Customer Reviews
What a pleasant surprise this place turned out to be. We were in town for an overnight visit and got hungry and stopped here. The place has a very dated look, but in a very good way. Almost feels like you're stepping back in time. I loved it! We were greeted and seated by the owner I got the chance to talk to her for a while about the menu. She was fantastic. The wait staff was great. They have a really good selection of beer. The menu is extensive. We got wings and they were absolutely delicious. The pretzel sticks were fantastic. Lots of seating choices.
Stopped for lunch and stayed for a couple drinks. Wings were delicious as was the blue cheese. Friendly service with a smile. Cool vibe atmosphere.
Stopped in for lunch on Father’s Day since it was one of the few places open on Sunday. My wife and I both had wings. She had Buffalo and I had Bbq. They were delicious and so were the fries. They had a buffet for lunch too but we weren’t hungry enough to spend the $25 it cost, but it looked amazing. Staff were all very friendly, and my wife described it as cozy. FYI This is attached to the boathouse, which is thier venue space.
Great food! Thai Jelly Belly (pork belly) was awesome! I had the fish and chips, fish and tartar sauce were great. Not a big fan of the fries that come with it. Wife had the Mediterranean sandwich. She loved it and her fries and the seasoning on them were great (different than the fish and chips fries). Hannah did an awesome job as our server! Definitely worth stopping by, especially on a quiet Wednesday during lunch like we did.
Had an awesome experience at this spot! Hannah was absolutely fantastic—super attentive and friendly. The theme is definitely unique, but once you hear the family history behind it, it all makes sense and adds to the charm. One of the cooks even came out to check on us and shared that many of the recipes come straight from the owners’ mother and grandmother, which explains why the sauces (made in-house!) tasted so fresh and authentic. No complaints at all—except maybe for the employees casually walking around vaping. Other than that, everything was on point!
