Worst experience weve had in a long time. Our server was very friendly and I believe she was put in a bad spot due to a purposely misleading statements about a $5 off voucher for parking. Even though multiple verbiage (Pictures attached) that states that parking in the lot would result in a $5 savings at there bar, they chose not to honer. On top of that, whom I assume is the manager, was extremely rude and became indignant because people had questions around their misleading signage. He was quick to say they dont run the lot; but the lot uses there name specifically! So are you telling me that you have no control over that? Im sure this will have little effect, but my hopes are it might spare others from falling for the trap. Based on his tone Im sure he gets asked this question a lot and he became clearly upset when we said there should be a statements that says that this offer isnt valid at home events. He appeared to become confused when asked when would there be event parking if it wasnt home games...? Long story short go to Town Hall across the street, better food, service and experience. This is what we get for the changing up our pregame; lesson learned... Next time save your time and money, park on campus because its the same price and youll get better food and service and the many more options all within walking distance of the stadium. Free shuttle isnt worth more expensive parking, bad service and OK food.

Great location for starting and ending attendance to a sporting event at either TCF Bank Stadium or the soon to be new stadium for the Minnesota Vikings. Now that the light rail is nearby you can throw in Target Field as well if you want to avoid the massive headache of trying to park near the ballpark. There is plenty of parking behind the bar or nearby as well, and its affordable. Im not the biggest bar food eater, but they have a hidden little gem that may or not be on the menu. It is called the Chicken Penne Pasta. Its delicious and I enjoy it every chance I get. If you like a little heat, theyll add a dash of buffalo sauce to the sauce and this is my favorite! Its known as "Buffalo Bills Chicken Penne Pasta". My golf league partners enjoy the "Joey Wings", so you might try those if chicken wings are your "thing". Staff is excellent at making you feel like a regular and I often see them recognize out of towners who are just in for a sporting event or business trip. If youre looking to turn the dial up on the night out...request a "C-Bomb"...you wont regret it!

This bar doesnt give a crap about its customers. Weve been here a couple of times and been TOWED TWICE. Paid each time but the little ticket wasnt positioned exactly correct. People there are SO many other bars around here dont risk it, you think you are doing everything right and then you get towed. The lot is a 10 minute drive, the people are beyond unfriendly, and it costs 300 dollars. I dont care how good this bars food or drinks are they ARE NOT WORTH 600 dollars (again weve been towed twice even though we paid and were on time each time). Update on previous review about towing: This is not a very friendly establishment. After having my car towed twice, I contacted the bar about changing the policy so this doesnt happen to more customers. They said "we cant do anything," which is a SHAME. They could have come to our defense and tried to fix the problem, but instead they tried to guilt me into feeling bad for giving the lot a bad review. Shame on you.

Went there two times today. Once pre Guns and Roses concert, once after. Left the first time, because it was swamped. Post concert was a completely different experience. Drink wait was minimized to a couple of minutes. Staff was extremely warm and inviting. With out a doubt, I will be returning here next time Im in the area. A+++ all around.

Great place to watch the game. Excellent service. Good prices. Surly, and Two Hearted on tap Buffalo wings were great. "Joey Style" added a nice char to the fried wings off the grill. The only thing sub par were the nachos. The chicken was dry and stringy, and the cheese was almost solid. Everything else was great. Will gladly return.

My fiancé and I love going here! The bar staff is great, one bartender even remembered my fiancés drink order! Even though buck hunter is gone, there are fun bar games. I recommend grabbing a beer, a cup of wild rice soup, and play around of pinball-- you will not be disappointed!

I like coming here for happy hour with my co-workers. Its spacious and usually not over crowded. They have a good happy hour menu and servers are friendly and attentive. Also, they show all of the UFC PPVs here for free, which is amazing. One of my favorite neighborhood bars.

Drinks were cheap and fast even though it was pretty busy. The food is good for a bar, I wouldnt go for the food itself. The atmosphere was quiet but lively, it was a good place to talk and drink with some food

Was an ok place to get lunch. Service was slow, especially for it being after lunch and hardly anyone in the place. My burger was burnt a bit but still edible.

Tiny portions, expensive, and lacking staff. Try somewhere else after softball or for an evening out.

The Joey Wings are amazing and if you play Pokemon GO they drop lures for you periodically.
