It was okay. The staff was very friendly. Everyone enjoyed the food, someone said the ribeye sandwich was fantastic. It was busy especially because it was Friday night but had to ask for menus multiple times until someone from our table just got up and got them ourselves, same with the drinks. Someone from my party played a song on the "jukebox" and when it came on they said one of the staff members "couldn't handle it emotionally" so they manually skipped over it. It cost extra to jump the que and my friend paid the extra to jump to 8th in line. They refunded half his money for the song choice but IMO should've been refunded all of it because they literally manually changed it after 30 seconds. It wasn't an explicit song in anyway. Honestly I would've gave it 4 stars had they refunded all the money for the song because I do understand it being a Friday night how busy it can get and everywhere is short staffed, so I'm not really faulting them for the slower service.

Good prices on good food. Got a really smackin patty melt, some cheese balls and a beer for like 15 bucks. Love that. It was pretty busy on a Friday evening, and it took our waitress a good 30-40 minutes to even offer to get drinks for our party. Luckily, another waitress came to the rescue and served us for the rest of the night. I would also like to offer a warning on good authority that the angry cowboy is even angrier in the morning after he’s had a few, if you catch my drift.

They seem to think its okay to skip your songs on touchtunes even though you paid like everyone else. How fluffing rude. Thats infuriating.

Cool little bar off the beaten path with good drinks, decent bar food, cute bartenders, a few gambling machines as well as a few pool tables. I'm not from the area and never would have found it without Google Maps. Anyway, we enjoyed our time there.

Good sandwiches and fries Local neighborhood bar Very clean and interesting Iced tea not so good We would go back. Glad we found it

Nice atmosphere! Fast friendly service. Had a Patty Melt and hot fresh delicious fries. Will return for sure!

Pulling up to this place surprised me as it is in a residential area. Inside had a Western theme and very friendly people. Service was good. Well worth the stop.

A visit here with family to their local watering hole. We did not eat here, but it seems like the run-of-the-mill local neighborhood tavern. Plenty of room, lots of TVs, and a pool table round this place out for the full bar experience. Definitely a place to get a taste of the local flavor of the area.

Google reviews brought us here as we escaped travel during an ice storm. All the great reviews were true! Great service! Sweetest waitress! Wonderful burgers at a great price! The crowd present even in icy weather speaks volumes to how great it is! Absolutely recommend! Even the music playing was awesome!

Down to earth local bar. Prices are amazing. Great burgers and onion rings!
