Place was great! Loved all the beer on Tap. And the Buffalo wings were good. For me on the spicy side but still enjoyed them. The owner was awesome too. Very personable. Thanks for the great experience especially on vacation.

Had a nice evening. Cool to select amount of beer you want and taste different kinds before picking one. If you ever really pick just one for the night. Food was pretty good. Basic bar food. Communal seating so get to make new friends.

What a fun spot! The staff (from this past Wednesday) was super friendly and attentive. The drinks were great but I have to rave about the "special order" fries! The cook created something unique for us and honestly, it should be on the menu. And I'd pay a lot more for it too ;) Highly recommend a stop here!
