    Ruben sandwich
    Jacqueline B.

    Came here on a Thursday night and it wasn't too busy! It's the same decor as the previous restaurant, super cozy and welcoming. We started with the mozzarella sticks which were pretty decent! It's hard to mess up so that's a good sign. The second appetizer we got was the corn ribbitz and let me tell you, they were amazing!! It's seasoned and fried corn that you eat like a rub. Super delicious and smokey flavor I would come back here just for that. For my main I got the ribeye steak with broccoli and fries. Everything super hot a fresh. Broccoli was excellent and tasted great. Fries were also great. I usually get my steaks medium rare and my steak was a tad bit rare. I don't think I would order it again which is fine because they have many other menu options. My friend got the fried chicken sandwich and it was super tasty, they enjoyed it. The staff was great! Very friendly and fast. Overall, I would most definitely be coming back here. :)

    Monte Cristo with raspberry Jam
    Sue G.

    My first time having dinner here. We actually came here with some friends we made through yelp! So 4 yelpers eating here and trying it out for the first time. Have to say the service was very good. The waitress was on top of everything. She was very understanding when I got my Monte Cristo and had to send it back because it was not cooked all the way through it was still gooey batter. Most waitresses get a attitude when things go wrong but not this one. She was very nice Took back the sandwiches and had them remade. Our friends being Vegan tried the " Hamburger" plant based. They said it was very good. The restaurant was busy when we arrived. Very nice place, the layout and separate room from bar area was very nice. We were in the basement of the building I think. Clean too. When the waitress brought our food back out it was cooked perfect this time. The batter was light not heavy or greasy like some places I've had it. The fries were hand cut and very good. Definitely we would eat here again. They have a good menu to pick from too. I think I'd get the Monte Cristo again it was so good (The only thing is the raspberry jelly was like a jam very thick hard to eat with the sandwich so maybe because it was cold, maybe it heated would be a little easier to use. Otherwise very good. ) Check this place out of your in the area!

    Our first time here was amazing. Clean and cozy spot for our lil date. Service was great and food was even better. I got the Monte Cristo with fries and it was all so good. The fries were very tasty and the Monte Cristo had the tastiest batter fried on the outside of the Virginia ham. I would totally recommend it. We also got the turkey, apple and Brie sandwich which was also good but just not as good as the Monte Cristo. The MC had a raspberry dip which was a nice addition and the turkey, apple and Brie came with a caramel dipping sauce which was good too. We got house chips with this sandwich and they were really good too. We got the kids Mac and cheese and it wasn't bad. My daughter ate it and she can be tough to please. We also ordered the deviled eggs which was not the best but since it was priced low we weren't disappointed that it was not as good as everything else we got. All in all I would recommend this spot and it's food. Service was great and the ambiance was too. We'll definitely be coming back when in town.

    Corn chowder
    Pate A.

    My wife and I split a black and blue burger and a bowl of corn chowder. The burger was delicious. Chips on the side crispy. Chowder was great as well. Service was fantastic but it was a Sunday evening so hardly any people were there. The tavern was rustic and cool . Parking might be as issue but it seems it's bad everywhere in Tryon. Prices are reasonable compared to elsewhere. I don't see how they could have done better . We will certainly be back.

We tried the American Slammer with sweet potato fries and the Patty Melt with the regular fries. Both were cooked a perfect medium and were delicious. The sweet potato fries and regular fries were also excellent. The regular fries have a batter on them which added crispness and flavor. We also shared their Carrot Cake which was fabulous! It consisted of a layer of carrot cake, a layer of cheesecake icing, a layer of carrot cake, another layer of cheesecake icing, and topped crumbled carrot cake, served with a dollop of whipped cream. The staff was friend and provided vey good service. This restaurant is located in an old prison which adds an additional layer of intrigue to your experience.

The crowd there is very accepting and welcomes every newcomer with open arms! They encourage an atmosphere of healthy communication and friendship! You won't find trouble or fighting there like you might at a lot of other bars at night. Easy access to a pool table gives you casual entertainment, as well as the bar sporting an arcade style bowling game and three separate TVs for watching pretty much whatever you are in the mood for. A Touch Tunes jukebox on the wall means that you can play any song your heart desires while you grab a cold one from their wide selection of beer and small selection of wine. Every once in a while, they have a fish fry hosted by a local fisherman who cooks on site, and on holidays, they offer food as well. Occasionally, they have a food truck on site. Not to mention, they have a small selection of snacks and sodas stocked at the bar at all times. Wednesday night is APA pool league night, and they welcome players to join their team, The Twisted Ducks, whether you are new to the game or an old pro. Saturday nights are Game Night and karaoke, and you can expect some great singers in the house. They offer a selection of board and card games available for you and your friends to join in on, of which the most popular are Cards Against Humanity and Heads Up! If you haven't checked this place out before, you're missing out. It looks daunting from the outside, but once you're in, the mood is absolutely wonderful! Everyone is a friend there, just waiting to connect with you! You should go down there and see what kind of fun there is to be had down by the river. You won't be disappointed!
