    the noise is outrageous, yes I get it it is a sports bar, but if you have to yell across the table ( in your party of just two) just to hear your friend then that’s really bad….. the food is not really as described by server, and the quality could be better - you should offer cans & bottles of beverages too ( not just fountain sodas & tap water) - server described the spicy dill aioli for fried picked as « not spicy and a 1 on a scale from 1-5 » ( this was absolutely outrageous, it was so spicy nobody in our party could eat it!), not to mention the insanely salty fried pickles ( do you intend for your customers to get sick from high sodium?) - fish & chips nothing to rave about. not going back.

    Service started strong but ended soft. Kids mac n cheese ordered first last to arrive. Kuds meal came with an ice cream scoop but never got it. Took 25 minutes to ask for the check when we were done, and another 10 minutes to actually get it.

    Food was great and we loved the vibe but our server kept rushing us throughout our stay and then told us we needed to leave our table at the end of our meal

    Our server Molly was great! She was friendly, efficient and listened well. We got the Reuben sandwich and Thai chicken bowls. The food was fresh! We would definitely return, if in the area again. Thank you!
