    Awesome place! Cheap drinks, good selection of beers and lots of tvs now showing sports!
    Nice bartender named Maggy or Melinia or Meghan.
    They got $5 personal pizzas that are homemade and pretty darn good. Highly recommended for neighborhood bar feell!

    At first glance this is an ideal neighborhood dive. Fine location, nightly specials, chill vibe.

    I had a few drafts with friends who live close.

    However, at the close of our tab I was given the wrong card- looked exactly like mine, but not mine. This wouldn't be a big problem - partly my fault for not double checking, easy to fix-  but I've called the bar about 15 times and no one is answering.

    I have a strangers debit card, I don't know who has my card, and the bar isn't answering.

    Answer your phones.

    **UPDATE: My friend paid the entire tab, so when I was handed my card back from opening my tab, it shouldn't have been charged. I wasn't given a bill to sign. My card was charged $27. It's been a week, I've called many, many times. No one answers the phone and there is no voicemailbox. I've had to dispute the charge with my bank and order a new debit card. Stay away.

    Frank and Connie are literally awful people. Stay away from this bar. It's literally a crack den.

    The only reason I have been to this establishment is because it's a dog friendly place and quite a few of my folks like to go there because of that.  They have a nice outdoor area with comfortable furniture.  There use to be a second side to the bar, but it has been closed off, making the space feel smaller.

    Can't speak to the kitchen as it has never been open when I have been there. Not much in the way of a big wine selection and depending on who s is working the bar, they may not be able to make your cocktail if it is too complicated.

    I can meet with folks there for a drink because I want to see them, but this is not a place I would come to on my own unless I could bring bubbles.
