So much to offer but yet again under delivering with outdoor area with disrepair, crap piled up under their outdoor stage and weathered peeling wood table tops. This place screams 5 o'clock somewhere. Music. They hijacked the retirement home tonight. Old guys reliving their garage band era. Okay, family oriented but this place could hit on so much more. Parking. It's very tight. Just be forewarned about finding a place to park because parking lot is small. Staff. Everyone was friendly and attentive Bar. Light pours. Free pours with no measuring but coming up to a 3/4 shot pour. Not a great value. No pictures tonight. This was a total after thought.

We had the Sloggy Pants juicy IPA, the barrel aged cream ale and the Belgian Strong ale. All were good. For our meals we had the fish n chips, Mississippi roast panini and the old bay wings. All were good. The panini should have more meat in it to make it amazing. The service was great. Jess was bartending and waiting tables. She did an amazing job and was very personable. All together a relaxed chill vibe with good food and good beer. We were traveling through from DC back to Louisiana. Will definitely look to come back when passing through.

Stopped by on Thursday for a late lunch with a bunch of coworkers after hearing about their peanut…read morebutter and jelly cheese burger. Upon arrival, it was quite busy but the location still had plenty of seating. When we were seated, we noticed it was only one waitress waiting tables too. She was able to get us our drinks and orders pretty quickly despite working solo. I was the adventurous one in our group and ordered the pb and j cheese burger. Upon initial bite, it really tasted like a really well constructed burger. It was a double patty burger with white cheese. You don't really taste the jam. As you're chewing, the peanut butter comes out and it really makes the bite more creamy and definitely tastes of peanut butter. Overall, I would recommend fat boys for sure. Everyone thought the food tasted great and the portions were big. Definitely worth the trip!

Never one to complain about a restaurant, but my favorite place has sadly become one of the worst…read moreexperiences I've had, and I won't be returning. I ordered the Southwest chicken tacos, and they came out completely cold... it was just chicken and cheese. Menu stated it came with roasted corn and pico de gallo. No it was just chicken and cheese. On our last visit, the owner's wife was rude, condescending, and unprofessional, while her kids were running around the restaurant disrupting customers. Between the poor food quality and the uncomfortable environment, this place has lost our business for good.

Initially when we arrived there was one other customer but upon exiting I noticed that there was a queue for seats yet the noise level was not loud at all. There's an attached shop for those who want food quickly, yet again it filled up quickly. The neighborhood is undergoing a transformation for the newer generation that's working so we felt safe. Though there were plenty of generations in the restaurant. Huge portions and a clean dining room with attached parking are perfect! We will return.

We ordered a red wine with dinner and it complimented the food well! Our service was excellent and the prices match the quality and quantity of the menu!
