Always a great time and end up staying longer than I anticipate! They have TONS of beers on tap and they rotate them often. Employees are experienced with friendly service. Thursday nights are always a blast too. Highly recommend this bar & don't forget to indulge yourself in a Hairy Bear. The new outdoor patio is an awesome summer time spot too!

Came in for a Hairy Bear before I skipped town and loved my experience. The drink and food items I ordered were quality and Logan's service and charm were a bonus!

We came in for some drinks and had an awesome time because of our server Logan! He was so much fun and we had excellent service. We will be coming back very soon :)

The waiter in the bar area was very friendly and kept checking in to see if anyone needed anything, but was not intrusive. The food was cooked to perfection, Keith did an excellent job with the burger I had. Highly recommend the experience.
