    This is a wonderful historic spot in placerville! There's a bar and restaurant portion and this…read morereview is for the bar. They offered a variety of IPAs and stouts- it took a little time to find a beer I liked but the bartender was very nice and let me sample 3 different ones until I found one I liked. The ambiance is great and it's a nice spot for a quiet drink.

    We didn't have a chance to try the food because after waiting 40 minutes with no food we had to…read moreleave in order to make our appointment. The male server could not have been more rude! I understand he was upset probably because we took a table away from his potential tips, but to treat us the way he did is inexcusable. I asked if him if the food hadn't been made if we could cancel our order. He left and appeared to speak to the kitchen staff. He came back and cleared the table next to us and did not communicate anything to us. I asked, is that a yes or no? Without looking at us he said hold on. He finished clearing the table and walked away. He came back 10 minutes later and without saying a word he placed the bill on our table and left. Luckily we had the cash to cover it and a tip. As we walked away he rushed over, likely to make sure we weren't skipping out since he had been so rude. Will we go back? Uh no. This could have been handled much differently leaving us wanting to try them again.

The staff are, to a person, friendly and professional, and I always feel welcome and appreciated. That one experience long ago must have been a fluke.

The menu had typical American food, soup, sandwiches, salads, burgers. We ordered the Ahi Lettuce wraps, and the fried green tomatoes. The ahi was good, but it came with with a bunch of fresh and pickled vegetables that threw us off at first as we were expecting more of a thai style lettuce wrap. The one thing I really want to highlight here in my review is the five star service we received from our server Jazze. She is really attentive and direct but not in a brash way. One of the people in our party was having a hard time choosing between two beers and Jazze went out of her way to provide two samples so that our friend could make up her mind. Jazze also was very quick to refill our drinks, check in with us on ordering and how our food was, as well as ensured we felt acknowledged and welcomed. I would come back only for her. Only issue I experienced was getting stuck in the bathroom as the smaller of the two stalls in the bathroom has a door that swings outward in the same direction of the bathroom door so you can't open both at once and also if you close the door to the bathroom all the way you may need to use some elbow grease to open it from the inside
