    Elvis

    The older short lady was incredibly rude! While me and my family were playing pool, she ran up to us and yelled at the top of her ogre lungs, "it's $5 for pool after 8pm!! Are you staying or leaving? Or how are we going to deal with this here!" We all looked at each other very confused since it seemed like a fun place, but it put a real damper on our mood. But hey I saw Elvis.

    This is not an easy review for me to do- I wanted to like this place and had asked the Hubby if we could stop there a few times. Now- I'm sorry to say we won't return. When we arrived only one other party was there. There were still Mrs. Butterworth bottle on the tables from breakfast ( I liked those). The waitress came to our table and told us they only had tea and juice because the fountain was not working- that was ok, I ordered water, he had tea- she then said we have no straws- then the fun began. I tried to order the mushroom Swiss burger, but they were out of mushroom, tried to get fried pickles- they were out ,just ordered a cheeseburger with ketchup and mustard, Hubby tried to order fish, they were out, soup- not in season, ordered honey BBQ wings and onion rings- the only other customers ordered appetizers, potato skins, fried ravioli etc- they were out! We could hear them in the kitchen trying to figure out how to sauce the wings- they came out with it poured on top- Burger had cheese and mustard- she brought ketchup packets to the table and said they were out in the kitchen- when hubby picked up the packets there was a used one in them- our waitress did grab it and throw it when he pointed it out. Even worse- I went into the ladies room - the stalls were dirty, didn't lock or even close and there was no hand soap or paper towels- it really grossed me out! Maybe if you go to drink- the alcohol will keep you safe- otherwise don't go

    That biscuit is even taller than you might think....

The atmosphere was like being at home with good friends. I have to give most of the credit to April wow she was so much fun, singing and we all had a ball. April made super cocktails and we learned about a new drink that she said would make us ten feet tall, so I had a few and felt at least 16 feet tall. What a beautiful person to know and be around. Very positive vibes. The food was good, the staff were friendly and didn't mind getting my butt whipped on the pool table. It was a special evening I'll not soon forget so I'll have to come back and see my new friends again. I came with my nephew and made a new friend there from my hometown. You'll have a great time when you visit I promise! Maybe I'll see you there and have a cocktail on me. I'm Dan btw. Thanks again April for your kindness and attention.

    Dropped in for a drink and a bite. Sat in the cozy bar that is to the left, just as you enter. Good…read moreselection of bourbon. They normally don't give a price break when ordering a double shoot but, the bartender was gracious enough to give me a small discount. Had their cheese tray app, plenty of cheese, sausage, peppers and a few other tidbits. I love the atmosphere of their small bar verses the main bar in the main dinning area.

It was definitely a lively spot, although it was very loud, which made conversation a little difficult at times. Unfortunately, the food didn't live up to the atmosphere. Our table ordered a variety of items, including burgers, pizza, buffalo chicken pizza, a chicken pesto flatbread, quinoa bowls, and a berry salad. I ordered the chicken pesto flatbread, but it lacked flavor and I ended up asking for hot sauce to give it some taste. There was also a delay when the restaurant ran out of silverware, and we had to wait for plastic utensils. Out of our entire group, the only person who really enjoyed their meal was the one who ordered the berry salad. While the restaurant has a cool vibe and seems like a great place to hang out for drinks, music, and events, the food was disappointing overall.
