3 months agoMy mother and I were door dashing last year and picked up a customer's order from here. Needless to say the smell of what was in that bag was so delectable that my mother and I took a screenshot of what the customer had ordered and bookmarked the location to remember to visit ourselves and order the same thing.
We finally were able to head over and have that same meal ourselves and it was just absolutely incredible. The service was the friendliest service and the owner/ cook even came out to introduce himself and check on how we were enjoying the food. It wasn’t busy the day we went which honestly surprised us because the quality of the food, service and atmosphere I’d assume it would be busy all of the time but it gave us the opportunity to soak everything in. We brought home some food for my brothers who inhaled the delicious choices we picked for them. We will definitely visit again soon!

1 year agoThe perfect tavern wrapped in baseball history! The grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and cheddar on a pretzel bun was great but the fries were the best I’ve had in my life - seriously! Good beers and bourbon.

6 months agoCame in for dinner and a beer and really liked it.
It’s not fancy but the food was tasty. Service was decent but there’s only 1 server and he was caring for tables and the bar, so he was busy.
I had a burger and it was good. Their flat cut fries were tasty and cooked perfectly.
It has a bit of a dive feel, but it was good.

6 months agoPretty solid chicken fingers. But seems like the food can be inconsistent. One time I got a homemade honey mustard the next time it seems cheap store bought. Also the burgers are kind of mid. Servers made you order food at the bar.

6 years agoThis place was fantastic! Their wings are phenomenal (I'm partial to their garlic parmesan and Jack Daniels Honey BBQ). They have a wide assortment of beers on tap, including a hard cider. The atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and the service is wonderful. Both of the Erin's are so pleasant, as well as knowledgeable/quick behind the bar. Will absolutely be returning
