Now the wings were not crispy as I do usually prefer however they were insanely tender and delicious, almost like a rib. However the pretzel was our favorite, would recommend!!!! The cream cheese and the melted cheese oh my gosh I would dream of this pretzel!!!! Our waitress did proceed to forget to ring in and bring us the pretzel until we were done with our meals which was disappointing but wow did it make for a great ending. Do wish they would have compensated or apologize for the mistake, however it was tooo good to complain in the moment. The ambience also inside this place is very unique and cool! The surrounding area however is not the greatest, we did have to park on the street down a ways and did not feel the safest on our walk back. Overall a great spot and can't wait to return!!

Came here on a busy Mother's Day I have heard a lot of good things about this place. And wanted to…read moretry. We were close by so decided to have a late lunch. We came in with a few other families and the place was pretty crowded. We all got to sit. The host was kind enough to clear a regular table over a high top table for us. The space was an old fire station. So the inside is unique. There is a bar along the back wall and some larger booths against the walls. We sat in the middle with a good view of the bar. In the summer they seem to have a nice patio with a big garage door. Menu is large with lots of options including brunch on Sundays before 3p. They are known for wings and burgers. There were 3 of us and we all got something different. I got the house buffalo wings and a farmer salad. One got the cheesesteak dip, and one got the smashburger. Both sandwiches were a hit. My Mom loved the cheesesteak. And Kathy loved the burger. My wings were good. I'd definitely get them again. The salad was a mix of spring mix and brined asparagus. It was just ok. They have ciders, beers and even boozy milkshakes. Lots to offer. This place is a definite repeat. Parking is a bit tricky. There is a lot next to the building but not sure that is really the restaurants lot. Parking on the street too. Prices are about average. Our meal was $87 without tip and only 1 of us had an alcoholic beverage. So it can be pricey. I am glad we came here. It was on our list. Good server and good experience all around.

Was told they are having a permanent roof in stalled soon. We started off with the pretzels, mustard and beer cheese. Yum yum! Belgium triple was very good (9.5%). Even a better choice was the fried haddock. The fish was so crispy and the remoulade was a great addition to the fish. The side of pineapple mango slaw needed salt, pineapple, mango was not very tasty. French fries were hot, crispy and seasoned. Add a side of pickled onions. Kim was our server and she was so up beat and knowledgeable on the menu. Great food and service!

In the past several years, ownership has changed hands 3-4 times and they've gotten further from what made them so good each time. I visited today and it will be my last attempt. There are several things you can do to ruin a great burger and they seem intent on checking all of the boxes. Weird, grainy and overly sweet "house made" ketchup: Check Oversized bun that is dense and almost stale? Check Horrible locally made pickles? Check Hopping on board with the weird trend of putting some of the condiments on the top bun and some on the bottom bun? Check I could go on, but nothing about the food at this place resembles anything they served during the glory days that allowed them to stay in business for multiple decades. Some people don't understand the concept of "If it ain't broke..". Too many Food Network style ideas with very poor execution. As soon as I saw the word "confit" in the description of today's special burger, I should have turned around and left.

Stopped by for lunch on a Saturday. Partner ordered wings…read moreand I opted for the chicken sandwich. Both were very tasty. The huge portion of fries was too much (but delicious nonetheless!) It's worth noting that they share a space with Magic City Brewing and when walking in, it wasn't immediately clear what we were supposed to do. The only bartender on staff wasn't particularly talkative/welcoming in the sense of explaining what was going on or how things worked ...and the Cult Kitchen staff are behind a window past the bar. (I dont necessarily blame CK for the MCB bartender, but they're choosing to share that space and it's part of the experience so it seems like it's relevant.) We sat down at a booth and realized was a small table sign with a QR code for the food and drink menu. Below the codes is a small line of text that explains to go to the Cult Kitchen window for food and go to the bar for drinks. This isn't necessarily a bad setup, just had to adjust our mindset as it's more casual and in line with a food truck experience. ...like going up to the window more ketchup (it's in little lidded containers) for all those fries ...and cleaning up after yourself, as there is no one busing tables. Again, the food was very good but the overall experience was just lacking. It seems like it could be something really special if the hospitality and service was there!

Despite the positioning on their website it's not a traditional sit down place. It's an order window and then they bring food to the table. They share space with the Brewing company so a bottle of soda is what you get from the order window but anything else you go over to order at the bar separately. Two of us went for an early dinner. We opted for pretzel app which were tasty and a very big portion resulting in us not finishing them. I would say that app could easily serve 4. Slider special was tasty but considering the heavy portion of fries not everything on my plate was finished and neither was my coworkers meal. Eyes were bigger than our stomach. Place has about 10 (?) tables/booths and then folks sitting around the bar at the brewery side. I imagine on a popular day of the week (we went mid week before the dinner time rush) it could get crowded and loud. Feel of the place is grunge/biker though clean and well kept and without feeling 'theme restaurant'. I would say it has its only unique personality. Had we been more prepared from the restaurant's website for what the place was we might have more enjoyed things. It's just feels more 'out drinking and getting the nibbles' than a destination meal.

My husband loved his burger and sweet potato fries. I also thought my chicken burger was excellent. We'd definitely return for the food. The unfortunate thing is just how long you have to wait. We ordered our food ~6:35 and we did not receive our main dishes until ~7:20, and it did not seem like we were in the minority or that this was unusual. And after looking at some reviews it seems pretty common for this place, disappointing since the food was so good. We'll definitely be back, but maybe will get there earlier than we think we'll be hungry!

The menu is very limited and there are so many upcharges. I do appreciate the happy hour pricing on weekends too though. Presentation is nice though. I ordered the confit wings $20 and they were really dry and so very un-confit like. I wanted to try 2 different sauces so the server said I can only do that if I get them on the side. But I know other places have much crunchier, juicier wings even plain. The sauces were just okay. No side of ranch and wish there were some carrots thrown in. Bonus points for having some fun board and card games stocked that you can borrow from the front! That was neat! BF is friends with a worker here and he was great! He was effusive, warm, solicitous and really helpful. If we go back here, it'll be for the brunch since that menu looked more interesting. I've been here in 2024 for The Watson speakeasy as well so very familiar with the area.

First day having an appetite after a bug I decided to meet a buddy for a couple drinks and my dinner. Everything was fine until a couple bites into my Butcher Burger, wtf is this? Wax paper from the cheddar cheese. Cooking and grilling 101... DO NOT KEEP WAX PAPER (or whatever the hell it is made of not to mention all the other crap that I'm sure reacts well to heat and oven temps) DO NOT KEEP WAX PAPER ON CHEESE TO CONSUME AND CERTAINLY NOT ON A GRILL. Fantastically disgusting texture that takes a second to say "wtf was that" as you're conversing with your buddy. The server/bartender did her best, but the manager... well I just said out loud, "I've got Crohn's disease, I don't know what'll happen with that!" "Oh you'll be okay." Are you a doctor? A gastroenterologist? Any kind of digestive expert? No. After getting free two or three bites of a burger a losing any appetite I finally got back, I got a free Coors banquet! My buddy and I met there to have a couple drinks so I did pay for two mixed drinks and his beer, fighting the nausea that was ensuing, since I just ate cheese paper. Then the best Christmas gift of all, finally succumbing to the nausea and throwing up whatever would come up. Utterly fantastic Christmas Eve Eve.
