One of my favorite places to get food and drinks. Super friendly and chill atmosphere. Beautiful, updated back patio area for the summer. And the wings... You HAVE to get the wings! They are now serving breakfast, which I highly suggest you try. Think of an all American diner. All the staple breakfast choices.

Bartender was amazing. There was the perfect amount of people and we all hung out. We will definitely be going back frequently. Bourbon selection is great and the prices were more than fair.
