Loved the vibe in here. That sounds like something to eye roll at, I know. I went on a Friday afternoon, few patrons inside. But not dead like, why isn’t anyone hear? The space is big and comfortable. Dart boards, lots of seating options- stools at the window, classic banquet style, funky chairs in circles at a small table etc. there is no outside/patio. Dogs ARE ALLOWED inside. (Just not on the black turf because dogs don’t know it’s not cool to .. use) a group came in and at at a picnic table and played cards. The bartender was friendly. Beers are well priced. Outside food is welcome and they have pop up vendors as well. Will definitely be back next time im up that way.
