What our guests are saying
Julie the bartender on Tuesdays is the best thing to happen since sliced bread!! She was friendly and perfect at everything she did. The food was amazing!!! Will be back!!!

Cool vibe in that old building. Service was friendly. Food surpassed what one might call “bar food”. I got the turkey club which hit just as I wanted. French dip my wife got was quality too. Onion rings and fries were great. Can’t wait to try more things on the menu.

From the moment we walked in we felt like we were special guests. The hostess and server were so pleasant and accommodating it made for a very wonderful day. And the food! As good, if not better, than I would have made for my family and guests, which I did for many years. They are all gone now so it was great to have such a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving experience. We will be returning.
