    Atmosphere was inviting. Staff was friendly. Not a lot of seating, maybe 50 people comfortably. Family friendly. Tasty draught. They sever food, but I didn't order any. I would go back.

    Stopped in for a couple beers with my girl, our dog, and her granddaughter (she had a soda, no beer), stayed for a couple hours playing a trivia game and eating popcorn with lots of laughs. The beer was great and the atmosphere was relaxed and felt like home. Bought a couple bottles and a glass for later. Will definitely be back next time we're in town, thanks for the fun afternoon!
