We had lunch here for the first time this past weekend, and had an overall excellent experience. The quality of the food here was really enjoyable – it’s bar food, but well done bar food with some nice little touches that you wouldn’t find in a lot of places. For example, this place sells mini corn dogs as an app, and they were a fun and yummy treat. They have pizza egg rolls that are really delicious as well, and my only criticism of those is that they were slightly overcooked. We got a sampler of apps to try including those two things, and some fried pickles as well. The fries pickles has a great taste, but needed to be cooked just a minute or two longer to be perfect. Our entrees were fabulous – the pimento cheese on my burger was great, and the burger as a while was perfectly cooked with fresh toppings. Fried okra was unique in shape, well seasoned, and with a wonderful light batter. My husband’s chicken strips were fresh, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, and the tater tots were awesome. Their sauces – ranch, honey BBQ, and ghost pepper – are all good additions as well. Even with a few minor flaws that I’ve already mentioned and service being somewhat slow, the food quality was enough to make for an overall excellent experience. We will be back!

Ashley!!! So we had the pleasure of dining in at this restaurant. Prices were reasonable. We had a burger and a chicken wrap. Both were served fresh and hot. The sweet potato fries were delicious. Our server Ashley did not disappoint. The place was packed and she worked the entire dining room all by herself. Our food was delicious and the service was great!!!

First time here and I was very underwhelmed with the food. The best part was the Fried Pickle Chips. I got the Chicken Philly, there was very little chicken on it and it had no seasoning at all.

Stopped here on my travels. It’s a tavern. You’re going to get bar food. Nothing here is going to be the most amazing thing you’ve ever eaten but if you want some good ol bar food this is the place to get it.

This evening my wife and I had an unusual experience, our food was hardly warm, almost cold. The restaurant wasn’t overly busy. A large table to our left got their food and were almost ready to leave and we still hadn’t received our food. I didn’t pay attention to whether we ordered first or they ordered first. Either way it shouldn’t have made that much of a difference. I saw our waitress get our food from the window. But I have no idea if it had been sitting there for a very long time or if the kitchen staff put it there after a very long time. We’ll be back and I hope we have better food experiences in the future.

Great place to catch up with friends or family. Our waitress was fantastic. This place is always hopping, the atmosphere is loud and full of good vibes. The grilled wings were cooked just right, I love that they give you plenty of sauce. Never had an empty glass. The used plates and trash were taking away fast to give much needed extra room. Everyone really enjoyed it, will be returning!

Found this from a recommendation online. The food was fantastic!!! True fried okra, fantastic grilled shrimp and the burger was ridiculously good. They were busy and a little short staffed as it were but no issues.

This was my first time there, and it was very good. Our waitress was very attentive to us. Kept a check on us but did not overly smother us. We both had the Tavern burger. It was so big that we both cut it in half to be able to pick it up. I brought half of mine home and ate it the next day. The sidewinder fries were different, and I mean different in a good way. I wish I had taken a picture, but I never thought of it at the time. The fries are just good! My burger tasted like someone just grilled it on their grill. It had the best taste. It did have grill onions on it also. That made it even better. You can order it with anything you want on it. We will be going back there and trying something else.

Been going here for years. The wings are awesome. The Philly cheesesteak is delicious. The sidewinder fries with ranch are addictive. Burger Monday is a great deal along with wing Wednesday The burgers are made how you want them. The menu is very reasonably priced. Staff is friendly and attentive. Large selection of craft beer along with domestic. Very good selection of spirits also. Never had a bad meal in all my years of going here.
