The staff was friendly and efficient. The menu selection was great. I absolutely loved my meal. Thoroughly enjoyed my experience

Service was friendly and prompt. Even other staff mad sure to ask if we needed anything and made sure our meal was good as they walked by. I'll definitely come back!

We came in for dinner on a Sunday early evening and had a good experience. The food was really tasty and our server was great. I felt like the food portions were generous for the price and the 80s/90s vibe was on par. They have a special for food and drinks every day, so I went with half price Sunday sangria. We sat inside, but they have a fairly large space for being in Beaverdale, and a nice outdoor patio area. Glad we live in the neighborhood as we’ll definitely be back!

While visiting Iowa we ate here. Fun 80’s retro environment with seating outside which was comfortable. Our newer server did a great job and paid attention to detail. We ordered the Nachos, Chicken Sandwich, Fried Avocado Burger and the Thai Chicken Pizza. All the food was good and it was good portions, however be warned that their style of cooking the Chicken Sandwich is to deep dark fry it. Not my favorite. Flavors were good. Would recommend. ??

Good 1/2 price pizza on Mondays! They were a little understaffed so I felt bad for our waiter, but he did his best and was busting his tail. Large drink menu. Cool atmosphere. Not sure if the pizza is worth full price on a normal day, but would certainly go back again on a Monday!

Amazing food, staff and atmosphere!! Lunch was speedy and delicious.

Went for lunch and had a blast. The 80/90s theme and vibe made me want to start a drink all day-day and get hammered. As for the food, nachos had a fresh taste and the chips were crisp all the way through. Thai chicken pizza was delicious as well as the Monte Cristo that came with a delightful spicy jam. Will definitely be going back many times!

Everything was great ! Definitely be back.

We visited this spot for a quick snack during our road trip. A big advantage is that it was open on Christmas Eve. The food was brought very quickly. It wasn’t super good, but for a quick snack, it was decent. Especially considering the fact that this is a pub, and not exactly a restaurant. The employees are moderately friendly, helped us pick some food to buy for a dinner table at a friend’s house in the evening.

Fun atmosphere and yummy mule drinks. Mondays are half Priced pizza at $5-$8 and mules are $1 off. 80's & 90's decor with matching music, the kids loved it.
