“ I love this place. Truly. Mel is one of my favorite people in the world, and to have her as a bartender is even better. Lin is also another definite stand out. Great food, good drinks. It being a trucker bar can be kinda hit and miss with the people. I’ve had great conversations and times with people here, and sometimes it makes you wish these guys would just stay in the truck, and keep the clowning to 19. But hey! Such is life. Get the prime rib if you can! It sells fast! ”
“ I like the bar tender that works on Tuesdays she is beautiful and funny I wish I had the courage to ask he to dinner ”
“ My favorite bar. Super friendly atmosphere. Super pretty barmaids that make you feel right at home. Stop up like I did and meet new friends. What is nice is the complimentary food around the holidays. Marie the owners mother is a great cook. Up there you are a stranger only once. Love the big hugs when I leave too! ”
“ The staff during this visit did not work in a manner consistent with service industry training practices. Nerver was multitasking attempted from my point of view. Come on now, get your game face on! ”
“ What a great little bar, the owner is very friendly, stiff drinks. No problems ever. Nice little Christmas spread. (The barmaid is very attractive.) ”
“ Just snacks here, no cooked food. Great atmosphere, nice regulars, cheap drinks, bartenders are great. ”
“ I came here for the 1st time last week and I will definitely be back! I was served by this stunningly beautiful bartender with jet black hair named Megan. She opened my full flavored budwieser with such grace it would've made an Olympic ice-skater jealous. She is a definite keeper! ”
“ Best place to start and finish on St Paddy’s Day! ”
