    Smash burger
    Kyran D.

    Delicious burgers, best I've ever had!! Everything was on point, no complains, 11/10!! Servers were funny and personable

    Food excellent, staff fun and friendly, cider, beer and Watermelon margarita all exceptional.

    Chicken Bacon Ranch Sandwich - GF bun
    Deena J.

    Delicious cocktails and filling food! Both our tastebuds greeted the Blueberry Lavender flavor in this day, one being a version of the Lemon Drop & the other of the Mule. Both scrumptious with perfect proportions of flavors. We both got a chicken sandwich: Chicken Bacon Ranch and the Hot Chick. We both wished there was more aioli/sauce on the chicken. The fries looked like a small portion yet it was the perfect amount of food by the end. *outdoor seating *gluten free options *signiture cocktails *deals everyday

    Bahn Mi!

    Everything is SO yummy! I had the bahn mi today and would drive here 100 times to order the same! Sweet potato fries with the jalapeño aioli....so good. I've had the nachos, chicken strips and Nashville chicken before...everything has us coming back. Service is fantastic, Husband/wife duo are amazing. Drinks just as good! Can't say enough good things.

    Amazing food! We came on a weekend and it was really busy but service was great & quick for how busy it was. Chicken sandwich & the chicken tenders were delicious. We would definitely return if back in the area. Drinks were yummy too.

    Fiesta Chicken Bowl

    Spacious. Great outdoor seating which had picnic tables and tables with built in fire pits. Pet friendly. Inside had TVs with sport games on (World Cup). Nice but simple selection on the menu. Burgers, sandwiches, salads, and rice bowls. Delicious food and good beer.

    Yelp said you were open on Monday night.

    You closed for dinner during burger week when you have a burger that you're advertising for burger week? Wtf.

    Not quite fries

    We've been going here for years for the burgers and fries. The fries alone were worth the trip. I'm not sure if this place got bought out or new management took over, but the entire menu changed for the worse. Want a burger? It'll be a smash burger. No option for a normal patty. Nowhere on the menu does it say that all of their burgers are smash patties, but that's what I was told. The special for the evening was "a smash burger with fries and two beers" which seems redundant, as *all* of the burgers are smash patties. Want a plain Jane cheeseburger cooked medium rare? Move along, not an option. Now the super sad part: the fries. Their once glorious fries (that used to be included with burgers) are now a $4 EXTRA, as all menu items are now a la carte (?!). The worst part: they changed the fries to something...else. Google image search what fries look like. That is precisely *not* what you'll be getting. For that extra $4 you'll be getting about 3/4 of a potato sliced THIN and fried crispy. These are just thick potato chips, and they definitely don't give you a surplus of them. Pictured is the full amount that came on my tray. Whatever happened to this place needs to unhappen. Sadly, knowing what Initiative used to offer, we won't be returning. The only reason I gave it two stars instead of one is because the waitstaff is friendly and attentive.

    I had the bang bang shrimp bowl and it was delicious. Excellent service, nice brew pub atmosphere with an outdoor patio area. I would definitely come back again.
