This place is saved in the “my places” on my iPhone! Great food and service. Environment is just right to gather for meetings or just a part for two. Highly recommend this small business to support instead of some large food chain restaurant.

We had not seen this restaurant appear in our search of local places to eat before so we decided to try it. We came in around 3:30pm and it was quiet. Maybe one other table. We had the fondue for an appetizer. Very tasty. We both ordered the Sheppards pie. Delicious. I ordered mine with a side salad which was nice and fresh. ... read more

Delicious food in a clean restaurant with pleasant staff. 😋 Will definitely return often. Any place that has bacon 🥓 as an appetizer is my kind of place. The sweet and spicy bacon was delectable. Just don't expect to eat there on Tuesdays.

This is a nice quiet place. Parking can sometimes be a challenge, AND they only have ONE restroom, which can be a problem for a Beer drinker. But the food is good and the beer is cold. I do recommend this little place.
