Lots of pool tables and plenty of room to dance.

We knew we were going to love this place when a neighbor came out to distract his pit bull as we walked by. And when we stepped in to head the bartender explaining to a couple of other customers how terrified she is of clowns, we somehow knew we were going to have more fun here than we'd had all day. It turned out that bartender's name was Becky, and she's 1/2 of the couple who owns the bar. The other half is her husband, Waylan, who showed up later at the end of our visit. "Having a name like Waylan is like having the biggest cock," she said. Or maybe it was B who said that, I don't remember and my notes aren't very clear. :) There is quite a collection of bras on the bar, a recent development. "A while back one of the customers just up and took her bra off, and said she wanted to hang it up. So we did. Then other ladies started doing it," Becky explained. "Now boxer shorts have even started to join the collection." We ended up spending out entire visit chatting with the bartender about their history with the bar. We really enjoyed our time here. In addition to the great personalities, this is a fun-looking bar all around and I'de love to visit again when it's busier. In fact, here's how good a time we had -- when we first arrived we noticed the Silver Strike machine and put a few dollars in it to play. But we never got around to actually doing so! :)

I never should have listened to those who are not fans. My husband got 4 twisteds--2 chicken and one of each of the other flavors. They were all so good. And the fresh fried chips were delicious too. I got the fried swai. My husband is not a fan of fish but he kept stealing bites off my plate, it was that good. The batter was light and crisp. And the portion was huge. I LOVED the honey mustard coleslaw. I'm a slaw snob, and I have high standards. I look forward to eating the slaw again. The garlic Parmesan broccoli was good too. We will be back.

It was a good recommendation of some flavorful smoked wings. The place itself presented a cool atmosphere with an inside corner bar or sports bar vibe and a big patio with options to turn into a backyard bbq, sports party or chill hangout. Very cool versatility. The service was very typical of the friendly, chill vibe of the Midwest area. This place (and it's cat) makes happiness.

A secondary room a few steps down has a pool table and a few more round tables. There's a snack machine in one corner, and Golden Tee in another. I found this place to be friendly and welcoming, and very relaxing. If I didn't have so much to today do I could have spent hours here. Our bartender was a very friendly woman whose sister owns the bar. She was a big part of what made this the best find of the day. Their family has owned this bar since 1998.

I went in on a Monday and got a 12oz draw of bud light in a frost mug for $2. Hot damn! The bartender and the other three people seem to know each other really well, and are sharing stories of filthy strip clubs, which seemed to wrap up with "Ehh, that's Kansas for you" Side note: I now have a fear of strip clubs in Kansas. The ceiling is painted black, the tables are weird, and the decorations are generic bar crap, but I think the charm is that it's sort of a neighborhood bar that's not exactly in a neighborhood. It's dark in here and basically silent, but that could just be the Monday atmosphere.
