I had a very cheap good whisky sour . Apparently the beer is good, but I don't like beer , so I asked the bartender . The people are very nice as well .

When you get here go to the bar to order your food from the bartender . They're friendly , like Bob, and if its your first time they'll show you the ropes.

Great "local" place. Lots of charm, good food, good service , & cold beer ! Felt right at home!

"Serves daily home-style specials and delightfully greasy fish sandwiches . A crowd of regulars packs the bar on weekends for beer , mixed drinks and live music ."

Keith Hosey

Great bar food , cheap beer . If you're using a groupon or splitting the check, you better have cash because they don't know how to use the computer-machine-thingy to handle that.

Dan Schroerlucke

Starting July 9th, Craft beer Tuesday's will be $2.50 per pint. Still a good deal for Southern Tier 2X IPA .
