Visited Barrel Junction today, and it was a great experience from start to finish. We started with…read moretheir seasoned wings and had the sweet chili sauce on the side--excellent flavor and cooked perfectly. We also tried the Buffalo Chicken Pizza, which actually had french fries on top. It gave it a unique twist! The pizza itself was nicely done--crispy on the bottom with a crunchy crust. The only thing we would change is just a little less buffalo sauce, but overall it was very tasty. Our waitress, Grace, was fabulous. She took care of every need and checked on us often without ever being intrusive. Her service really made the visit even better. We're already planning to come back and try the barbecue pork pizza next time!

Back in the day it was 4-5 stars all day everyday. Service is always decent though. Typical neighborhood local vibe. When the food is good, it's great. Here are things I've had and loved and sometimes only liked: Burgers (they do crazy things with them like topping with a pierogi) Fries Chicken Pesto Sandwich Mac & Cheese

Most of the tables were empty but they have a big bar and that is where most people sat. it really seems like most of the folks there are regulars. The bartender/server seemed to know them all by name. There were a couple families with smaller kids there too. I was hungry for wings an thought this would be a nice change and I remembered the wings here were decent. I bellied up to the bar and was quickly greeted. I ordered a beer and then a dozen wings. I found the wings to be a decent price. They had a ton of different sauces and dry rubs to choose from. One nice thing is that they allow you to split your order for different sauces. I took the suggestion of the serve and chose the house sauce and the chefs sauce. One was a spicy mustard based sauce, the other was a sweet and spicy sauce. For me the wings were cooked perfectly. Nice and crispy and on the more done side. The place seems clean and had a larger variety type food menu. Would definitely go again.

I haven't been in this bar in 6 weeks, and the last time I just got 6 to go ( according to my bank records) I had people over tonight, and had to walk back over for another 6er. I live .25 mi away and walked. There was a lull in the gathering, and I had time to order myself a vodka and cran before I left with the second 6 pack. I don't drink often and wanted the treat. Same bartender. Worse problem. She mumbled a 5 second sentence under her breath about me, something about how she didn't want my clothes falling off or some wild unfounded trash, and only would let me buy a 6 pack to go. I asked her to repeat her statement and she refused, saying something like she wasn't gunna "do that either". Again. I'm being treated like someone I'm not, and it's not like I'm in here hassling this person, I do not find her attractive. I simply want a drink, and then I'll take a 6 to go. I have no idea why she treated me like I was a college kid. I'm a 35 yr old man. I walked there. If her reason to treat me like garbage was due to her not wanting me drinking and driving, she still sold me a 6 to go. Its not like I had my keys in my pocket to lay on the bar. I was treated poorly, but had people to serve at home. I was forced to spend the money in this place, and they did not deserve it. The people who own this place allow their employees to treat you like trash at their discretion. I haven't been in that bar in a month and change, and only have 4 times since I moved here 5 months ago. Never again. Keep your money in your pocket or go to the other place in town.

Ok Michael's Tavern, I see you! My friends and I stopped in here for lunch during our bike ride…read morebecause the place we were originally going to go was closed. What a great surprise! We didn't expect much from a dive bar with a "No MC colors" sign on the door, but boy were we wrong! When we first walked in, a couple people at the bar said hi and made a quick comment that made us laugh. The bartender, who was also our server, was super friendly and attentive. She offered to let us try some of the wing sauces (all made in house) with house made chips, and that's where it started. How are they all so good?? When our food came out, we still weren't expecting much. I didn't even take a picture because I figured it was just dive bar food. I was wrong! Everything was just as good as the wing sauces! I ordered the buffalo chicken salad tossed in Michael's wing sauce. The lettuce was crispy, the chicken had great breading on it, the ranch is made in house and delicious, and the salad was HUGE! My friends ordered a buffalo chicken wrap, a cheesesteak and a fish sandwich. Everyone was shocked. We were all almost too full to ride back to our cars. The beer and seltzer selection is great too. The bathrooms were clean. They have a pool table in the back. This place is great. We will be back again, no doubt.

Second time, was met with an unfriendly and insulting greeting. The place seems to be ran by condescending/rude staff who need to go back to customer service etiquette school. In general and in life, I try to avoid people like this, so I'll never return. It's a shame that owners/staff at mom n pop places like this sometimes seem to take advantage of being able to operate so unprofessionally while valued customers have to continue "eating" it.

Nicely pressed bread, tasty pulled pork, pickles, mustard, etc. The sides were good as well - I enjoyed both the potato salad and the spicy slaw.
