I saw some bad reviews about this place and I don't understand it. This place had great service and great food. 5 out of the 7 waiters/waitresses all stopped by our table and I loved that approach. Never had that great of service anywhere else

I had the hot turkey sandwich special and it was amazing! It came with mashed potatoes and corn, and it was all covered with a very healthy dose of gravy. Fantastic! Good selection of beers and great service too.

The food and atmosphere were great but what I was really knocked out by, was the way that they go about service. You don't have just one waiter / waitress. They all stop by to check on you. I have not seen this anywhere else.

Joe's is a great place. The wait staff is fantastic and you're never sitting very long without a refreshing drink. This I feel is due to the fact that the wait staff Joe's shares all tips. Sharing tips means any one of the wait staff...Read More

The food was excellent. My husband had a burger and I had wings. The wings are one of the best I've had. Enough meat but still crispy and crunchy. Only pitfall was that it smelled like swimming pool when we walked in.

Probably the most popular college bar in GF. This is one of those places that will be completely empty at 10PM, but absolutely packed full at 2AM. Keep that in mind if you plan on stopping here.
