I really enjoyed the country Benedict. Eggs were cooked perfectly and they pour on a healthy serving of delicious gravy. I enjoyed the biscuits vs English muffins. Probably should have asked for the hashbrowns to be crispy. I wasn't able to finish the mound of hashbrowns. Staff were friendly but not super attentive. It was an early Friday and not very busy. Definitely will stop back to explore more of their menu. Everything was spotless and they are now open for dinner Thursday - Saturday.

It has more things of course but they're pretty much afterthoughts it seems. A lot of ways to prepare these and what to put on these is the coolest thing about it. They even have a vegetarian one so they can get in on one that isn't meaty. Burgers make up most of the menu. It's got quite a few appetizers to try before getting one. There's fries obviously. Also cheese curds and hummus. Those not wanting burgers can get chicken sandwiches. It's about $3 for bottles of beer. There's not a whole lot to choose from besides the basic corporate ones. It's about $15 for the Black Bean Burger. We got these and fries. A few things come on this burger. There's goat cheese which I left off, along with lettuce and tomatoes. Got to say it was better than expected. It's located in a strip mall on Essington but it's bigger than it looks. There's a burger okay for vegetarians.

A simple menu of greasy classics. The prices are cheap and that's the best thing. Certainly a bigger place than expected. It's located in a strip plaza but takes up a large portion of it. The bar goes way back when you get inside and there's plenty of tables. In the front are the games. You can play pool or slots. It's about $6 for a basic cocktail. They also have a few specials. It's about $5 to get an appetizer. We got the Chips And Salsa. A lot of the menu is meaty. They have things like frozen pizzas but also pastas. Has enough room for large groups. It's located on Jefferson Street in a strip plaza. They're open later than most other places and even later on the weekends.

Everything was going great until the waitress told us if we weren't staying for the band we could get our money back from the bouncer because we shouldn't have had to pay! We didn't ask her for our money back she brought it up. She told the owner and he came over asking if he could buy us a free round instead of giving our money back and we said no we were okay and didn't want the free drink as we were ready to leave. He didn't like that my sister said no to the free drink and called her a weiner. Very unprofessional of the owner of the bar. He told us he has to pay $1,000 for the band so he didn't want to give the money back and my sister responded "that's not our problem" and he got mad and slammed the door and told the bouncer to give us money back as we left. He was completely wasted as well. As an owner maybe you shouldn't be wasted and calling patrons in the bar childish names and it was only 8:30pm!
