    Great whiskey selection, solid food - burgers, shishido peppers, buffalo chicken stand out. Best of all the service. Dan, Mark, and Ralphie make you feel like a celebrity no matter who you are <3

    Grab a beer at this quiet and comfortable bar (with board games) while you wait the standard hour plus for your table at Jacobs pickles. Pretty decent selection on tap.

    Great spot. Try this cheese balls... They're amazing. You order at the bar and they bring the food to you... It seems a little off-putting, but they make it work seamlessly.

    What brings a bar into the twenty first century? Outlets. Outlets everywhere. How was I able to write this review? Outlets at the bar, mounted every three seats. And purse hooks. 👜🔛📱👌💯

    Love this place, great addition to the neighborhood. Only downside is no wait service so if you are sitting at the bar there is always someone ordering over your shoulder.

    Ask the bartender for something sweet and he'll make a drink called The Rampage. It's a perfect drink to go with playing board games.

    Skip the rowdier, frattier bars a couple blocks down and go to e’s. There’s a good amount of seating, a ton of board games, and you won’t feel ridiculous being over the age of 25. Read more

    Great American bar with board games and darts. The $7 burger is pretty solid. Nice to see every table completely engrossed In their games instead of their cell phones.

    $10 is a bit much for two small fish tacos that aren't even that good. They do have board games though that are fun.
