Friday afternoon 3:30pm: I had high-hopes this would be a vibrant experience; I left wondering very perplexed. First, it wasn't the easiest place to find; the signage made little sense "CANTEEN"; WTF is that?
Pulling into the parking lot and finding little to no parking; seems a construction project closed the main parking lot behind the building? The angled spaces immediately on the right make absolutely no sense; they should be perpendicular so I can back out of the space; otherwise it's nearly impossible to maneuver out of the spaces.
I was impressed at the size of the building and its open-air concept with outdoor seating but was still confused to its design and purpose; I found the restrooms, but there are also 3 showers adjacent; WTF are all the showers for?
I was disappointed by the beer selection; all IPA high-hop, citrusy, unfiltered options; DOESN'T WORK FOR ME. Tried to order food, "kitchen doesn't open until 4pm come back when it's open." SIGH!
Interesting on such a beautiful day only a handful of people there. Some good music playing softly on a speaker very hard to hear. WHY NO LIVE MUSIC on a Friday afternoon/evening?
Ordered a buffalo chicken-wrap and chicken fingers; the wrap was uninspiring and the chicken fingers seemed like they opened a bag of prepared frozen chicken that were re-heated in a toaster oven.
On this day there was a food truck arriving at 4pm, Roamin Wild Mobile Kitchen from Worcester. Unfortunately I'm not excited eating exotic game-food like alligator and other road kill.
The best thing about this place was the bartender was friendly and patient. I'm sorry, it has great potential but as-is it's dull and moribund, a FAIL for me. read more
