    Steak Salad

    My absolute favorite location! Staff is always nice. Food is top quality and always fresh. The atmosphere is always chill and inviting. I've been coming here since it first opened, and it never disappoints.

    Cheeseburger and fries

    Service was amazing. Food is great. The Korean portal is spicy and tasty. Burger is done to perfection. Fries are good as well. Would highly recommend.

    One of my favorite places to enjoy some very tasty food and beverage, living close by is a convenient bonus ;-) This day I treated myself to a fantastic lunch because of a healthy update from the doctor sooo I ordered something special, the tacos were very delicious and the Pub Ale was and is my current favorite, service was quick (I sat at the bar) and being familiar with the menu aided in my ordering, they had sports and movies rolling and the decor is reflective of the diversity of those who regular this business...I like it here

    Had to call multiple Mad Ducks to find Honey Pot in stock as they are again struggling to stock beer. Was excited to find Clovis had it. Surprised to find the new service fee they are charging...... where is the discount for every-time we dine and can't get the beer we wanted because it's out of stock? Come on guys no one is coming in for the food. We come in for the beer.

    Ceviche

    I've been frequenting Baby Duck since they first opened. I love the personalities of each of the locations but I like this one most if I'm in between meetings but don't want to go home...I pop into this location to grab a bite, cocktail, and work on my laptop. I enjoy ordering off the monthly specials menu to switch it up. This visit I had the ceviche with plantain chips. It was the perfect amount for me to finish there without feeling like I had too much. The flavors were so good and I loved the combination with the plantain chips! The bartenders are always friendly and although I didn't get a cocktail this time, I feel like I've tried most of that list and you can't go wrong with anything :)

    Goat cheese plate 7-27-23
    Sara B.

    Came here with a group of 5 for drinks and some food. I ordered a pineapple passionfruit milk punch. It was pretty good. I then ordered a pretzel for an appetizer and bread pudding to share. Coworkers got the goat cheese plate and calamari. The pretzel tasted stale. Like it had been in the freezer awhile. But I still ate it! The calamari was quite generous portion from my previous experiences of ordering it at the Marks/Herndon location. And the goat cheese plate looked amazing. I tried a few pieces of the dried apricots. They primarily have beer for drinks but they had a few wines available. I wish more breweries would take us wine drinkers into consideration. They did not have any Moscato on menu and no sangria. Their only margarita was not a blended one, just on the rocks. But the pineapple drink I got was sweet enough for me. Bread pudding was heated through and tasty. Are servers were prompt and friendly. They made sure our drinks and water were full.

    Cute little table for two the kids sat at

    Came here after two cities marathon. Service and food were fantastic. Loved the ambiance and the waitress let our kids sit at their own kids table! 10/10 recommend.

Parking is exactly what you'd expect for downtown, so just make sure you lock your car and don't leave anything visible. We went around 5 PM on a Thursday. It started fairly quiet and gradually got busier throughout the evening, but it never felt overcrowded. They do have a rule that if there's a waitlist, your time may be limited to about two hours so they can seat other guests, which is reasonable for a place like this. The drinks were fantastic. I honestly didn't have a bad drink all night. They offer cold drinks, room temperature drinks, hot drinks, and just about every type of spirit you can think of. The cocktails are very creative, and the bartenders will actually warn you ahead of time if a drink has flavors they think you might not like, which I appreciated. The bartenders were excellent and really knew what they were doing. We had a spicy margarita, mojito, whiskey smash, an ube cocktail, and a few others, and all of them were great. Prices were fair for the quality, creativity, and overall experience. Not cheap, but definitely not overpriced either. One thing I really respected was that they had Narcan and fentanyl test strips available on-site. You don't see that often, and it shows they actually care about people's safety. If you're looking for craft cocktails in Fresno, this place is definitely worth visiting. I'll definitely be coming back.

Thank you for making my first time there such a great time.Request Kennedy yall!!

Seating off to the side if you don't want to sit directly at the bar. Returned a second time on a busier night, staff is friendly, drinks are being made promptly, crowds is lowkey chill vibes.

Idk. *shrugs* This time we got: Pad Kra Pao, Pad Se-Ew (beef), Yellow Curry (chicken), and Thai Style Papaya Salad for dinner. We each had a different favorite dish out of the three entrees... Pad Se-Ew was mine (noodle head), followed by the Pad Kra Pao (perfect flavor, not too strong on the basil, egg fried just right), then the curry last (I prefer green or red more). The salad was good, refreshing. No spice whatsoever, but we knew that (one of the girls can't handle as much spice). The winner of our dinner? The Thai Tea Flight! I love the option of flights anywhere I go. It gives you the chance to try all the flavors you're curious about without committing to one that you may or may not like. Man... these were amazing. If I had to rank the flavors-- it was a toss-up between the Original Thai Tea and the Ube but since this is the battle of the Thai Teas... the OG gets a slight edge. Both freaking amazing though (we ordered full sizes of these after). Obviously Thai Iced Coffee comes next but coffee should be it's own category. It wins on its own as coffee. The Green Thai Tea came in last for all 3 of us, I believe. It's good, just not as good as the other three... and it's definitely more fragrant? Idk the right word for it. Anyway, I'd make more stops here just for these drinks alone now that i know how good they are. Staff was amazing. Friendly. Attentive. Restaurant still very aesthetic. Their plating of the meals? A+. It was a very good dinner.
