Grilled chicken salad was perfect, I was totally impressed how everything was packaged separately and my grilled chicken arrived warm and my salad greens were still crisp smartly packaged package all separately. My colleague and I visited this downtown little establishment the next night and had the sincere opportunity to meet the owner and the chef - enjoyed our burgers and fried pickles and cold beer. Everything was perfect, Kyle was friendly and helpful server / bartender. Atmosphere was low-key and just what we needed after a long day of work. Highly recommend!

I ordered an iced tea and it came in a mini pitcher as my glass. We shared an appetizer platter and I went with the blue moon burger with fries from my lunch. The appetizers were pretty standard and the fries were the showcase of my lunch crinkle cut and cooked to perfection. The burger was not too bad, but a little small and the flavor for having blue cheese definitely wasn't that big. All in all fun little place and have a big variety on their menu. Bumping them up to four stars just for the big ole iced tea pitcher.

This was an interesting spot to spend a Saturday night in downtown St. Joseph. First up: Cheap…read moredrinks. I tried to spend a lot of money. Had a few drinks for my wife and me plus a round for our group on my tab. Total was only $25. I've spent more on two drinks before. Second: The pool tables, shuffleboard, and jukebox. We enjoyed using them all. The shuffleboard needed a little TLC to get the pucks gliding right, but it was a good time. I didn't play pool, but our group had no complaints. The jukebox tended to eat a few quarters here or there, but whatever, we where having a good time. We rolled in at about 9pm and the place was practically empty. By the time we left a couple hours later, it was starting to fill up. Downtown St. Joseph has a lot of potential. Give it a few more years, and it'll be a great spot for dinner and drinks on the weekend.

On two occasions a group of us in our late 60s have tried to have lunch here on a Monday. The first…read moretime one of our members called ahead to be sure they could accommodate a group that runs between 8 and 20 routinely. They were assured that they could. When we arrived, however, there were only 2 staff on duty, a bartender and a cook. Nonetheless, the bartender and I moved tables and got ready for up to 15. 18 arrived, and the barkeep added a table. He indicated more than once that NO ONE had prepared him for us or even mentioned our reservation. Service was slow, as you can imagine, food arrived over a period of 30 minutes, and several of our group were unhappy but I detailed the situation to them and mentioned that it was not the bartender/server's fault. the food was good, in almost everyone's estimation. Obviously the cook knew what HE was doing. I tried to get everyone back in there again for about a year before they all said ok, and we scheduled again, 2 or 3 weeks before our visit. when we arrived it was the same story. I asked to speak to the manager or owner, but neither was there. later, I attempted to find the owner's name to discuss this nicely with them, as I have been in business management since 1974, and understand the demands and that owners would always like to know if things aren't right in their absence. After research, I was told the owner listed in the current, 2023, city directory was gone and a new owner had it. In any case, we polled the group and decided to take our group of 16 elsewhere. I noticed we constituted about a 100% increase in lunch attendance from what I saw, and our tab that day at a similar business exceeded $ 225. That's a lot to lose on inefficient communication! I doubt I can convince that gang to try them again, but I liked the food. Maybe I'll get it from Grubhub next time because this is ridiculous. If you have more than 6 for lunch there, keep moving....

Both were very good and we would definitely have them again. I meant to take food photos and forgot. We're going to remember this spot as we pass back through town next week. Don't miss this one!
