Im a local. I come here for the beer. Around 30 on tap, changing selection and always a handful of IPA choices. My favorite is Pliny the Elder. The food is ok, not great. But I think the chicken tenders are the best on Earth. The staff is friendly. Good place to watch sports and good place to bring kids. This is my go to place for a lot of occasions. Updated 1/25/2014: I changed it to 4 stars because the food got better about 6 months ago, and Im here a couple times a month. Try the kettle chips instead of fries.

Plenty of good beers on tap. Dont order the cole slaw, you will be sorry. I had the pulled pork sliders and they were really good. Its a good bar but a bit of a sausage party on the night I went. Dont really think I will come here again but, it was not a bad experience. Didnt stand out. Worth a shot, your experience may be different.

They always have a great beer list. Also, we are vegan and we can find things to eat on their menu (limited but still something). Some other places we have been to make us sick after eating the fries but we have never gotten sick after eating fries from here and they are really tasty :).

We had a great time and great food last time we came here. I will try to take some pictures and make specific recommendations next time we go but I remember having an amazing tasting soup and a chicken satay appetizer that was good as well.

The food was less than meh and the service was lacking. Took about 20 minutes to get our check after we finished the incredibly bland meal. Wont be coming back. Cool atmosphere outside though. Saved it from 1 star

Had my doubts ... pretty empty ... but the beer selection was good and the Cajun chicken sandwich + sweet potato fries were vary nice. Waitress was very friendly ... overall good experience.

Reliable neighborhood bar&grill thats upped its burger game recently. Nothing fancy or spectacular. Outdoor seating but no view to speak of. Good place for friends to hang out.

Food is good but basic pub food. Generally a good beer selection. Not sure where else to find so many good beer options around this area so this gets an extra point

Very friendly, they happily let you adapt the menu items to what you want, and they have several good dark beers to choose from. What more do you need?

Food is tired and menu needs updating. Chicken salad has frozen popcorn chicken on it.... Great staff and fun beer selection. Food just needs help...

Melissa our server was great! Andrew was also very helpful and kind. The outdoor patio even allowed us to have our Husky right outside the gate.

Fantastic beer selection! The food here is on part with most other pub style food places. Id recommend any of the wraps and the black bean soup!

The patio temperature was perfect will a nice breeze. Chicken Pesto Sandwich, sweet potato fries, and Pliney the Elder. A perfect pairing.

Very nice food and many good beers to choose. Definitely a great place to watch sport events in a group while eating or drinking.

The beer is great but the food is just okay. The bar is crazy talk, I am 6 feet tall and sitting at it was uncomfortable.

Wonderful beer selection Tuesday nights are Brewery nights. They would get 5 stars if they brought the deviled eggs back

Good food. Beer is great too but a little expensive at $8.50 for a pint.
