    One of the entrances - fear not, enter and find pool tables, plenty of taps, food and more.
    Jenn G.

    I REALLY want to give them 4 stars, primarily for the wonderful servers. Other reviews were spot on. The entrance is not super welcoming (see photo), but the review helped me cross the threshold. Once inside, I agree, clean and such. (But why was someone allowed to smoke indoors? Is it a club like places claim in Indiana? There is some sort of beer club with mugs hanging from the ceiling.) The food was good. Big, juicy burger with tasty bun and toppings. Fries were fine. BBQ chicken pizza seemed a little overdone. Main problem was that it took a fairly long time, even though not many other people were eating. Maybe they are accustomed to folks having several beers and taking their time; I had to get my kid to a hockey game. Someone sent along fried Oreos. Something I probably would never order, but tried one out of curiosity- yum!

    We came here to kill some time after our flight till check in at our hotel. Great service- even the lady who said it was her first day was really nice and checked on us frequently (even though we moved around a bit to play pool). Great regulars who were very talkative and got a hoot & a holler over the shot prices I mentioned from DC. S/o to Scotty with the Budlight bucket for welcoming us to Michigan! The lady who said she used to clean there was also very sweet. Everything here was reasonably priced. Got a bucket of millers, many shots of Jameson, played pool, & fed 3 people for under $100. We made sure to take care of the bartenders. We watched a man come in and try to give the staff issues about keno/trying to get money- the bartenders stood firm & handled the situation well. Food was decent. Not my favorite but my boyfriend really really LOVED the garlic Parmesan battered wings. They were not overly salty and wet like most places. They were crispy and lightly seasoned! Sooo many people raved about how good the food is so I'm putting a star on there because my group really liked it. I really enjoyed the basement bar look. If I could give any advice, I would make which doors are the entrances more clear- just any kind of sign. If I'm ever back in Michigan, I will be coming back here!!! Loved it!

    Chicago style pizza meat lovers. Yum yum. Get you some

    Such an awesome and funny place to go during our layover. Unbelievable food! You may want to share something because you get a lot. We had the Chicago style pizza. It was amazing. The servers where extremely friendly and made us feel like we were at home. Don't be afraid to come here. Can't wait to get back next time

    I love the food and the beer selection here. We live about 45 minutes away, but we visit monthly…read moreand always enjoy the food.

    First time visiting, it's easy to find and lots of parking. Parking is behind the pub, employee…read moreentrance is in the "front." We were here in December so the patio wasn't open but looks roomy with many picnic tables. We opted to sit at the bar because that's usually where we get personal with brew pubs we love to discover. We always search local brews when traveling and 9/10 times the bartender will greet us, ask if we've been there, make recommendations or tell us a bit about the brewery style. Not here. I'm not sure the bartender ever even made eye contact and pretty sure he wanted to be there even less than he wanted us to be there. We did get a few beer samples by request, but no recommendations, he didn't ask what we thought and he made us feel very unwelcome right from the start. However, once that bartender was relieved the new bartender was chatty and friendly to the new customers. We had finished our beers and meal by that time and just needed to cash out. So I would say maybe it's just that one employee. We had the pretzels. Kudos to the pretzel bread-- it was delicious. Beer cheese was pretty good, as was the mustard. We asked about the menu and what he recommends (still trying to be friendly and get him to warm up). He recommended the special menu, so we ordered the Blackened Salmon sandwich. It was okay/average. Fries were cold. We ordered the Table Talk beer and I enjoyed it. I'd say that the beer was the best part of the whole experience. Overall I'm glad we tried it but we wouldn't go back. If the bartender had been more welcoming and interested in sharing a bit more about the concept, we would give it a second try when we head out there again. It's always good to try other food items and beers, but the vibe doesn't warrant a second try. I can understand if a place is busy, but we were there at 2pm on a Saturday and were two of four at the bar and he didn't look to be super busy with the restaurant as a whole. It's always so disappointing when service falls so short on something that could be such a unique experience. Three stars for the beer and pretzel.
