Mark Grant IIFebruary 3, 2013All the way from Colorado on a business trip, took the family there and everyone loved it! Meatloaf was amazing, had some local cream pale ale that was awesome also!
Small menu with weekly specials. You can't go wrong, no matter what you order. Great selection of craft beer too.
Nyles MorelliApril 6, 2014Food was awesome, dad's fried chicken is well worth the $10. Surprisingly good beer selection. Graham central ice cream is off the charts.
Wonderful atmosphere, gracious servers, and amazing food. Crunchy chicken and anything vegetarian are always winners.
David LeszcynskiAugust 20, 2015It's always nice to see what's new on the menu. Make sure to ask about the specials!
K.j. YoungApril 14, 2016Good food but a little pricy. You can see the food precooked through the glass. Cool freemason symbol
If you're a vegetarian, try the grilled cheese with pesto and peasant bread or the vegetarian sandwich with spicy guacamole. Yum!
Christopher CommonsJune 30, 2012Get the Tomato Basil soup and the Feta Cheese Torta appetizer. Dip the cheesy bread in the soup and enjoy!!!
It's all about the specials here. And you can't go wrong with graham cracker ice cream.
Never had a bad meal here and have been visiting since they opened. Great food.
Lauren ThompsonOctober 29, 2013The Pepper Jack Mac and Cheese is amazing! You won't be disappointed!
The carrot cake is the best I've ever had! They also have a great beer selection!
