Abbey McLaughlinApril 10, 2015Great location, perfect place for patio sitting and people watching. Grab a flight of hand crafted brews and the Assad fries! Awesome staff of friendly, helpful people. Def would come back.
David CianiJune 14, 2015Yay beer samples! Enjoyed the BBQ Chicken Salad, Korean BBQ Pupusa and a Windansea Wheat Hefeweizen. They proactively comped one of our plates that was delayed coming out of the kitchen.
Eric VenkerJanuary 23, 2015Sit at the bar and taste a lot of beers. Ask about the cask. Food is good, too, if you aren't in the mood for Mexican at puesto next door.
ESTHERMarch 21, 2016Great beer selection with a bartender willing to let you sip on something to make sure you like it before committing to a glass.
Omar SanchezJune 8, 2019Beer!!! Aurora, Mosaic, Red Trolley... Chilly lime fries and Chilly are a must... Beer burger is also really good.

Trang BuiOctober 26, 2017Duck fat pretzel bites, golden beet bruschetta, chili lime fries, windansea wheat are so good!
markMarch 26, 2016Service was slow but good was better than expected. Try the big burger - super tasty.
Food fell short this time. Also always unsettling to see the manager and hostess drinking beer in the kitchen :/
Missie De Leeuw-BonoDecember 13, 2009Red Trolley is my favorite. Goes really well with the BBQ Chicken salad.
Peter McQueenJanuary 29, 2010Thursday night is cask night. Tapped at 6:00pm...$3.50 beers until it runs out!
Kate SchnepelApril 24, 2011Skip the chicken pinwheel style app (rollo loco?)... It's bland. Pale ale was good, though
