What players say

Great place for ice cold beer and decent bar food. Overall a pleasant experience. It looks and feels like a normal bar, but the people are very welcoming. The bartender was very nice and took the time to learn our names and was overall very friendly.

★★★★☆ Felix, Apr 2023

Love this place! Cold drinks, great food, fun bartenders and Rose!! Great dive and when they have live music it’s always a good time. They also have pool tables and weekly games like bingo worth attending!

★★★★★ Roy, May 2026

Rose the owner is great and Gianna is fantastic, always serving with a smile. Everyone is fun as well. Cool place and three excellent pool tables.

★★★★★ Todd, Oct 2026

Great place to eat drink and hangout. Owner is putting a lot of work into making the place even more welcoming and fun. Can never go wrong with the bar pie here. Moved here a couple months ago. Come back every week to try something new on the specials menu. Staff and regular customers are super friendly.
