    Dirty little hole in the wall. I feel like I needed a shower after walking in.

    okay, here's the thing: after enjoying a variety of draft ciders recently Angry Orchard doesn't…read morequite cut it and boulevard wheat isn't what I was hoping for... bar has a nice view of the river if you're looking that way, otherwise it's a bar... a bar with lots of TVs (at least eight) assaulting my senses with the sad drama and simulated pagentry of the NFL draft. otherwise lots of natural light from a few well placed windows and some electric lights dangling from the high ceiling. regular crowd of regulars coming and going, drinking and driving, and all like that until I walk in and take somebody's seat for a disappointing cider as prelude to a patty melt and rings for a substantial upcharge (BK is same/same) burger is kinda mashy and juicy despite it's generally well doneness as all melty pats are :-) breads are tasty and toasty and represent the breed well although I prefer something a crustier and more substantial. the biggest area for improvement would be ring pricing; a little more for a little less would go a long way with me but I understand that onions don't grow on trees... final thoughts: the low production values of the NFL draft would make me stop watching football if I liked it, which I don't because of this type of f*chery.

    View is incredible, this spot is housed in a cozy historic building on the waterfront. The waitress…read morewas friendly and water glasses filled. The ravioli (a regional specialty) was crispy and came with a red sauce. I asked for my steak to be medium (and specifically said pink throughout). The "sautéed mushrooms" were from a can. There were almost no peppers. When I pointed out the overdone steak to the waitress, she said they get different cooks on the back and she said she would discount the bill (by $2) but did not offer to bring out a medium cooked steak. This was a while back. Hopefully the food quality has improved because the view is truly wonderful.

    having recently escaped an odd circumstance I was hesitant to jump into the unknown again but Grant…read morewas buying so how bad could it be? Shelby pulled a down east blackberry for me and everything seemed right with the world until the we were advised that the sampler wasn't available as advertised... yeah, fine, whatever, sub this and that and it's close enough because poppers, mushrooms, onion rings, and green beans... ordered up two breakfast burgers in the meanwhile and juan shows up to help with the sampler and stuff and when the burgers arrive they're smashed doubles which is a lot of meat under a hashbrown patty under the egg which grant said was too much but I manage to work my way around it slowly and with serious intent which was probably not the smart move because my heart started to hurt a little - good thing I'd got a second cider before attempting it... grant wasn't too impressed with the garlic-parm fries but I found the regular fries to be exceedingly regular and good with ketchup :-) dark inside with lots of TVs and heavy wood that somebody took a hot iron to leaving the lumbering equivalent of frat boy tattoos, it's dark outside as well but with strung lights over the sidewalk. grant says there's some tom foolery available off the bar and some sanctioned gaming as well. not my cup of meat but they don't make anyone play who doesn't want to. the regulars appear well attended and if I stayed near that could be an option.

Solid tap beer options, had a Four Hands Incarnation IPA, ordered garlic and parmesan wings. Beer was cold, wings were hot and flavorful, service friendly and attentive. Exactly the experience I was looking for on a pretty fall day.

They have an indoor space & outdoor seating, so you can come anytime of the year or weather! I couldn't help but notice how dog friendly this place is. Good to know for next time so I can bring my dog! We just had a drink an appetizer. You go up to the bar to order, and they give you a buzzer. No server fyi. The crab dip was good! By the time it was almost finished it started feeling like too much due to the richness, but it was good. Whoever made our drinks did awesome. I added soda to mine to make a spritzer. I'll be back, whether on a nice night or cool evening.

    The views and the vibes of this place are amazing- feels so cozy and homey and definitely a place…read moreI'd love to spend an evening. The staff were so friendly and the dogs are just the sweetest. However, I can't give this place more than 3 stars because the food was just not good. I had the fish and chips special and there was no flavor to it at all. My husband had a bacon ranch panini with the egg salad and couldn't get through it. We got a pizza for our daughter which she ate, but it truly just tasted like shredded cheddar melted on a big flatbread. If this place was able to upgrade their food then it would be truly amazing!!! We'd be happy to come back and have drinks but we won't get food again.
