Sweet potato mash and Mac and cheese are where it's at! Also the smoked turkey is pretty awesome.
by Samantha
Two people? Get the 4 meat platter and sample the best meats they offer. Brad's beans or sweet potato mash make an excellent side dish duo.
by David J.

Tight on cash? Ask how much the beer is BEFORE you order 2 tall ones. Some of these microbrews are pricey.

How is this place open? Unorganized and zero windows! Is that even code?? Plus, looks very dirty inside and out.

On opening day I has The Mickey. It was fantastic. A lot of attention to detail was given to the construction. Great first impression.
