Wonderful place to kick up your heels and have some fun with a drink and some tasty food. GREAT service & decor. I'm not from the area, but would definitely go back if ever out that way again!

Oh you’re going to have a fun time here! Love meeting up with friends after work, listen to the live bands always on the stage, and throw back a couple of cold ones. No over priced drinks here- just the real deal salt of the earth neighborhood bar with a cool vibe. We also had fun playing darts and slot machines with the gang. The staff are all pleasant and working fast to get everyone their orders. The owner was on site when we came in late on a Saturday night, working behind the bar to help his team. I need to come back soon to try the food everyone is talking about.

I've been coming here on occasion since it was Frank's Sports Page years ago. I've always had a good time here and have enjoyed both the food and the staff that served it. Great place to catch a band when they have one and plenty of space here if it isn't your thing.

I love this place. Just don't order pizza. Burgers, pork tenderloin, wings, pulled pork and shrimp tacos are awesome. Great atmosphere, good vibes, clientele of every age and background. Slot area is nice. Bartenders are always friendly.

Trish is the best bartender EVER! I haven't been back in about 6 months and she still remembered my favorite drink and how I like it made! Went in today to a bartender who was obviously overwhelmed, didn't help there was only 1 tender on MONDAY with football and then a few decent sized groups. She kept forgetting items people would ask for or bring incorrect drinks. Very disappointed
