    a view of a hockey rink
    Stuart P.

    I'm all about a good dive bar and the best thing about this one is the unique view of the ice skating rink. There are often hockey games or practices when we are there. Fun to watch. The lack of stars was because, a.) they were out of a common ingredient (sugar) to make the cocktail we wanted; and b.) the ownership has changed and the bartender said they are no longer honoring the "free fries" when you check-in on Yelp, and she said nobody has a clue how to take those things down from Yelp or any other platforms they offer specials. Felt a bit like a bait-n-switch to us, but I don't think it was done purposely. I believe the story that they don't know how to fix these things they inherited from previous owners. Regardless that that, the bartender was very friendly and the service was on point. It just seems the ownership has details to clear up to get the place running smoother.

    Poutine

    Small dive bar feel, with a window to the skating rink. Bring warm clothes as it's a little chilly but not uncomfortable. Had the poutine, I'm Canadian so this was so nice and a great size.

    Chicken Wings

    Came here with 13 people for a birthday celebration. The location was hard to find, it was behind all the other stores in the back side of the parking lot. It's a nice place for people to watch the game while eating/drinking. But not worth going solely for food or drinks. More of a place to wait for kids to finish the game or watch the game. We ordered some wings, nachos with carnitas, soft pretzels, and crispy chicken sandwich. Wings were good! Crispy on the outside and juicy! Nachos were not good, melted cheese was literally looks like it was melted from the microwave and it's all dried up when you get it. Carnitas were also not great. The fries were the best part of the crispy chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich it self was a very thin piece of chicken. For drinks it was a game day so lots of game specials including a mystery shots! It was gin based and it was surprisingly really good! Can't beat $1 shots!! Sangria and the earl grey martini was not the best and they both tasted more like juice. Would recommend to go if you want drinks/quick bite before skating or watching a game.

    Apparently this bar has been here for many years. The food could be a hidden gem, but I did not want to disturb the cook, who was relaxing and texting in the tiny kitchen. Beer prices were reasonable and staff was nice and they even have one of those 1980's era ice hockey games. The view of the rink was pretty cool, but that's about all. Likely, alot of regulars have been coming here for years.

    I have been SO excited to visit this place since I heard of it (prelockdown) and finally got to go last night! The atmosphere is awesome! Been missing hockey & sports in general and this place is so unique and fun! My boyfriend and I sat at the bar. Scott was our bartender and he did a great job of keeping us entertained and well nourished! We had DELICIOUS fried pickles (my favorite!), split a chicken BLT and also had some garlic hot honey chicken wings! The wings were spicy and sooo good! My bf was so excited for the Canadian beers and we quenched our thirst with some refreshing molsons. I will most definitely be back as often as I can be! I NEED to try the brunch poutine! This place is awesome and I highly recommend checking it out!!

    November specials!

    This is the best bar! The food is delicious (their tacos... their specials... so yummy). Having a kid that plays hockey means I'm at the rink multiple times per week and the bar is a great spot to sit during practices. This bar has greatly improved over the last year and a half. The rotating beers are great and I love the weekly specials. It's a great place to catch up, watch sports and watch my kiddo play hockey. Love this place and what they've done with it. Kim is fantastic and knows her business! Def give it a try!

    Super cool dive bar where you can watch some hockey and tip back a cold one. Usually pretty quiet but friendly atmosphere. I enjoy visiting this place.

    Mike J.

    Decent dive bar with a unique view of the ice rink. Seems like a place where the hockey moms go while the kid is at practice. Cheap and good bar food. It's a little hard to find, it's in the back of the shopping center.

    Loaded fries with sour cream and ranch... So delish!!!!

    Stopped over on a Saturday night early (8pm) to meet a friend. Yelp gave us a coupon for some tasty fries. I'd go back to explore again.

We mustered up the courage to walk up to the doors and opened them. We were surprised and shocked to see that it was CRACK-A-LACKIN' in here!!! Lol!! The place was poppin' on a Sunday night and the vibes were good! No one apparently chose to eat out on the front patio, but everyone was in the dining room enJOYing good food and company. The food we ordered was very filling and the prices weren't bad! The alcoholic drinks were a tad heavy on the alchi, but we didn't mind. We just babysat out drinks for a while and then mixed them to evenly distribute the goods. Our server was on point checking on us every so often. We didn't wait long for our food and had a great time catching up. It is a bit loud in here, so if you're looking for a quiet place, this isn't it. However, come on in if you're down for some good food and drinks! This won't be my last visit!

    Never have I ever felt racially profiled anywhere until I came to this bar. Me and some friends…read morecame from California and were looking for somewhere to have drinks and watch the game. Tatum the bartender came over and took our order, not very friendly but it was decently busy so no biggie, she checked all of our ID's and brought over the first round of drinks. Our actual waitress then comes over and we try to order another round of drinks when she then asked if she could see our ID's to verify and we all gladly gave her the ID's and this is when things go bad. The waitress took our ID's to scan because she wasn't confident that they were real, we agreed but we look over and she's searching in a book and going online to verify if our ID's were real and at that point it had been about 10-15 minutes of her analyzing the ID's and we just told them to cancel our last round and we will just pay the bill and go because we could tell her concern wasn't to find out if they were real but to prove they were fake. Being a neighboring state to Arizona and working a bar you would assume they have experience with California ID's. After everything she tells us we can no longer be served insinuating that our ID's were fake. Not a single other table around us even got their ID checked. And as we looked around we were the only ones who were of color and no one else in that bar were being bothered with their ID's. As I asked for our ID's back and for the bill Tatum gave me plenty of attitude and didn't bother to tell our waitress our request to cancel the order and return our ID's. After everything we were told we could no longer be served because after all that time waiting her scanner randomly didn't want to work. So a bars ID scanner does not work, a light wasn't used to verify the ID and with the use of the internet and book she still couldn't verify our ID's. After everything no manager was called, no reasoning was given to us on why she thought the ID's weren't real and we were told we couldn't be there even after they had served us alcohol. So if our ID's were so suspicious why serve us the alcohol to begin with. If foul play was being done which wasn't on our end it was already done on their end.
