Really good people and bartenders. I love this place. There’s a couple people that are rude and obnoxious but don’t you have them in every bar. You try to be nice but that doesn’t work, by the end of the day you can’t blame the bar.

Snacks are available. Full liquor bar, very nice interior and exterior. Out back are Horseshoes and Cornhole, and a shaded smoking lounge. The barmaids are fast and friendly. The prices are awesome. A person can have a very good time for 35 - 50! Stop in and enjoy a memorable time.

It was my first time there. I walked into a very relaxed "hole in the wall" place. They had a full liquor bar. It went from regulars hanging (7PM)out to a full party bar after dark (9PM). People were playing pool and multiple electronic dart boards, a random person asked me to join in just to talk and chill. I came alone and met some good people. Every sport was on the TV from gymnastics to the football playoffs. The crowd and service were awesome. I will 100% make this the place to be once a week.
