A weird little place with interesting food and great drinks. Stumbled upon this place by accident and it was well worth it.

Oh my goodness - best Whiskey Sour I. Have. Ever. Had. Josh or Greg (sorry guys) was nice enough to explain the difference in options there, I went with his advice and was so pleasantly pleased.

Sit at the bar and ask for the bartenders favorite. I was introduced to a wonderful old fashion not on the menu.
Heather TAugust 7, 2014
Best whiskey sour I have EVER tasted, not to mention the upscale but not pretentious provisions menu. The people who work here really seem to care about the place and it's customers. 5 stars!

Cocktails are handcrafted. That's really all you need to come in and get interested in the food menu. Decor is manly-whimsical...don't be afraid!

Great cocktails and antelope sliders. Also one of the more unique atmospheres and decor. Must go place.

Really great cocktails, happy hour from 4-6pm daily (even on weekends) gets you a $6 delicious cocktail!

Overly salted! The chicken fried quail tastes bitter n nasty. Balanced of flavors were bad. Great menu just poor execution of the food. I'm so sad rabbit hand pie such a quite idea it's a shame.

Burgers are really good.
Will CurranFebruary 19, 2018
It's slightly expensive for the portion sizes and while the theme is amazing, I feel the food is just mediocre. I'd rather have a chicken pot pie for less the price. Everything just was meh.
