Fire table on the patio
Steve M.

Winking Lizard always scores high on my list because the food is always good and the sheer amount of beer available is incredible. This location has two nice patios with fire tables, making it perfect for fall and winter. I don't visit this one as often as others in the area, but I never regret it when I do.

walked in empty maybe 2 people...waitresses were dressed well let's say i wouldn't bring family or…read morechildren theres(aka Hooters wanna bes) oh and little kids were there poor kids then all waiteresses / bartenders went into back room Bar was unattended for at least 25 minutes people coming in looking around like where's the bartenders.. way way to hot in there but most likely cuz waitresses were all hanging out if you get my drift

First impressions matter, and for me it was not the best first impression…read more Our waitress was nice but she was not very attentive... she also served us "tall" beers but gave us one regular size and then we got a tall beer... but charged us for two tall beers... then served nachos which were decent except that the pickled jalapeños were not prepped correctly causing myself to have a really bad reaction to it the next day. You guys have to wash them pickled jalepenos after you take them out of the can (assuming is was out of a can) ... BUT (and a strong "but" at that) the grilled chicken sandwich was actually decent. The food was good. I think maybe more attentiveness would suffice. And the manager there was not at all welcoming... told a buddy of mine that he can't serve him a drink but yet you're the manager? A good manager can do it all... and should be going around checking on tables and working the crowd... some of the best service comes when a manager gets involved with the customers and makes them feel wanted to be in their establishment... I get it if you can't cause it's too busy but trust me when I say it was not busy... it was a Friday night and the gym next door had more customers than this place. To top off the night my buddy ordered wings and took forever to get them, they were cold and had to have them get redone. Doesn't look good. The details matter. But it's ok I won't be going back to this place any time soon anyway. Appreciate the cleanse I got the next day! And the place is not bad as far as the tvs, the ambiance of the place really works well. Got pool tables and dart boards and huge tvs. Not bad.

There are bars, and then there's Clem's Pub--a sacred hall where pints flow like poetry and the…read moreworries of the world cease to exist. If heaven had a tap system, it would take notes from Clem's. The drinks? Cold, crisp, and poured with a reverence usually reserved for fine art. The Guinness? Poured with the precision of a master artist, each pint a velvety masterpiece that whispers, "Forget your troubles, you're home now." The atmosphere? A perfect balance of rowdy camaraderie and the kind of warmth that makes you wonder if Clem himself forged this place from the very fabric of good times. Clem's doesn't just welcome patrons; it welcomes family. But let's talk about what really sets this place apart--the raspberry cobbler. I don't know who makes it, and I don't care if it's baked by the gods themselves, but one bite will make you reconsider every life choice that led you to eat any other dessert. It's rich, it's indulgent, and it pairs surprisingly well with a strong pour of whatever magic they've got behind the bar. If I had a nickel for every night spent basking in the warm glow of this legendary establishment, I'd be retired-- sipping a pint, and toasting to the greatest bar in the history of forever. Clem's isn't just a bar. It's a way of life. A place where the drinks are cold, the stories are legendary, and if you're lucky enough to find yourself here, you're exactly where you're meant to be. A place where legends are made-- one pint at a time. Sláinte!

The Martyred Slaves of Time…read more It was our wedding anniversary. Time to break the decade-long suspense: "Strap it on, Darlin', we're headin' to the Roost!" Somewhere back in the mists of architectural time, some cinder-block builder wandered the state, stacking block, carrying hod, and built a whole bunch of bunkers. I mean bars. Each one situated at a crossroad, each angled to face, exactly, that crossroad. Genius? Or merely a stab at defying the soul-crushing monotony that is masonry? No matter, the Roost is bunker on the outside, 1950's rumpus room on the inside. Six guys sitting on one side of the bar, doing the round-robin smoking outside routine, like watching birds on the feeder, taking their turns. Younger bartender, full of charm if not grace. Old coot at the corner of the bar. (Another old coot, as I was there, too.) Each tavern comes with that one guy, who does the odd fix-em-up work around the joint for a couple free snorts. This was that guy. I wanted to ask him SO many things: How the years impartially grind you down, like a water-driven millstone, until you're nothing but bone-dust; how the half-century of guzzling Old Overholt leaves you literally perforated and yet you continue to spend your days filtering hootch through your liver; how in the end time crushes us all, rich or poor, farmer or king. Instead, I nodded and grunted, which is all you should ever do, your first time at the Roost. Which may be my last time at the Roost. Here's why this place gets four stars: You know it ain't elegant. Hell, it really ain't even that civilized. But what you want is a shot? A beer? Maybe some remote chance at illicit romance, whether inter- or intra-species? This is your place. They don't pretend. On any level. They know what you want. Cheap drunk. Dark, hence the bunker. No hassles. This is the kind of place where, if you were willing to look closely enough and had a keen eye, you might see how the edge of the bar had been diminished, ever so slightly, warn down by three generations of beer guts. Now that is something. Huh? Yeah, at least there's that. "Always be drunk. That's it! The great imperative! In order not to feel Time's horrid fardel bruise your shoulders, grinding you into the earth, Get drunk and stay that way. On what? On wine, poetry, virtue, whatever. But get drunk. And if you sometimes happen to wake up on the porches of a palace, in the green grass of a ditch, in the dismal loneliness of your own room, your drunkenness gone or disappearing, ask the wind, the wave, the star, the bird, the clock, ask everything that flees, everything that groans or rolls or sings, everything that speaks, ask what time it is; and the wind, the wave, the star, the bird, the clock will answer you: "Time to get drunk! Don't be martyred slaves of Time, Get drunk! Stay drunk! On wine, virtue, poetry, whatever!" -- "Big Chuck" Baudelaire
