It's actually in a house that looks like a house, and it has a large outdoor space with plenty of seating and great beer garden ambiance.

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.

This was the last stop for the day after about 400 miles of driving and boy are my arms tired!…read moreWe're spending the night not too far away but before that, a beer to wind down and try to relax. The space is comfortable and enjoyable. We'd already eaten dinner, so this was drinks and relaxing for a bit. I enjoyed my Wheelhouse Wheat and Mrs. K. had a non-alcoholic cream soda. We had a great hour and will definitely return. A true delight. [Review 688 of 2026 - 341 in Kentucky - 25869 overall]

I had time to grab a single pour/pint as well and it was also nice. Some good stouts, lagers, and IPAs. Decor is nice, place is clean. I think the only thing holding them back from a full 5 in my book is a few simple fresh food options (some pretzels or tortilla chips, etc.) would be nice--but that's a minor point.
