Steampunk style pub with eclectic and fun drink and food menu! The bar is awesome! The fixtures, wall, and even ceiling have so many steampunk details. You notice something new every time! I've always received excellent service. Be sure to check out all the rooms, including the basement.
Stay away from this place!!! The place is totally outdated, dirty and filthy. I literally had to wipe the table myself with wet wipes, because our hands were sticking to the dirty table. There was no hostess at her workplace when we walked in so we assumed that when we sit down the server would come to us but no, we waited for 10 minutes, no one came over to us. So we had to walk out and walk back in after seeing the hostess returning to her workplace, she literally said with poker face:"How many? Inside or outside" and then threw 2 menues on the table and left, me and my husband both agreed that she was high, she was obviously under sth.Our server didn't care about the service quality and we realized why only at the end, the automatic 20% gratuity after 10pm (I don't understand why your place equals itself to some fancy places like Country clubs or 4*-5* Restaurants with 20% automatic gratuity). And we usually do leave 20% tip to the servers but we would like to have such an option ourselves and if not it's obvious that the service should be then excellent, but not here...My photos show how horrible and outdated the furniture looks like, I literally was seating straight in order not to touch the booth with my back. Ladies room had a broken lock, which I noticed only after someone broke in while I was inside, there was toilet paper around trash bin, and the floors were super nasty, God knows when they were washed last time. The whole place needs complete renovation, it needs deep cleaning, and dusting and if you think that by building the walls from pannies and having such a beer variety (which is obviously not as many as you advertise on your web site) you think your business will live? We came here on Saturday and the place was almost empty, which now we understand why.The food that we ordered came super greesy, undercooked. My beer glass was dirty so I had to drink it from the straw. I will give you a free marketing advice: with such a beer selection you don't do samples and you don't have beer flights, do you even have a marketing manager? This is number ONE thing you have to do if you want customers to come back! You have to have customers try your beers and then like them, and then come back for that beer, but with purchasing the whole glass how people are supposed to find a beer of their taste?!I'm attaching the photos so that you can see yourself everything. We are obviously not coming back here! We were so disappointed that night that we started to look around and there is actually very nice place called Garage, it's literally a block away, so we went there, it had a live music and that place totally made us forget our bad experience with Kickbacks!
This place is right up my alley, I wanted to love it. Beer was great and features an awesome basement cellar of stellar beers. However, the only thing worse than the service was the food. The panini was a hoagie bun squeezed between books- not even toasted.TLDR Beer: excellent; Restaurant: poor.
A very steampunk decor makes this an awesome place to have drinks and dinner. Their menu is interesting and has choices for all taste buds!! Our wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Slightly pricey but overall a great place to visit and try out!!
Wow! Most amazing menu and food. I love different stuff and boy do they have options for that. Really enjoyed the steampunk vibe. Had Emma as my bartender today and she made the whole experience unreal. Took me on a quick tour (they were slow at 1PM). She took me down to the cellar and I saw the largest beer collection in the world. I will be investing in a locker in the locker room as soon as one opens. Neat circular room with a vintage wood table and 8 chairs that anyone that rents a locker can use at anytime they are open.
The size of this menu is disrespectful to the chef. And the microwaves and cheap liquor are disrespectful to the customers. The prices are outrageous for what the food is. The alcohol is outrageous for the bottom shelf liquor that is used. Service however was on point. Get real drunk and you won't care.
Food was ok. The menu is huge. The beer list is bigger. Ordered pasta with cajun alfredo but it didn't have any alfredo on it. The queso and pierogi appetizers were good. The atmosphere is pretty cool. The ceiling was covered with beer tap handles. Tons of them.
This was always my favorite bar when I worked downtown, but it had been forever since I was last there. Even though some of the original novelty of the steam-punk theming had gone for me, the bar has a great vibe and decent rock music playing. The menu is far more extensive than I remembered and the (comfort) food we ordered was great! Still a massive selection of beers, though maybe not as many as I remembered
A friend and I went here after a local pub closed at 2 am. We ordered an order of lumpias (added picture of menu) menu say it comes with 7. when it came out there were only 6. We brought it to the attention of Laura (server) she said sorry about that, let me tell the kitchen. She came back and said that the cook said it was 6 it didnt matter what the menu said. O...k....We ordered... food took a while, we were thinking it was due to several ppl showing up all at once from the local pubs. We asked to see a manager, she explained that they had just changed how they made their lumpias and that they were waiting for new menus. We let her know that the menu caused confusion and she stated that we weren't the first guests to identify the problem. She said the owner was on site and she would notify him again. She ended with "I will get you "1" lumpia".The issue was not a lumpia. It was about the professionalism and how the staff addressed the concerns of the customer.When our one sandwich finally came out( fat julian)it was cold. The fries that came after, was the only thing Warm, not hot. We didnt finish it or take it home. Then they also charge 20% gratuity after 10pm, no matter how big ur party is.Over all, the service was bad, the server was nice but condescending. food was unsatisfactory. Will NOT be back.
Went there for lunch. The building and decor is really cool. The floor in the booths were sticky and smelled like a bar. Which I guess is expected for the amount of open/close time. But, the food is definitely lacking.
