Even though it was a Saturday night it wasn’t busy and the service was exceptional. My whiskey quesadilla was excellent and the chicken capris sandwich was delicious. Do yourself a favor and stop in. You will be happy.

Great lil pub /bar. Bartender was amazing. Burger was very tasty and the curly fries were perfect. Would have given 5 stars if the burger was medium rare like I asked instead it was more medium. None the less it still was juicy and tasted great.

Got here early Saturday night. Very few people in with just the bartender as server. He was polite cordial, and accommodating. We sat in the back room next to the fireplace. I ordered 2 appetizers (chicken bacon ranch quesadilla, and tator tots) both were excellent. the cbr was actually on a garlic tortilla and was amazing. Wife had grilled chicken which was juicy and flavorful. Will recommend this place to everyone
