Restaurant roulette is what you play when trying some mom-pop joints with few Yelp reviews,…read moreespecially when those few are widely mixed. One Yelper said they'd pull up to Docks on their boat if on a waterfront. That got my attention. Another Yelper said that the burgers were overcooked and the wait staff were overworked. I guess it's all about timing on those experiences. My experience at Docks was very pleasant. I ordered the hamburger steak, cooked medium. It was. And it was exactly what I wanted. The wait staff were very friendly and attentive. If there's any knock against Docks, it would be that it was very dark inside, especially when it is light outside. Oh well, I enjoyed my visit.

I was in Pell city visiting a customer and stopped in at Tavern at the Saint Clair for lunch. I ordered a blackened chicken sandwich and collard greens. Both were fantastic!

My family and…read moreI (8 adults and an 11-month-old baby) were caught in a thunderstorm while out on the water. With lightning striking and heavy rain moving in, our first priority was getting the baby -- and ourselves -- to safety. We attempted to dock temporarily at Bootlegger Lounge's dock to reach a restaurant across the street, even offering to purchase drinks as paying customers to justify using their dock for a few minutes. The response we received from the staff, specifically the woman who came outside, was shockingly rude and completely devoid of compassion. Despite the fact that their dock was completely empty, the bar was nearly empty, and no one else was attempting to park there in the storm, we were told we could neither dock nor even anchor nearby. This forced us to head back into dangerous weather with a baby on board. A business that refuses to extend even basic human decency during a life-threatening storm -- especially when it would not have hindered their operations in any way -- is not a business I will ever support. Safety, kindness, and community should come before rigid and unnecessary enforcement of rules, and unfortunately, Bootlegger Lounge failed on all counts.

We were wondering why there's only a handful of bars in the area and why they all close early early like 10 it 11 pm. Regardless, we stayed till about 1 or 2 am, drinking and singing karaoke with the two other customers and the awesome bartender who picked out all the songs for us. There's a large open room behind the bar room which has some fold away tables setup. Looks like it could hold a crowd for busy nights or maybe if they have live bands? Bar is well stocked with your typical spirits and beers. We were only there one night so we didn't get to poke around too much. Definitely recommend the Alabamah Slammah though, tasty and deliciously strong. Check this place out, maybe it was the booze but we had a great time.
