    First off, this is a local bar & restaurant, so don't set your expectations too high. They're often busy but there are few other options around, which might explain that, because ... Food and drink: They serve average bar food. It's going to be greasy, salty and fatty. (They do have salads.). But don't grow too attached to any appetizer or entree. They update the menu item every year or two. The beer and spirit selection is ok. Service: Quality of service is generally good but can be hit-or-miss. Sometimes they won't check on you for 15+ minutes at a time. If they make a mistake, it's the customer's fault. I've never seen a manager or owner make the rounds to check on how customers are doing. Ambiance: It's laid back and often loud. You seat yourself. They have "arcade"-type of games for kids. They have a few tvs and will always show the local sports team. They have basic outdoor seating. There's TouchTunes but they'll turn off the music without warning, so don't waste your credits. Cleanliness/ upkeep. I've been going here over 2 years now and it looks the same as it always has. It's just a bar that serves food -- no reason to ever remodel or spruce up. In summary, if you are hungry and not that particular and live in the area, and maybe want a beer, then this place will do fine. I would not go out of my way for Waterton Tavern. There are plenty of good options up Wadsworth. It'll be interesting to see how this place survives as Sterling ranch and Roxboro continue to grow.

    3.5 Stars raising it up because service was great. So So food. Although their fries and Fried pickles were pretty darn good. And Service is great! My wifes Salad was joke and should have been a $5.99 side salad. My Club sandwich was really generic and sort of cold. Aint much choices down this way but this place is just so-so

    Reuben sandwich

    Awesome service. Decent food. I had the Reuben per the servers recommendation and it was fine. My husband had the bbq burger and gave it a solid score. Between the burger and the awesome service I rated this 4/5.

    Burnt fish and chips

    Food was basically burnt. Either that or they cooked two pieces in a fryer that had old grease that was shot. And the other piece of fish in a fryer that had new grease. I ordered the fish and chips. It came with three pieces of fish. Two of them were burnt. Why somebody in the kitchen would put these out on the same plate I do not know. The friend I was with got the nachos. The meat was very salty. The third person in our party got the turkey melt They said it was good. The server was very nice. Friendly and knowledgeable. But the food took quite a while. Probably will not go back. we went during lunchtime. 11:30 on a Friday afternoon. There were only about six tables in the whole restaurant.

We opted to go inside where it was quieter until actual people came inside from outside and then it was super noisy in there plus TVs and music. They need serious sound dampening in that room. The view obviously is spectacular, but it does not make up for the terrible food I ordered an open face turkey sandwich. When it came, it was on four pieces of sourdough bread that was barely toasted. It had about three thin slices of turkey. The kind you see at the grocery store deli counter. A lump of mashed potatoes, which were sadly the best part and some gravy. There was nothing to it and it was $17. No thanks. My partner got a prime rib dip sandwich with the Au Jus. It too was served on the same sourdough toast, which was weird but not the worst part. It was about a quarter inch maybe a half inch thick slab of way overdone prime rib. In one bite you're getting just fat from the edge of the prime rib. And another bite you're getting overdone prime rib. I heard them say that it was overcooked and that they were just use it for sandwiches. But they shouldn't have even done that it was so bad. I've never seen a prime rib dip sandwich that wasn't shaved meat. It was so weird to just bite into a chunk of prime rib on toast. Our server was very new and he let us know that it was only his third shift. But he knew absolutely nothing. Nothing about the menu. Nothing about the drinks. Nothing about what they had at the bar. Never came back to check on us during our meal and it was not busy in there. Then cleared our plates and just said I'll get this out of your way. He did not ask if we wanted any dessert or another drink, just took our plates and walked away. He has a lot to learn in the service industry and shame on them for not training him better on their menu and availability. I do not recommend this place one bit. Go for the golf skip the meal.

First, we asked for our favorite bartender Aaron from Littleton who had made the move to this restaurant, but were informed he already quit? Hasn't this place only been open a month? This is probably indicative of operational issues and poor management. Seated at the bar, which was staffed by 3 bartenders, we weren't even acknowledged for 7 minutes. Finally, bartender Troy came by and dropped off menus, but didn't return for a while. Eventually we received our cocktails, which were bland. I don't know if they were not made well, or if they were made according to a recipe, and the recipe is bad to start, but they certainly weren't worth $13 Food was also overpriced, and bland. Everything tasted like it was frozen. The oysters were not cleaned properly and we barely even touched them. Troy, tattooed girl, and long hair guy didn't even check in on us during the course of the meal, as they were trading off between talking to each other or being so busy other bar guests were neglected too. The decor can be best described as "corporate blah". It's nice, but not nice nice. Final issue: the ladies bathroom wreaks of sewage, the smell of which wafts through the entirety of the back restaurant. It made me want to vomit, and I felt so bad for the tables in the area which could surely smell it as well. After tabbing out, we stopped by Lansdowne Arms next door, and found out that this experience is super common since the reopen. Between poor service, low quality food, overpriced cocktails, and the literal smell of human excrement, we will not be returning. What a shame

More about that in a moment. ++ We've had both the Colorado and Philly Steak sandwiches. Both are killer good! Two thumbs way up! ++ They use the freshest ingredients, and it shows!

Finally got to check out their Colorado Philly that sounded so good. I have had a few Philly cheesesteaks that are this style with diced green chilies in it. Also called at other places Pueblo cheesesteak. I order that and some fries. The fries were a large portion. Too large for me in fact, but they were tasty. Kind of fat fries. Delicious with some ketchup, salt and pepper. The Philly however lacked flavor. Especially for one that had onions, bell peppers, chilies and cream cheese on it. That is all you tasted. The meat really didn't have any flavor and they were giant slices. Typically a Philly has more diced up small pieces of meat. In this case, they were like stripes. I think if the meat had more seasoning and chopped up more this could have been a way better sandwich. The bread was fresh and soft. It complimented the sammie well. Overall I would probably try something else from this truck such as the Rueben. That looked really good.
