A place you need to try, the food was good and the service was perfect thanks to Jordan. The drinks never ran dry. Home of the Chicken finger? Definitely home of a damn good chicken finger, and if it is not the home, it should be.

Very good meal. Grab the spuds over the fries. Roof top deck permanently closed (over ten years). Plenty of seating, and could accommodate larger parties. Wheelchair accessible and very family friendly. Large portions too.

The fried pickles were swell, the waitress was good the rest of the food was okay… …the weather was cool and someone must’ve kept opening the door in the back somewhere which made a wind tunnel past our table.
