Customer Reviews
We visited Skips on January 2nd for a lunch date after hearing nothing but positive things. Our visit ended up stretching close to two hours, for reasons that weren’t entirely clear, but it wasn’t enough to put me off. The food and drinks were good overall, and the experience was still enjoyable. I had the BBQ chicken sandwich. The flavor was solid, though the meat-to-bun ratio was a little off, with more bun than I would’ve liked. Even with that, I’d happily go back and would recommend it, especially if you’re not in a hurry.
What a gem! In town for a 70 mile bike ride, hadn't eaten much but peanuts all day. Got the recommendation from local hotel front desk down the street & thought I'd smash a couple dishes. I stood no chance. Got the chicken nachos and bowtie creole and couldn't finish 1/2 of either! But they were sure both phenomenally DELICIOUS dishes! I saw some complain about the dark mood in the place but it is what it is. It's pretty cool if u ask me. Everyone was super friendly, staff and patrons (i just called in a pickup order on way back to hotel) & makes me wish I was a local or had more time to know folks and have a few drinks! Seems super kid friendly too, its not just some dank bar by any means! Love it, will def be back next time I'm in town!
This is, hands down, one of our favorite places. We are here easily once a week. The food is always consistently great, the service is always wonderful, and we are always treated like family! Alicia is always great and makes us feel automatically welcome. We love it here and can't say enough about the great service we receive every time we are here. I've brought family and friends to celebrate special events here and they've all been delighted! Love it!
Great food, great service and FANTASTIC owners. Will go again! Clean, cozy environment.
Just walking in the door, takes you to another world. The atmosphere is just wonderful. Our waitress was just exceptional! She added to the fun of two old friends reconnecting. The chicken marsala was more than I expected! I knew with the first bite that I had made the right choice. The flavor was out of this world, mouth watering, and hot with every bite. Don't forget to have the cod, there are no words to describe how delicious this was! Hoot & Holler'!
