They have beer, wine and premixed cocktails on tap and also have whiskey. They also have soft drinks and canned craft beers that you can purchase as well. They have pretty typical bar food menu items that were, really good. Our group tried a pizza, the pretzel bites, garlic bread, nachos, and mac and cheese bites. The pretzel and mac and cheese bites were my favorite. Trivia was fun but it was a little hard to hear unfortunately. The acoustics or microphone or both were a bit challenging, but fun nonetheless! Will definitely return!

I suggest you never come here. False advertising and an incredibly disappointing experience…read more The advertisement clearly says that Fridays include the first drink on them. When we arrived, we were told that promotion was only from 6-8 PM. That restriction was not clear in the advertisement....please see the screenshots/photos. Unfortunately, that was just the beginning. They were out of the only Sauvignon Blanc they offered, and multiple dishes on the menu were unavailable. When dishes were available, they didn't have the sides that were supposed to come with them, for example, buffalo wings but no celery. When we spoke to the very young manager about our experience, her only response was, "Sorry." The cauliflower I ordered was actually good, but my friend tried ordering several different items and was told they were unavailable. She eventually went next door to get something else to eat. She brought it back unopened and hadn't even started eating it. Despite the fact that I had ordered food and had a drink from this restaurant, we were then asked to move to the other restaurant's outdoor seating because my friend had brought her food back. She was literally waiting until we got back to the hotel to eat it (to go) The entire experience was frustrating from beginning to end. Poor communication, misleading advertising, limited availability, and customer service that did nothing to resolve the situation. I would never, ever go here again. Ps the place where my friend got food was 5 star (Shawarma). We should have known as they were packed and Hoppy House was a ghost town!

They have a great selection of beers if you're a craft beer person. I used to come here frequently in the past and not much has changed (in a good way).

They have taps, a stocked fridge, and a large bottle / can selection to choose from. It's also a good place to stop in if you're looking for a case to take home or to a party, for example.

My review may not be your experience and it's entirely based off what I ordered and cost. There's no bang for your buck here. The plus: - Music was good (Gwen Stefani "Sweet Escape" had me vibing) - Atmosphere near the bar is perfect for feeling like you're not in an airport - Server was quick and efficient (tipped him well - Food was hot - Loves the pickled okra that came with my meal The minus: - Pricing is steep for handhelds and entrees - My fish filet handheld was filling but not $28 filling (it was small) - Fresh but lacked flavor - No place to plug in for charging My handheld might have honestly cost them $4 total (with fries). And it was small and lacked flavor. I know, I know ... it's the airport. Just not what I had expected. Still, decent atmosphere if that's what you're looking for.

With 52 beers on tap there's no shortage of options on the drink side. However unfortunately the food didn't seem fresh and neither me nor my friend was a big fan of anything we ordered. The drinks were pretty good, so this is more of a drinks spot than a dinner spot in my book. The wait staff was very friendly, which always helps. Good place to grab a beer with a friend, just don't come hungry expecting the food to match the drinks.

It's been a while since I had Lonerider's beer and at one point it slipped my mind to write a…read morereview about it but then I realized there was still a review I haven't posted yet for the brewery and decided to rectify that oversight. We had three different beers from this brewery, one in which appears to be no longer in production. The discontinued one was a pale ale by the name of Peacemaker. It was refreshing and enjoyable to have. Flavor features with this beer are that typically seen with a pale ale which are hoppy, malty and sweet. The beer is very light bodied which is nice and very smooth. Unfortunate that it's out of production. The other two beers we had are still being made. One was Shotgun Betty which is a Hefeweizen. Not bad but sometimes I struggle with Hefes and the strong banana clove flavor which was the case here. It was good that it was light bodied like most Hefes are and smooth also. The final beer was the Sweet Josie Brown Ale which I think was my favorite. The sweet, malty and coffee flavors are very enjoyable and like the prior two beers a nice smooth body to this fine dark beer. I am glad I recalled this brewery experience as I felt it was important to post the beers we had and what we thought of them!

Food decent, but the service was definitely unorganized. I got my tasty Biltmore Chardonnay and water quickly while Husband waited forever for a Diet Coke and for us to order. I was about to start chugging and move on when she finally came to take our order and we still had to ask for his drink. A small sorry I forgot would have gone a long way instead of an "it's coming". Food when it made it out was decent. Wings were supposedly smoked. Fried is more like it, but finger lickin' good bbq sauce. An appetizer portion was a perfectly fine dinner for me. Husband's all American burger was fine, and his fries were very good. Don't wait to ask for the check if you need to get moving. We asked just in the nick of time!

We wanted to give them the benefit of doubt and saw they had love island watch parties. We came early to secure a spot. Told the host why we came and he sat us right by the TV. We waited for it to begin. We tried to order the theme drinks and were told no because it's only when the show begins. (Mind you this was 10 mins prior to show time) Then the show was supposed to begin and none of the tvs were on the show. We watched them play with remotes for 15 mins. Still they didn't put it on the half of the bar were 4 groups were waiting. 30mins into the show we didn't see our server, no one told us it was only showing in the pool area. Us and another table had to get up to see it was on the other side of the bar. Mind you, there was no sound for a WATCH PARTY! So people were reading subtitles. Finally our server came and apologized about it not being on our side. We asked for the check and she charged us for those drinks WE NEVER GOT! That were sitting at the bar for 30mins.
