Theres a lot to like about this place. Location is easy. Parking is good. Beer selection is quite good, having one of my favorite craft beers! I highly recommend going here for a beer on tap. Service is very good. Its clean. Its not too noisy. It wasnt too full. We could get a seat no problem on a Sunday night for dinner time. We both felt quite comfortable in there. If we just had beers, Id be quite pleased and would return time and again, and give it 5 stars. But this is the second place in town that weve gone out to resulting in a tummy ache, ever. My wife had the steak French dip sandwich. Shes had a tummy ache all night and into the next morning. I forget which beer she had right now. Note: We had a problem with a locally crafted beer at two other places. Both of us had headaches from that other place drinking just two of the same beer on tap there, therefore it could be the beer here too, she had a different beer than me or possibly the food. No headache this time. Tummy. Do I know its the food? No, I cannot prove anything. It was a singular experience. Not enough. But I feel obligated to share all the good and the questions of our experience. Im sorry because I do like the place otherwise. But Second issue I personally have is that it seemed to be known for the food, and even takeouts are seemingly quite popular. I set my expectations slightly higher than ordinary. I had what looked like a dish I could love. I included a picture of it. A burger open sandwich smothered. It wasnt anything to write home about. Not impressed but Id love to be. It had various Mexican food styled chips and condiments with the dish. "Bar food". Its OK. It fills the belly. I ate all of it. But I cannot give it a high rating for food, it simply wasnt delicious. I know thats a personal and subjective comment. Sorry. Good news is that while my wife had a tummy ache, I didnt. I felt full and satisfied. I think its worth giving the place another try. Ill give it 3 stars for now. Because it was as likable place, all-in-all. And hopefully try again and feel better about it. I do like the atmosphere and the beer. Id give it at least a 4 star for that.

We used to love the food here, but things have gone progressively down hill. We used to love the steak on Friday nights. It wasnt your average "bar" steak. It was a great cut of meat, and I loved the sauted onions on top. We were there for the Friday night steak special a couple of times this summer, but the food quality was very poor. The steak was fatty, and the cut of the meat was poor. First we thought it must have just been a fluke for one night, but when we went back again, and the food was still bad, we were very disappointed. Just last week we ordered the French Dip sandwiches. Not the Tuesday night special, but just the regular one off the menu. What little meat was on the sandwich was dry and mostly just crumbs. There was no "sliced" to it. We basically had a bread sandwich with a sprinkling of meat. Again, very disappointed. This was truly one of our favorite places to eat, until the quality of the food declined so much. I would love to see them get back to what they were doing a couple years ago.

Absolutely wonderful! Had it delivered last night! So glad to have a delivery place that has such fantastic food! I cant believe we didnt know about this place, we thought we knew all the places, especially one thats been around so long. New favorite place! Had the steak sandwich and club. Really well made and flavorful. We also had the French onion soup complete with bread and cheese to top it yourself. The soup was fantastic! For dessert we had the salted caramel cheesecake with pretzel crust- devine! Delicious! Highly recommend!

I come here often during the Football season, karaoke on Saturday nights and for breakfast, lunch, and bar snacks. This place is by far the greatest local secret the Springs has to offer. The steak and eggs are divine along with the tortilla soup for a lighter fair. Every bar has nachos, but these nachos have their own originality and are on point. I cannot begin to describe my love for OTB. Thank You!

The elephant ear pork tenderloin is the absolute best in Colorado Springs! We keep going back week after week. My wife orders something different each time and she has NEVER had a plate that she didnt like. I order the pork tenderloin almost every time. (The waitresses usually dont even give me a menu). The owners are great. The service is excellent. We love the place.

Looks like a bar, eats like a fine restaurant. Food is delicious and made from scratch. Ive payed more money for worse food at a lot of other places in town. I wouldnt have expected this hole-in-the-wall bar to be a top notch dining experience but it surely is. If youre looking for a bar with good food or just a great breakfast or lunch stop, look no further.

A place that delivers to me that isnt pizza of Chinese! Not that i dont love the other two, but this was a game changer for my days when I just cant be bothered to cook. Portions are big, variety is great. The only negative thing I can say is the fries were a little soggy, however, that could be explained by the travel from their kitchen to my apartment.

Just ordered the fish & chips and kids chicken tenders...delicious!! The only reason I ordered from here was because it was available for delivery through dine-on-demand, but Im definitely going to pay a visit here soon. So far the best of the two Ive had since weve moved here from Texas.

Amazing food. And best of all the, integrity. They forgot about the salsa and about 45 mins later they showed back up just to deliver it. It was an honest mistake, one I wouldnt have blinked an eye at. But they went above and beyond to bring it back.. Thanks!!!!

Nice atmosphere, nice place, handful of TVs, standard to above average bar fare with breakfast until 1-pm. Breakfast looks good. Well staffed. Would suggest for a low key outing. 2 pool tables and 3 nice dart boards. Food is 5-$11.00.

We are a very busy family with kids etc. Have ordered in from here 3 or 4 times now. The food is great for the price and we are never disappointed. Going out costs so much money. You get more for what you pay for here. It is great food!

Went here on a whim, and had exceptional food and service. The pictures online dont do it justice. Cute and small with a seemingly rowdy bunch of regulars. Waitress was wonderfully attentive and the food and so delicious. Well be back!

Go here for the food! Whoever the owner has hired as cooks do an amazing job, and the service is just as good. Ive ordered takeout a few times, but have also been in there to shoot pool/darts and it has been a great atmosphere!
