You can find everything for your baking, candy, dessert needs. There's cake boxes of different sizes and shapes. All types of candies and chocolates. Just everything! The only thing is, it's hard to know where items are since there's no "signs" and it's easy to miss what you are looking for. Also the pricing of items are not easily displayed so I had a few surprises at the register LOL The customer service is great and the ladies are really helpful. They used to do in person candy and cake classes but they said starting in 2021, it will be virtual. I may check out it as it sounds fun!

The crust was seasoned well and it was just the right amount of cheesy. The patio view is always nice. The only thing i didn't like, was that you have to order at the bar versus the waitress coming to your table. I'm not sure if this is a regular thing, or if they did it that way because they were short staffed. One of the employees did come check on us a couple of times and she was super nice. I will be back!

They need to go to Precarious and see how they do it. Their food is generally good to great. They have a $5 before 5 app and drink special menu that is a really good deal. Nice spot for adults to have some drinks. Just be patient as service is generally slow. Now onto my recent experience.... I suggested it to some friends who wanted to grab some beers on MLK day which was a Monday. There were 4 of us guys and 7 kids. It's a lot. I get it. They weren't overly busy. Maybe a quarter full. I tried to keep the kids away from other tables by giving them boundaries. They were not happy with us. They didn't like the kids being outside in their patio (freezing, no one out there) etc. The one server was getting destroyed. She had just like 6 tables, but a 16 top. I felt badly for her. Our drinks correspondingly took about 20-30 minutes each time we tried to order. She was nice when she could get to us. At one point a person who said they were a manager, I think she said her name was Hannah, came over and said the kids couldn't be going around (again, I had boundaries not by any other patrons etc. from what I could see they were honoring them, but who knows), anyway she asked if we could keep them by us, which is fine. I then asked her if I could put in a beer and app order as I had been waiting for our server with an empty beer for at least 20 minutes. Instead of taking the order and ringing it in, she said she'd send the server over and disappeared never to be seen again. 5 minutes Iater the server was able to get free from her big table and get our beer orders and food in. Several items were forgot, but at this point we were kind of over it. Just not really your typical relaxed brewery vibe. Felt like they wanted it to be more of a sit down restaurant. That big long story to say it's not a spot for kids. Overall food and drinks are solid. Beer is solidly middle of the pack for Peninsula. Management needs some work.

I stopped in for lunch with some co-workers and was greeted by a nice and friendly staff. The main parking lot is kind of small and was pretty full during lunch. It is easy to get in and out of. I ordered the G.O.A.T. burger which revved up all my tastebuds. The blueberry jalapeno BBQ sauce on the burger combined with goat cheese was a great balance between sweet, tangy and spicey. The fried jalapeno and bacon added some extra spice, crunch and saltiness. This burger is righteous. To wash down my burger and fries I selected the red ale, which is balanced and not hoppy tasting. I am a big fan of red ale if you are not a fan of overly hoppy beer.
