It's a very small place with a classic "U" shaped bar. Like most dives the seating revolves around bar seating, with a few tables in the back for a more social setting. Full bar, and some of the coldest beer I've ever had. They also have some decent bar food. Burgers, nachos, pizza, pork sandwiches, and pretzels. The good- drinks are extremely reasonable, and the food was great for bar food. Nice outside seating, plenty of parking. The Bad- Smoking, I know these small towns at till allow it, but yuck especially in a small place. Cell phone service can be nonexistent for some providers, and finally it took over an hour to get my food. I understand there's only one tender who makes drinks and food, but an hour is too long.

Yet they do have limited seating indoors (Ac/heat) and about the same limited seating under the patio (heaters only) but most is outdoors, like 1.3 acres worth. Outdoors has two music stages and plenty of seating. Dogs are usually welcomed as long as they behave, except at some special events where ADA dogs are only allowed. Beers are plentiful with more than 8 beers on tap. For those that aren't beer lovers they have a couple frozen drink options that are always tasty. Food trucks vary from day to day but the best way to keep up on trucks is follow their FB page. The owners are super nice and down to earth. They are always doing charity events which is awesome. Don't miss Oktoberfest which is super fun with multiple food trucks! I frequent this establishment about once every two weeks, even more when the weather is nice.

There was only one barista working, but she was incredibly friendly and had our drinks out surprisingly fast. My iced vanilla latte was solid, though nothing especially memorable.
