This is our go to in Monroe for lunch, dinner, casual hangout and drinks. Service is AMAZING. Todd won't leave a drink half empty or a single piece of trash on your table for more than 2.5 seconds and makes the best kamikaze and lemon drop shots you've ever had. Cassie, Darya, and Madison greet you with gorgeous smiles and delicious drinks (Maddie puts the icing on the cake with an amazing voice on karaoke Tuesdays). Buddah (Darren) has a natural warmth to his personality and can muddle a drink like you've never seen. Even though this is technically a bar, they put forward a LOT of effort with the food and have a delicious menu: wings (amazing), hot sandwiches, hot dogs and hamburgers built every way you can imagine, and even delicious wraps and salads. I almost forgot the STEAKS. The owner cares about his selection of meat and from the steaks to the Tuesday birria tacos, you'll be pleasantly surprised. The cooks care and it shows. The AC cranks, the 9 big screen tvs play every sport you could possibly want to watch and there's plenty of room for large parties.

I love this frikkin place. Spam fries. Wanted some ridiculous Fair food without going to the Fair. So yum. I will not apologize.

We were looking for a quick place to run in and have a quick birthday drink but we were craving pickle backs. Oddly not every bar serves them. I tried Yelp, called some friends, and then stumbled into this PUB since it was the closest. We parked, put our masks on and walked in. We felt like we were from outer space or something. Walking in with masks... When no one in the bar was wearing one... And they were all staring at us. We tried to find a table to walk up to, but the tables are huge (seat 8 people) and 1 or 2 people were at each one. We weren't sure what we were supposed to do so we kept waking until we reached the other side and there was a small cocktail table next to the darts. It took a little while to get someone to take out drink order, so we played darts and just hung out. We were able to order Picklebacks which was nice, we played 2 rounds of darts and then headed out. I can see that this would be a nice local dive, great for watching a game, nothing fancy. Has some pool tables and some darts, lots of pull tabs and big TV screens

Bomb food service is great & drinks are amazing! Anything I've ever ordered has been awesome! very upbeat enviroment!

WTF IS THIS???? Ordered a large supreme, got a phone call back that they were out of large pizza crusts, they can do smaller "personal" pizzas. We got these, literally burnt trash come on, this isn't food.

Suck it Patty W. Go back to libtardia. We love love love this place and Brit and Cassie are the best. I have never seen one single person like Britt or Cassie run a complete bar as efficiently and with as much excellent service as they do.

$1 Taco Tuesday  One of the best bar tacos I've ever had Made with real meat and good seasoning and tomato's not much else

How about Breakfasts? And do you still have taco Tuesday

Not sure about breakfast. But I pass on taco Tuesday. Street taco size and they change a buck. There are better deals all around Monroe on Tuesday.

Free, timed parking can be found on the street. Discover is an accepted form of payment. Happy Hour is offered Monday-Friday from 4pm-7pm on drinks. There is a small outdoor seating area for those who like to sit outside. Indoors offers a good quantity of seating, TV's, dart board and a pool table. Large parties can be easily accommodated with ample sized table tops. There are several beers on draft to choose from as well as a full bar. During my visit I slurped on a couple Nock it Back Hazy IPA's for $4 (hh). My bestie and I shared a 3-topping pizza for $15.99. Service is friendly but slow. Slow as in understaffed so be patient. Only one gal on shift would wore many hats: server, bartender, cook and hostess.

Grab a seat around the fire table and watch a game on TV. On Tuesday's they have a fun 6 game bingo night which is nice, doesn't take over the whole bar if you're not interested but they always have a grinder special on those days. Stop in on Wednesday for 1/2 price wing night. A local favorite.

In short Stands out as being 100% family-friendly with a…read moregreat kitchen, great wine and beer, and soon to have a brewhouse. Great hangout with plenty of huge flatscreens showing the game. In long We heard great things about this place even before it opened; the grapevine just had awesome news about this space finally turning into something that would stick. We pulled up today and immediately noticed the outdoor play area for the kids. It's cordoned off by oak wine barrels, so they're kinda blending their concepts artfully before you even walk in. We're not *that* local, but we definitely buy the idea that there are few, if any, great kid-friendly places around here. Inside, it might be pretty packed already. There are big heavy wooden tables, with more upstairs. You can push them together for groups. You get laminated menus, and they do have table service, or you can order at the counter. They very carefully manage all their beers, wines, ciders, canned cocktails, and so on. Rumor has it they lured a brewer away from Urban Family and will be churning out their own stuff soon. We checked out 2 things from the regular menu and 3 from the HH menu. It wasn't too packed at first, but by 4:00 the regulars, families, and HH crowd were really filling it up. Wines We tried the pinot grigio, red blend, chardonnay, and rosé from the by-the-glass menu. They're all good enough to order most any place, and finding them by the glass shows they're putting real thought into all the details here. Miso pickles Absolutely ridiculously good. Nice seasoning, tart miso flavor, crunchy fresh cauliflower, carrot, and cukes. Would not only order again but attempt to reverse-engineer these and have them at home. Great HH value. Fried pickles Great with or without the cheese that's softened on some (but not all) of the piles. Awesome dipping crema with a bit of kick from hot peppery seasoning. Drummies No longer offered with green buffalo sauce, which sounds like a sad farewell, based on the description of it (jalapeño & vinegary hot sauce, I think). But the gochujang was buttery and peppery. They pressure-fry the wings so they are crazy tender and moist. Humongous drums, too. Awesome HH value--true, you get only 2, but there's plenty of veg in the bowl. Smashburger Another fantastic HH menu item. Nice fresh crunchy toppings, hearty roll, and beautifully seasoned and cooked patty. Not too crunchy, which I appreciate. Easy to imagine someone ordering more than one and getting way too full. Smokey Dipper Regular menu. Awesome grilled steak flavor to the meat, got some salty broccoli mixed in for crunch and variety. The broc would be a good appetizer on its own! Hearty, savory jus, and the onion rings are out of this world. Even I couldn't finish them all, despite how great they tasted. Super generous portion. The staff here are all free spirits and great conversationalists, which is super nice to see. Nothing about this place feels like a chain in any way, although they clearly put real money into the buildout. Such a welcome addition to Lake.

I've passed by this establishment and always wondered about it. At first entrance it was amazing…read morethe vibes were right! We quickly were able to find a table and were greeted by such a wonderful waitress. She was truly a gem. She bantered with us and gave us speedy top notch service. However, this part does not reflect her or anyone foh; I ordered the fish and chip bucket and was presented with what I can only describe as the box of turkish delights bequeathed to Edmund in the chronicles of Narnia. That night I ended up praising my toilet all night. I thought maybe someone spiked my 6 beers but then remembered I only had the 2. I haven't been sicker than a got dang dog like that in a real long time. I don't think there's anyway to describe the scene in my bathroom other than 1970s Vietnam war crimes. Once again Service was great. Waitstaff was so fun. I just didn't enjoy the side of food poisoning that was given to me. The best part is because of the waitstaff I Will probably go again! (after I forget what it tasted like coming back up of course)
