The only caution is that Mac's was Cash Only at the time. There's a nice bar area up front, a larger room for groups in back, and a small outdoor patio. They do food occasionally, and if you're into neighborhood bars, this is a great place to hang out.

I was browsing…read morelocal restaurants and saw a photo of a big pile of wings that looked amazing - right up my alley! Let me tell you, the wings did NOT disappoint!! In fact, they were probably some of the best I've had in a long time! They were good sized, cooked perfectly - fried and then either finished on the grill or under a broiler to give some 'char' flavor. That extra step makes all the difference! I had to ask about the sauce flavors and ended up with the Asian Fusion which was like a mix of teriyaki and sweet chili sauce - very flavorful! They were well tossed and even though there was a pool of sauce at the bottom, I didn't mind one bit! Service was fine -nothing out of the ordinary. I was served a soda that was pretty flat but they checked the CO2 and fixed it right up. The game room looked fun for the kids. I was looking for batting cages but didn't see any - not sure if they still have them? Go karts and Mini golf looked fun too!

I think the food is very good. I love this place. I hear it is going to close. So sad.read more

Right behind the bar was the magazine rack. You did not have to leave your stool to retrieve a questionable magazine. Early in the morning there was a older man sitting by the front window reading the newspaper. Usually the news paper was upside down. Another older couple frequented the place and were known as Mr and Mrs America. Our group included Ivan Stotz, Dick Hessey, Jamie Liable, Dave Maegar and myself, Doug Mofle. Only one bathroom at that time and I remember finding a deer head in the sink.. We usually pulled in about 3 in the afternoon. Love the Bar Doug Mofle

They have a varied menu and offer a lot of options. I'm a vegetarian, so steak wasn't part of my plans, but I did end up choosing the standard side for a steak, a fully loaded baked potato. I had hoped for an IPA, but they explained that they'd offered them in the past without much interest from their regulars. I ended up drinking a couple of Sam Adams, and that complemented my potato nicely. Everyone was very friendly and the prices were good. The menu items on Yelp were out of date, so I took photos of the present menu. I forgot to take a photo before I started mashing my potato...better late than never. I would definitely go back if I'm passing through again! They also have two pool tables and a dart board, if you like them.

Seemed like the oil needed to be changed. Nothing special about the nachos. The Tap Patty Melt was bland. The bread had a bit of an off taste from the griddle. Overall, it was food and wasn't completely horrible, just not great.
