    Always a daily burger special as well as a few others! And of course a menu full of beers of the week!

    The "Don't Poke the Bear" burger was mind blowing. Each bite a little better than the last. Maple glaze, bacon, a donut and peanut butter ( admittedly had it without the peanut butter) was awesome!

    Kobe burger is great - nice seasoning with flavor. Love the shoe string fries and the cool twist on Mac 'n Cheese. Great beer selection.

    Fantastic beer selection, food is delicious (great wings), but it is very expensive for a pub.

    The Kobe sliders were great as well as the fries. Was surprised to get the bill and find out the bloody Mary's were $12.

    The menu at lunch totally blows. There isn't much to pick from and it's kinda pricey for what it is

    Be prepared to wait a while - you can't leave your name on a list for a table and sometimes service is very slow...

    Nothing to write home about. Burger was average, waitstaff's painstakingly slow. Doughnuts were good though!
