They ain't go no cider on draft. Lies.

They aint got no pork loin or cider on draft as advertised and asked to review. I WANTED a draft cider. Nope. Lies. We planned our time in Holbrook around the advertised karaoke last Thursday. It says they haveit at 7:30pm posted by owner or manager. Lies. There wasn't even a bar fly in the joint. Which, for the record, looks NOTHIGN like the advertised pictures on Google. It's like they are ebarassed or something? They didn't do anything to "make it right." We left and will never return. Plus it was sketchy once it got dark.

Though it was a little slow our waitress was kind and kept us posted. She took our order for drinks and came back for our orders. She came back with garlic bread, which was tasty and then took our orders. Noah went for a pepperoni pizza. Noemi was looking for spaghetti and meatballs...she was asked if she wanted a half portion, and she went with it (only one meatball though). Liz ordered the traditional lasagna. I ordered the baked Zitti. I enjoyed my Zitti. The sauce was simple, and not butter or overpowering. It had olives and sausage slices. I had a taste of 'em's spaghetti...not too shabby, but the pasta was slightly overcooked...for my taste. Noah's pizza (a small 12") was pretty good too. I thought that the sports bar would be too smokey, but it wasn't. We had a good time and that's because the service was very kind and the kids could be themselves. Not too shabby.

While our KC Chiefs let us down in the end, Shauna didn't! We really enjoyed our Buffalo Bone-in Wings and Papago Orange Blossom 16oz beer prior to halftime. I'm not a huge beer drinker, but this beer was awesome. While more time passed, I saw Shauna putting together a beer flight so I looked at the beer menu again and chose a flight to go with my burger at halftime We really enjoyed the SW Burger and natural cut fries. There was plenty of food to share and this was really, really good burger. I'm not sure if it was the brisket burger patty or the entire combination on Texas Toast that made the difference, but it was dam good! I had forgotten how filling beer could be, but I still managed to finish (with my husband's help) my flight of 4 beers: Fate Halfway to Hefen, College Street Brewhouse Big blue Van, AZ Loc Ale Beer Cactus Bird Juicy Wheat and Greenwood Mango Lassi Nitro - Whew! The beer names are lengthy. You do need to read their menu. There was nothing we didn't like. It is so nice to have a good meal and enjoying the company of patrons and staff. We hope they continue to be a good place for locals and travelers.

The bar food menu is quite limited. The chicken panini was pretty good. Tried 2 different beers that they make there. They both had an "off" flavor. And it was the same off flavor in both ones even though they were different styles.

Our bartender was super friendly and helped us choose what to order since we were stuck between a couple very different items. We each had a blueberry blonde which we loved and shared some Brussels sprouts to start. Those were super delicious I loved the maple sweetness with the salty bacon and blue cheese yum! They brew their own root beer btw that is so dang good, it tastes like a root beer float in full soda form! Next we were torn between the pork tenderloin and the stroganoff but ultimately went with the tenderloin. That was a great choice for us. It wasn't a huge dish but perfect size for us to share and the taste was great. My sister loved the peach sauce on top. The pork was a tiny bit salty but with the sauce and potatoes together everything was perfect. We messaged our Dad who lives nearby and sent him a recommendation to come check this place out. I'd definitely come back next time we're in town, I still need to try the stroganoff!
