Giving them 2 Stars because the food was ok, however the location needs some cleaning and up keep and organization.The menus and table were sticky, thankfully I had Wet ones and wiped everything down.As soon as we sat down our waitress came to take our drink order and told us the kitchen was a backed up so our food would be delayed m. We decided to place our order right away and I am really glad we did because our food took a long time to come out.We ordered a kids BYOB with fries, Boom Boom Shrimp, Steak Quesadilla, Loaded Fries, and a kids Chicken Tender meal with fries.They didn’t have all the ingredients for the loaded fries so I told them cheese and bacon would be an ok alternative. They brought out everyone’s food and the chicken tender fries but no chicken tenders, we were told the chicken fell on the floor and needed to be remade.This restaurant doesn’t have a huge menu selection and it was kind of empty when we went so I am not sure why they took so long and had so many issues.I am not sure I will be back.

We often stop in for wings on our way home from donating items to the Salvation Army in Lakeland - and we ALWAYS have a happy experience - great food and great service!

Wow this place is something else. We went on Memorial Day weekend. Short staffed but that’s a whole other issue due to what’s going on. The food was barely survivable. The chicken was just about expired. Based on texture color and temperature it was under cooked. The shrink inflation is very apparent at this restaurant. Understandably a business must make money but 10 shrimp for $14 especially frozen medium shrimp not even XL Shrimp. You can tell all of the food was frozen cooked. No onion rings yet they have onions fries had little flavor nor tasted as if they had been fried. Drinks were over-poured flavor of the beer was off due to the pour style. Needless to say expectations are typically lower due to it being a “bar style”. Overall decor is off and sticky due to everything being epoxy covered. There is an odd sewage odor that you smell when coming in the front door. Overall this bar has potential for the location but needs an extreme overhaul on foods & decor. Taffer might need to give this one a visit.

I went here 05/21/22 and this is what the chef sent out. Do not!!!!! order salad from here. They hid the rotten leaves under the semi good looking ones. I should have just called the health inspector. Disgusting. This was deliberately served.

Great place! The food was decent but our bartender, Sam was awesome! She was so warm and welcoming! Best of all she made my cocktail perfect!

Stumbled across this place and ended up being pleasantly surprised. We sat at the bar. The food was great but I can't say enough about our server/ bartender, Sam. She went out of her way to put our experience over the top. Talk about making us feel welcome!!!! I would definitely recommend it especially if she is working!!!!!

My family of 5 went to Davenport's Ale House on Memorial Day. We were promptly seated and the hostess, also our server, came back quickly to take our food orders. Our server, Lania, was very pleasant, but she didn't come back to the table to check on us during the 35+ minutes we waited for our food: most likely because she had no explanation for the delay. Before the final order was submitted, Lania did come back to the table twice.. First, she told us "I forgot, we are out of fries." Then, a little later she came back to tell us that she was just told that there were no chicken tenders. So, they were out of two key items from the short kids menu of 5 entrees. My husband's burger was supposed to be medium, but was well done with a bun; he specifically indicated temperature and "no bun". My taco salad contained onions. Not requested. We did not send anything back because we just wanted to get our check for nearly $70 and escape. There were only 4 tables of guests inside and maybe 6-7 outside, with at least 3 servers and 2 bartenders. Also, there was a manager, who we identified later, hanging out back talking to two others, when we drove into the parking lot. Then, we saw him floating around the restaurant but never made a single table visit. We also saw him standing just outside the front door smoking while talking to possibly another staff member. Again, in front of the front door of the establishment! We won't return to this business.

The food was good but th he wait was forever on drinks and food. It was not real busy and two people behind the bar and we still had to wait on a beer. Appetizer came out just a couple minutes before main meal. The white cheese queso was delicious though.

We went on Easter Sunday night and they treated us great. The food was amazing ?and everything came out quickly. The staff was very nice and is a nice friendly environment ?

Terrible so disappointed we won't be back. Fish tacos only hard 1 little tiny piece of fish the rest was all cabbage. My daughter had a taco salad the shell was burned. We ordered drinks they came after we ate and we kept asking it wasn't even buzy I see why.
