    Food was reasonably priced, drinks a little bit more expensive! The overall atmosphere and vibes have been nice there. I've gone in the summer when it's been more crowded and in the winter when it's slow. Both times I brought my pup, super dog friendly and sweet! He got to have his own lil dog friendly meal each time as well. Parking was such a hassle each time, and usually need to go walk a distance from a paid parking lot or paid parking spot nearby.

    I enjoyed my time here so much! It is lush and cute, with a dynamic field thanks to the stairs and levels that are built into the ambience. You immediately get an indoor outdoor field, with lots of picnic table style seating, some high tops, and mister to call you off from the hot day. It feels extra tucked away and cozy with the trees built into the entire atmosphere, the location was my favorite part of this place I thought their drink selection was pretty good, I tried a Riki tequila, seltzer, which I had never had before, and was delightful, and at 7% alcohol was the perfect level of strong, but manageable. We wanted to play one of their board games, this was my biggest issue with the place, most of the games were missing pieces, the markers were all dead, and most of them really weren't playable. We got a deck of cards from the bar by giving our ID as collateral instead. There isn't really any table service, it's a seat self type of situation and you can just go back to the bar whenever you need a new drink. I'm not sure if they have food as we did not order any, but the vibes were good. I just wish they had more seating with actual chairs. picnic tables and chairs with no back are so uncomfortable for me and a real pet peeve when hanging for long periods of time.

    I'm hungry. Why close so early for food? It's not even 8pm. I've been before, it's fine. Never really busy. Would be better as a gay bar. Edit: Wtf is this 15 dollar trash for? I thought I was getting tarot cards.

    Love the vibe of this place for a good patio/outdoor meal/drink and appreciate the multi level layout tucked away off the main street. Honestly didn't expect much food-wise - seems like the place you go for the vibe and expect subpar bar food but honestly one of the best chicken Caesar wraps I've had and the tots were *chefs kiss* will def be back!

    Wonderful beer garden! There is a ton of out door seating & the service is great. Great music and vibes. They also have gluten free beer which is great!

    We had a great time at recess! Sat outside and watched the opening game of the nfl season. We had really nice cool weather had cover over our heads in case of rain! We got the Buffalo chicken wrap and the lemon pepper wings. Both were spot on! The tater tots were crunchy and salty! The wings were tender and had a nice little crisp to them. They needed a bit more seasoning/flavor but the integrity of the wing was 5/5. The wrap was bangin! Not too spicy, had some greens for crunch and the cut up chicken was a nice touch! We had bar service but there were no lines so we got our drinks and food very quickly! Definitely will be back

    Great patio vibe on a Friday afternoon/night! Good food! 2 points... 1 - top the nachos better! 2 layers of toppings will do! Great toppings but too many bare chips! 2 - For $6 extra, I need more chicken on my cesear salad! Taste was phenomenal though! Fun tourist visit :)

    Fun place to watch football outside and food is great for a sports bar! I loved the Buffalo chicken wrap and wings paired well with a beer. It's a whole vibe!

After it became clear that he wasn't going to respect our boundaries, I raised my voice (not yelling, just firm) and asked that he stop serving us and that another bartender take over due to his aggressive and inappropriate sexual behavior. Instead of addressing the situation professionally, he immediately told both of us to leave the bar. This was an incredibly uncomfortable situation to deal with, especially on New Year's Eve, and it left us feeling embarrassed and disrespected. The first thing my girlfriend said to me the next morning was how uncomfortable that bartender had made her feel, which says a lot. I truly wish we had never gone to this bar. No one should feel pressured, sexualized, or thrown out for speaking up when their boundaries are repeatedly ignored.

Atmosphere: The theme here is so cool! It's all about Abraham Lincoln but with a modern, artistic twist. There's really neat artwork everywhere showing different looks of Lincoln. It feels like a true old timey speakeasy. It gets very busy after 8 PM, so be prepared for a bit of a wait, but the energy inside is awesome. Price: This is the most budget-friendly spot I've found in the area. Almost everything is $5! It is CASH ONLY, but don't worry if you forget. They have an ATM inside for you to use. Drink: I ordered the Continental, which is their take on an Old Fashioned with a black cherry. It was delicious and definitely didn't taste like a cheap drink despite the price point. Service: Despite how packed it was, the service was incredibly fast. We got our drinks in maybe 2-3 minutes tops. The staff is efficient and friendly. Overall Experience: Whether you're visiting and staying near Union Station or just looking for a fun local getaway, I highly recommend this place. We walked from our hotel, but if you drive, be prepared to look for street parking or a garage. It's fun, cheap, and has great theme nights. I'll definitely be back!
