What players say

Chef Dave makes THE BEST quesadilla that I've ever had. Everything else I've tried so far has been amazing. You can tell that he takes great pride in his craft. 💯 👏

★★★★★ Lisa, Nov 2025

I have seen a couple ska/punk bands perform here and it's a vibe. Not a large venue by any means. The bar itself is caddy corner from the stage and about 5 feet away. But they make great food. The outside patio area is very nice for hanging out in general but also in between bands' sets.

★★★★★ Alessandro, Aug 2022

Excellent service, very pleasant bar tenders, each one, especially the one with the glasses and all the tattoos, only issue with me is the vaping inside the building. Mainly because I have COPD. But other than that, very enjoyable.

★★★★★ Joseph, Oct 2024

If youre looking for THE neighborhood bar.... this IS the place. Been a favorite hangout for years but recently booked the bar for a private party and Becca and the northside crew made it a totally easy and enjoyable experience. Not just for us but for every one of our guests.
