Alstadts Ale House — Restaurant in West Virginia

Went there for the first time, was looking forward to it since there are limited places to eat at in Charles Town and the reviews. Tried using the QR code on the table and that wouldn’t work. So I used the QR code on the menu, it automatically gave us a table number not ours. Was able to talk to a food runner about it and he was helpful in making sure we got what we ordered.
