Had an amazing experience her Saturday night. Our server was amazing!! so sweet and personable. At the end of our meal she said it was her first night!! We were all shocked, would've never known. Our appetizers were fresh and delicious. Cheese curds and pretzel bites were warm and fresh. Pickle fries were accidentally brought to our table but our waitress let us try them; they were also delicious. At this point we’re thinking it’s worth it just for appetizers!! Then they brought our food and I was taken away that I can only leave 5 stars. It’s such a cozy atmosphere. we sat outside and enjoyed a nice breeze with our dinner. It got cold fairly quickly as the sun was going down but our service was so fast that it didn’t matter, we were in and out before the sun even hit the horizon.

Discovered this place on our way to Lima for dinner. Stopped in for an after dinner drink and was not disappointed! Bartenders are amazing and the cocktails were creative and delicious. Prices are great too! Didn’t have any food this visit but all the food that we saw come out of the kitchen looked amazing! Can’t wait to go back and bring out friends!

Delicious food and extremely hospitable. Went in on a whim after work visiting the area. Felt immediately welcomed and within minutes met my server, the owner, and the cook. Had the 3 smoked meat platter and found all three to be excellent. Also sampled the smoked Mac and cheese which was delicious. Will be going back soon to try the sweet potato fries along with more delicious meats!

Got a sampler platter and really enjoyed the turkey and chicken. Pulled pork was ok but not my favorite. Also tried the burger and was hefty and thick, great with the fried pickles and I'm not a pickle fan. Tried the onion rings and was nice golden brown. But the best was the sweet potato fries with the "Mello" sauce...chefs kiss delicious!

Excellent food, service, and we thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor seating. The buffalo chicken pickle flatbread was excellent, the pickle fries and cheese curds that we started with were some of the best we've ever had and I would highly suggest trying a Disco Lemonade if you are in the need for a sparkly adult beverage!
