Got me a drink I've never had, told me about the area and you could tell he was enjoying it. Love good vibes As far as the bar itself... crazy decor you're going to love it. There's an entire tour around this place. The bar from the outside doesn't look like it has tunnels and stuff but it's got some crazy history. Definitely worth it to come in and have a drink and go through some of the craziness they have in here. In my opinion... as a traveler this is such an interesting place. Super underrated. If you're looking for an adventure... you've found one in kickbacks.

He was so excited to go. Cat was our waitress and she gave us great service. I forgot to take photos but we started with their pretzel, which is so good, and then I had the curry rice bowl with no protein (you can add if you want) , my son the fish and chips and my granddaughter the Mac and cheese with fries. We also ordered my daughter in law fish and chips to go. I love their pretzels with mustard and cheese sauce. They are made by a local bakery. The curry dish is really good, but spicy, which I knew but just know. My son agreed the fish and chips was really good. The only disappointment was the kids Mac and cheese is straight up blue box Mac and cheese for $8, plus an up charge for both the chocolate milk and a side of ranch. We will go back but I think I'll get my granddaughter to try another kids dish.

Just an ideal place to hang with friends or watch a game. Huge selection of great beer. Anything you'd like, from IPAs to ciders to seasonal drinks. Our waitress/bartender was a superstar. Very informative, very attentive, just a pleasure to be around, and seemed very appreciative that we were there. She told us about the other places on the same block owned by the same people. We'll be trying those too based on our experience here. Incredible burgers here...amazing. The burgers rival or beat anything in the area, and there are some stellar burger places around. Spliffs may be my new favorite. Their combinations of flavors, the taste of the smash burgers and the genius of the aiolis that accompany them are just fantastic! The Mac and cheese, to die for. Cheesy, tasty, creamy, sticky. Delicious. Downtown Jax is a fantastic place to eat if you know where to go and Spliffs is THE place to go for burgers and drinks. Check them out, you can thank me later. Highly recommend!!!

My friend ordered us the Pork Belly Kimchi Fries, I got us an order of the Cheese Curds, and for my entree I got an order of the Asian Sticky Wings. I probably would have never ordered the kimchi fries on my own. Sometimes kimchi can be fickle and really hit or miss. It was definitely a hit here. More on the sweet and tangy side but worked really well. Fries seasoned perfectly, and the pork belly cubed and cooked to perfection. Out of all of the times I've been to Wicked Barley, these fries have to be one of the best items I've had from there. Cheese curds were pretty basic. Tasted great, but nothing to write home about. If you like Cheese curds, you'll enjoy theirs. I originally had my eye on the jerk chicken wings and I was warned by the waitress and my friend that they are REALLY hot. Jerk chicken is generally one of those thats right on the borderline of too hot for me. To give you an idea, if you're familiar with Butthutt BBQ's jerk chicken, theirs is as far as I can go for spice level. So I switched it up to be safe, and I am glad I did. Sweet and sticky, these had really great flavor inside and out. Would definitely get these again in the future. Brought a couple home to the hubby and he seemed to enjoy them too, and he normally doesn't like, what he refers to as, "sweet meat". I had three different beers in my favorite tasting style, sour. I had the PB&J sour, the mango sour, and the orange cream sour. The orange cream was my favorite of the 3. We enjoyed the sounds of the band Splittone in the background and enjoyed the whole vibe of our meal. I'm hoping to visit again on a future weekend and possibly bringing one of my pups along with me since they are dog friendly.
