A fun place to eat and socialize. They have a lot of different weekly specials, like $9 pizzas on Monday, Tuesday Triva, and Thursday Karaoke (and that's only the ones I remember). Most days they have the front wall open, and you can sit outside. Super easy to order food to your table when you go up to the bar. The staff are nice, and their food is good.

Where else? We used to RAVE about the food, we were more than disappointed. The food was cold and extremely underwhelming. AND I didn’t realize that fries (which were God awful) were not included and $3.25 each. That part I’ll take responsibility for.
Lastly? There were a few deals because of the game, we were charged full price. Bartender said lakefront beers didn’t count as “local”… not sure what else was more local than that.
Not sure we’ll...
