods that loosely fall into the realm of Bulgogi and Primanti Brothers (think fries plus bulgogi). The interior is appropriately dive-y. The service isn't surprising or especially fast (I recall it being respectable), but...that unique combination is only akin to having chili Mac (chili over spaghetti) from Hard times in DC. So...it's in that vein of highly flavored meat over a base starch that is cooked in such a way as to carry the flavor and not hamper it...every time I drive by, I wish my family liked spicy things more - it's totally worth it!!

They are operating as a restaurant so in Utah, you are required to order food with your drinks. They do have some cheaper food options and the servers are very cool with you sharing food. I recommend getting a pizza to share! As far as the food is concerned, it's your pretty standard bar/pub food but a little bit more upscale. So, it's a good spot if you're looking for something that everyone will enjoy. Their pizzas are popular and very reasonably priced. Porcupine is also a great location for post mountain activities and right along multiple trail routes.
