Had an Aussie Rules Football watch party there and the food and wait staff were incredible. There are a lot of burgers out there, but their Bourbon Trail burger seriously could have been the best burger Ive had. Wait staff kept the beers coming without delay and were friendly. We also appreciated the kitchen being open quite late.
A cool bar with a homie feel. Food was very good. Bartender was very nice I dont remember her name but Ill tell her next time I stop in!
Unpretentious. Smoked wings. Bartender in a Red Fang shirt. Sweet potato fries. Multiple hockey games on at the same time. Wood paneling. Friendly staff. Id give this place a 65 if I could.
It was a great place to hang out
Always happy. Service can be slow on game day, but people are always kind and the food is always reliably good. Cant go wrong. Also their BLT is HUGE! And its rare to find a place that will do just Flats on the chicken wings this place does. Love it!
