Great place. Good vibes. Bartender is a master at his craft. Each cocktail was made to perfection and felt like each olive was hand selected for me. Tip of the hat Caleb, you sir are a gentleman.

This is an awesome local bar. Little on the small side and it can get a bit crowded, but I've always had a great time here. Never seen any rowdiness and the staff are very friendly. I love the rustic/industrial scheme of the bar too....Read More

Friendly atmosphere and very pleasant ambiance. If interested in trying a new kind of beer, ask the owner, he really knows his stuff. If interested in trying a new mixed drink, ask the lady bartender, she will gladly include your favorite ingredients!
