The hummingbird feeders were active. A turtle walked around the entire time looking for a place to dig a hole. The staff were friendly and eager to please. We went for their Friday night fish fry. We ordered the haddock (served grilled or beer-battered). The salad bar (included), was small but very fresh. It included two choices of home-made soups. The waitress brought out a warm loaf of bread for the table. The deep-fried haddock was cooked nicely. It was a light breading and was not greasy, geat flavor. The French fries were hot, baked potato was good, new potatoes with parsley and butter were okay. Great place for a fish fry! We will have to go back and try other items on the menu!

The staff follows suit. Food should be made from the heart-otherwise it poisons you. This will poison you. I watched them ridicule (like a game for them) snidely any person who had questions or was confused by how to place OR pick up-If you don't like customers-maybe choose a business where you don't deal with them on a regular basis?

It was a nice touch to have a musician on the outdoor patio. Nice selection of sauces and a menu with many options. The ribs were tender and not dried out. They didn't separate from the bone however. They were not fatty. Chicken was a bit under done and under smoked Brisket fell short (sliced) as it was tough and dry. I can see why one would want it chopped because it was difficult to cut with plastic tableware. The vibe of the place was a teenage hangout place. Many large groups of teens coming in and hanging out outside seating areas and also filling up the small inside dining area. Beer selection left much to be desired. There were brewery signs decorating the inside yet those breweries and beers were not available.
