Great service from bartender Dana! We will definitely be stopping here again. The fries are the best I have ever had and the burger was exceptional

Food is always good. Burgers are getting smaller though. Most of the staff is on top of things. Takes a while for the food to come out. Pizza and wraps are great! Tasha is our favorite!!

Always love going here food is always amazing! Love how Tasha goes above and beyond for everyone that walks in. Even with the car show going on so it was super busy we expected to have to wait awhile but food still came out faster than we thought and the conductor burger is never a let down!

I was craving a unique burger and got one here! The MERG! It was named after one of the owners--his creation. It was not just marinated roast beef but a slab of it on top of a burger! And kettle chips made right there. Small-town feel (my favorite) and friendly people.
