1/31/25 - Friday night steak night! Try this special! It's wonderful and we even played the meat raffle! Both we and the couple with us each won! Oh...and the food? Fantastic steak as shown by my photos and a very generous amount of cole slaw! 5/30/25 Visit: Tonight I tried the 1/2 Chicken dinner so I could take some home too! It was very very good. We also had breaded mushrooms & cheese. Definitely something I would order again!

Food good and cheap Beer good and cheap Bartenders good and cheap (just kidding) This is a great little dive bar, if you like good ol dive bars with touch tunes and wood walls this place is for you. They had a stand in bartender named rich and their other bartender named sara(h) are so kind. They made up a birthday cake shot for me and were attentive and kind the whole time. I'd recommend anything you can dip in honey mustard. 10/10
