Don't be in any hurry! I sat down at a table and waited...waited...waited...After fifteen minutes and not even being given a menu I got up and left. They were busy but with only one guy taking care of all the tables I may not have the time it requires to "dine" there. I don't know if they can't get the help needed or they just operate that lean. I have heard about a number of employers in this corner of Kansas that want to hire people but can't find applicants for the open positions. However, I don't have the luxury of a two + hour lunch. I wanted to give them a try but will continue going elsewhere. Subway, Pizza Hut and a Mexican restaurant (that's pretty good by the way!) are within blocks.

(sorry no pics...I was hungry). You have to ask for toppings and condiments. I was here during St. Patrick's Day and they had a Cornbeef and Cabbage special ($9) and guests were loving it. Smelled AWESOME!! This place is a must stop by if you happen to be in Hiawatha. This bar is like Cheers....where they know your name. *the mixologist Jonathan, makes an excellent Gin Gimblet!

My husband said it was the best restaurant bull fries he's ever eaten! Steak were all cooked perfectly. I don't know anywhere else around for $12.99 you get steak, baked potato, salad & Texas toast.

If you are paying by card they up charge you each time. Prices of the drinks are very inconsistent. The vending machine states to put your money in at your own risk. They have no problem taking the money but both the candy bar and chips got stuck and didn't fall. In my opinion the patron's deserve an establishment that is worthy of their hard earned money.

Well, as a visitor to Topeka a bartender from another bar suggested it to me and a friend. After…read morewe left he must of had a good laugh. This is a very dark social clique that if you aren't wearing all black, have at minimum 12 tattoos and 6 piercings you might stick out. Non the less we made our way to the bar after talking our way out of a $20 cover charge for a no name performer. Under the guise of we were only going to have one beer and use the bathroom. I have to admit atmosphere was respectful and bartender seemed amused we were brave enough to even be there. We had our beers, a few laughs with the bartender listened to some local talent opener dj's and then on our way. In my day this group were known as goth, today it's Emo. Bottom line we're all people and with a little mutual respect and humor, it's all good. Enjoy. Humanity shouldn't need a disclaimer, just be a good person. Cheers.

Because we had a baby with us, we were escorted into a separate room and placed at an oversized 8-person table for four people. Before I could even sit down--let alone receive or look at a menu--the server aggressively pressed me for our drink orders. Expecting guests to order drinks when they haven't been given a menu or even had a chance to sit down shows a lack of basic hospitality training. To make matters worse, the floor underneath our table was covered in leftover food from previous guests and clearly hadn't been swept. Between the rushed service, the isolated seating, and the unsanitary conditions, we decided to get up and leave. We won't be returning.
