Amazing appetizers from Frickles to the loaded tots with craft beer cheese and bacon. Always get the flight of six handcrafted spirits.

Margarita flight was flavorful - I liked the original best and the strawberry second! The menu wasn't very descriptive so we had to go online to see what each sandwich entailed. They had card games and lots of tvs. The ambiance was fun and enjoyable and our server was super nice! Overall, it was one of the better restaurants around Houghton but just nothing to write home about.

They were so filling that I almost ordered another round, but honestly, one order was more than enough. I even took two home in a doggy bag and ate them cold later without reheating or even dipping them in the sauce and they were still absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is amazing. There's a beautiful view, a patio, a rooftop, and TVs everywhere on the main floor, so you won't miss a second of the game. Whether you're there to catch sports, enjoy the scenery, or just have a great meal, they've got you covered. The service was friendly, fast, and the restaurant was clean. The staff works hard, so don't forget to tip! Everyone was so welcoming, and the food was delicious at a great price. I seen a Mac n cheese bowl topped with brisket omg sooooo good Pro tip: Check them out on Taco Tuesday! And one thing I really loved it's kid-friendly! I saw families with kids enjoying themselves while others were watching the game and friends were high-fiving over a beer. It truly has that welcoming, family atmosphere that makes you want to come back. I'll definitely be visiting again!

The owner is often there herself and it shows, as the orders are made speedily with pride. It's a throwback to the days when high schoolers were your soda jerks and there was the notion that the customer is #1. We didn't have any hot food - something that will happen at some point over this summer - but the banana split, the hot fudge sundae, and the blizzard we had were amazing! We are making this our "after the beach" go to when we take the grandkids to the playground right across the street. Double bonus points? They have a beautiful picnic area to enjoy your treats behind the store, nestled into a small, wooded area that can keep the noise from M55 all but a distant memory. Again, I cannot express how old fashioned service meets cleanliness and quality! Highly recommend!
