Great service and good food. Burgers and fries were especially good and fresh. The kids really liked the cheese sticks. Thank you for being open on a Sunday evening and accommodating all of us!

There are very few restaurants in the Chester area which is how my daughter and I ended up here…read more This is a fairly new bar and very big. Their drinks were good but if you are a beer drinker you are mostly looking at the normal, run of the mill lagers. They did have a couple of IPAs but nothing special craft brewery-ish. My daughter ordered a mule and said it was very good. We both ordered burgers and fries. The burgers were very good and sized well so we walked away satisfied. The service was really very good. The young lady provided just the right amount of attention and was super friendly. This place would be an excellent place to frequent if you were a local. They have a gaming room with electronic gambling machines but there is tournament sized shuffleboard along the back wall and it looked like it was free to play. Also soft tip dart boards if you enjoy that.

We tried this place for the first time under new ownership on Saturday…read more I ordered a pulled pork sandwich and it had mayo on it??? It was gross. I told the kid that waited on us to just get me a burger. I'm not sure if they used onion salt or mixed in the beef and it was awful. My husband ordered the Rueben sandwich and he said it was ok. The fries were ok and that is all I even ate. When my husband went to pay the check it was $50 and we didn't even drink any alcohol. We ate in Nashville frequently but we will never go back there. I kind of feel like they forgot where they were. Folks just want somewhere to grab a burger and not all sorts of different spins on old things.

I've been going to this place since I was 10 years old. The entire staff is amazing. Andrea and…read moreAngela, the bartenders, are as sweet as pie, and the owner Steve was my High School bowling coach AND helped coach me when I was 10 and did league bowling. I love this place so much. Here's a tip: If you want the bar to yourself, just play any kind of pop music on the juke box. Usually the regulars play some Nickelback or (insert any top ten worst bands alive) on the box, so if you wanna drive em out, just play that Wiz Khalifa/Miley Cyrus jam. Also they have slots now??? Oh, and also the beer is super cheap. WICKED CHEAP. (and the bartenders will make you any shot you could ever imagine)

Here are my highlights: 1) They have a new TouchTunes juke box with an amazing sound system. If you love great music this is your place. The PhotoBooth and Karaoke feature was a blast. 2) They also have two new pool tables and new dart machines. I'm not much of a player but I believe they run leagues. 3) On a scale of 1-5, the beer garden and outside bar is a 4.8. Really fun out door seating around the bar or to watch live shows on the outside stage. They also have a dance floor inside. 4) The food was good. It's definitely above average for a Sports Bar. 5) They also have Las Vegas Style slots and poker machines coming in a few weeks. It was a really fun high energy night. I can't wait to go back.

Great wall of TVs, cool double-decker seating, and cheap happy hour drinks. Just a good place to grab a beer and watch a game. But the hidden gem here is the beef nachos. Nothing fancy. Basic, simple, under $15, and they get something right that a lot of places don't -- a good nacho bite on just about every chip. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Good sports bar. Good prices. Great nachos. Next Up gets it. Bartenders are friendly and pour a good drink.

Pros: Cant beat the location and price....it was free since I was staying at the hotel. Staff was friendly and regularly checked up on us to refill coffees. Cons: Seems like the staff had a hard time keeping up with the food in the buffet area. 2 out of the 3 times I went up, the trays were half empty. I had limited time so not having food readily available was unfortunate.
