CateringGreat bar! We came for music bingo, and it was an absolute blast. The staff was so nice and friendly. The taco salad and the gnome hats were excellent. I highly recommend checking them out.
The prime rib was great and the potatoes and the green beans was just like momma made them. The Yuengling was nice and cold! Mist importantly, thanks for having my friend Marde Brooks over to play his fantastic tunes for us all!!
We could not have been more pleased with our first visit here! Greeted by the bartenders when you enter, plus we had amazing service, and the food was delicious! Can't wait to come back!
When I get out with the guys this is my favorite place to let loose and have a drink, the owner is an awesome guy! I haven't tried their food yet I'm going to have to the next time we go out! Karaoke night is always entertaining.
Incredible food for a bar! Awesome and friendly staff, the owner takes great care of his place, and it's so much fun watching Chiefs games and shooting pool!!
