    I think I just fell in love with a bar. Nice people, nice drinks. Do not tell your friends because then it will be too popular.

    The frozen slushy Painkiller is delicious whether it's warm or cold outside! And fantastic fries!

    Friendly bartender. Come here to feel like an instant regular. Small, but good beer selection and fun signature cocktails. EXCELLENT french fries.

    The fried chicken salad is a good compromise between heavy and light. Solid fish & chips, too.

    1. Order the Painkiller 2. Repeat. 3. Don't check in here again! (you like the fact that there's an open seat at the bar when you get here, don't you?)

    Where else are you going to see house made pork rinds? Note: they're huge and you get, like, 5. Not spicy.

    The food is quite terrible. I'm on 'experiment' #3 so far. You'd think I could learn. My tip: Skip the food
