William QuiñonesOctober 23, 2014Religious experience! Get out of job late and Googled a nearby place and I came out coming here. Why I didn't before? I ate a duck fat burger with a side of duck fat fries and a marzen beer(Founders).
- Quinn MAugust 26, 2014You HAVE to try the duck fat fries, they are to die for. Get the veggie wrap with all the aiolis, so good! The pitchers of sangria are HUGE and delicious!Upvoted 5 hours ago
Love the blackened tilapia sandwich! It's a must purchase! Fries are good.. They have 3 kinds of fries but they all taste the same!- Dave HoekstraMay 9, 2018The duckfat burger is nothing short of a Renaissance. It is utterly fantastic. I got mine with cheddar instead of Brie, but you can’t go wrong here.
Jennifer TooneMay 30, 2013Duck confit sandwich was AMAZING and upgrade to the duck fat fries. The fries and dipping sauces are a must!
They offer 5 oz glasses of beer to preview or to make your own flights. Always rotating craft beers on tap Always a good time.
Leah AllenOctober 21, 2013Great food and service. Nice prices, too! Burgers perfectly cooked. Ask to be seated in the back dining room if you're looking for less of a bar feel.
boaz patlurAugust 8, 2012great beer selection! dont buy the apple beer, it's just really expensive cider!! They have good vegan feed!

Jessica NicholsonSeptember 1, 2013Very nice atmosphere and patio. Great food- cucumber margarita on deck
The Goat Cheese is amazing!!! They should have a softer bread for it... they toast the bread too long.
