Inside was cool and a nice escape from the heat. They have 2 bathrooms inside that was small but clean. I got the steak and rib combo with Mac&Cheese and beans. It came with honey butter and corn bread. The honey butter was so good and paired perfectly with the corn bread. Onto the steak and rib combo. I think the steak was good but the ribs was not my cup of tea. I felt the ribs were dry. But speaking of tea the sweet tea was honestly the star of the meal. So refreshing and in my opinion perfectly sweet! Plus for the unlimited refills!

It was literally falling off the bone with barely a tap of my fork. It was so meaty and tender.. not dry! I do have one little gripe because I really loved their cornbread w honey butter.. I couldn't get another one!! They only make a small batch and they don't last till the end of the day so you can't order extra. Made me really sad . Was gonna skip dessert but then realized if the cornbread was that good how can the peach cobbler not be awesome. Sure enough.. I was definitely right!! It was not super sweet even w the vanilla ice cream. I'll probably ask for another scoop of ice cream if they let me. Small mom and pop shop but definitely worth it. Very Americana vibes with lots of patriotic decor. Not mad at it at all.. besides what's a good ribs and steak without USA!!

We were immediately greeted by very friendly staff who immediately gave us a menu. We ordered the nachos and a chicken sandwich and while waiting played some pool. The bar was not very populated at the time, but it was difficult playing pool because it was very close to the tables that did have people and you did not have enough room to play and go for all the shots you wanted to. Thankfully there was pool to keep us distracted because the food did take around 35 minutes to be delivered, even though the place was not busy. The food itself hit the spot and was exactly what we were looking for. The nachos had great toppings and the chicken sandwich was very crispy. There was also a band playing that night who sounded good. All in all we took it as a neighborhood friendly spot with nice staff and decent food. Next time we are in the area we will make sure to stop by.

Every wall is covered with unique interesting art- mostly animal theme. It's cooler than a dive bar and with quality food. My friend and I tried the pickle martini I read about in other reviews. Glad I tried it, but probably won't again. Espresso martini was delicious. Wild Boar Sloppy Joe was definitely worth the mess. Service was friendly and courteous.

We ordered: +a slice of banana bread - this was wet and soggy, so not sure how this is even available for sale +a slice of carrot cake - this was extremely dense and decadent, and good for any carrot cake lover +an oatmeal cookie - large and had a nice crisp/chewy texture +a chive scone - super dried out and had absolutely no flavor +a hibiscus drink - super weird beverage; not sure if it was mixed with something, but it was not enjoyable +and, a milk tea - this milk tea was not prepared well; contained some pearls I was curious about their sandwiches and their pizzas, but the latter is only sold as a whole, and not by the slice. All in all, we felt that the items were misses; not worth waiting it out unless you are spending a few days in the area or are a local. Note that there's usually a line, moving along at a slow and steady pace, and they allow only 1 party in at a time. There is no seating inside, as this is strictly carry-out only.
