Most Disliked
While the friendly atmosphere is a significant draw, some visitors mention that it can get overly crowded during peak hours, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. This can lead to longer wait times for food and drink service.
A few reviews note that the decor is rustic and might feel dated to some, lacking the polish of newer establishments. If you're looking for a state-of-the-art experience, this may not be your first choice. Some diners also mention that the drink selection, while good, could be enhanced with more craft options, particularly for cocktail enthusiasts. Lastly, those wanting a more upscale dining experience might find the casual nature of the menu and setting not quite to their taste.

Had a to go order for their meatball sandwiches. It was very good. Homemade meatballs not frozen. They were big and very tasty. Fries were also great!

Great local bar. Good food and decent specials during the week. Be prepared this bar is not fancy by any means. If you're looking for a shot and a beer joint this is it. Let me not forget to mention the pool tables. Looking for a game? Rack 'em up!
