good place see. sports enjoy there work there as dishwasher cone see me Tex Velasquez 5pm my shift start 6 days on cooks are crazy lol love y'all jerks

Just had their Kentucky Bourbon Burger, and found it to be the best burger I’ve had since moving here two years ago. Service was polite and professional as well.

Nice cozy atmosphere, great food and quick service.

Fine service. Interesting old bar. Cramped inside or is it cozy? ? Food was good. Burgers not as great as I hoped, the tasty pretzel bun overpowered it a tad. Fries were nice and crispy. Will come again and try other menu items.

The server acted like we were inconveniencing her when ordering our drinks and food, which was a disappointment because people don't go out to eat to be treated like dirt. I ordered their iced coffee vodka drink and it tasted like watered down coffee with the worst tasting alcohol. We ordered broccoli cheddar bites as an appetizer and those were the highlight of the entire meal - the only thing in my opinion that was worth eating. My husband ordered a burger well done and it was red in the middle and the hot turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy was absolutely disgusting. My husband tried some and agreed that it was gross so when the server asked if I wanted a box for it, I said no. She asked if there was something wrong with it and we both said it didn't taste good, so thankfully they took that off our bill. This isn't the same Cottage Bar that it was a few years ago and needless to say, we probably will not be going back. Disappointing.

Decent little hole in the wall for a beer if you don't like big crowds. Don't bring a date here that's for sure. Service with a smile but there will for sure be something wrong with your food. Go for a beer and gtfo outta there.

Love this bar, great atmosphere and the best burgers

I really had high hopes due to all the positive reviews but this place was a hole in the wall literally the ceiling was failing apart, the seats were beyond wore down, the kitchen staff walked outside several times with their aprons on, our waiter got all 3 orders wrong and forgot the 4th but he didn't charge me for the last order since he forgot to put it in before bring all the other orders out. In addition to the food being below average and bug being in my cousin's pop.

I’ve eaten here several times and found it cozy. Had a hamburger and it was very good. I like deep fried potatoes, but these weren’t that great. Service was friendly and fast. Last time there was only one server and it was busy. She did a fantastic job keeping up, checking on me several times. Opening at noon is a problem for me with the current hours as I like to eat an early lunch. Booths aren’t the most comfortable, and the restroom is a bit cramped.

Went for some after dinner drinks. Staff was friendly, plenty of seating and drinks were made well. Nice going back because I have not been here in a number of years.
