    Meh. Decent food. It's basic bar & grill type food. Plenty of options. The guys thought the pizza…read morewas good but average. I was trying to eat light, so I had the grilled chicken breasts with veggies. I must say it was nice and moist and a generous portion. We all got plenty to eat and left full, which is a positive. The highlight and everyone's favorite was the soft pretzel with beer cheese appetizer. This one was above average, very good. The service was a little subpar. We stopped in after normal dinnertime hours, around 8:30 p.m., so luckily it wasn't busy, because the bartender had to bartend AND wait on tables. So he was stretched too thin. In his defense, there was a private party upstairs, so the wait staff was sent upstairs to tend to the party. However, they should have had enough staff on hand to handle both the regular business in addition to the party. Being that it used to be a lumber business, I did think the building was really neat. Overall decent experience.

    I was very underwhelmed by the BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich. The store bought BBQ sauce was just poured…read moreon top of braised pork like ketchup. I should have had a clue when I walked in and the place was empty, while another place two or three doors down was busy. It was extremely noisy, despite being empty. The noise came from line dancing classes in the space above the bar/restaurant, and the games along the wall which weren't being played One tip to the young lady who was my server - Please don't call people "dear" or "honey". You aren't working in a 1970's sitcom. It is neither cute, endearing, or professional.

    Good service, cheap drinks (dangerous) and fun locals. It's a cozy bar, so show up earlier if you…read morewant a seat. I've been here a handful of times. It's a favorite place to hang out among local young people and artists. There's often a band playing. It's a good place to watch people. Some strange cats come through, probably to rip out of the surrounding small-town, conservative angst that is Norfolk. The art inside is also strange. I can't remember the guy's name, but there is an artist that everyone loves in Norfolk and lots of his stuff is featured in this bar. They always talk about how great he is when I'm there, and I politely listen, but honestly not my taste. The drinks are so cheap that you have to be careful. I absolutely got shit-faced during New Years a few years ago. It was a fun time though. The bartender was awesome. We had cheap champagne on the house at midnight. They passed around hats, noisemakers and other party favors. They don't have much food here, mostly frozen pizzas that actually taste pretty terrible (but who cares if you're drunk). There aren't too many places in Norfolk to hang out. This is a pretty interesting place.

    A lot must have changed with the Office in a year since the last review. My wife and I stopped in…read moreSaturday afternoon to be met at the door by some mut of a dog, one customer slumped over the bar and a employee playing a game. The lighting was sparse and a aroma I could not distinguish. To say the least, two steps in the door, we could not leave fast enough.
