Stopped in after the dinner hour on a Tuesday and was not disappointed. Its got a smaller interior but that is all thats small. Great service, fast and friendly. Cold beer! The beer list was decent and a full bar acts as a back up. Mimosa flight was not too god awfully priced and each was tasty. Tacos for $2 on a Tuesday....yes please!!!! Very good food and great presentation. I recommend this place to those looking for a good meal and a good atmosphere. I will be returning when I get the time! Menu has a good variety that I want to explore.

The Grand Tavern

Reviewed By Matt S

This sports bar was a good option for lunch. Although fairly busy, we were seated pretty quickly, and had a good, efficient server. The food was decent; the jalapeno pretzel dip in particular was excellent. The Georgia Reuben (a turkey Reuben) was good.Definitely not a bad place to catch a bite to eat.

Recently attended a casual cocktails/hors d'oeuvres gathering of an organization I belong to up on the second floor of Cowley's. Food could be chosen from the menu and was served hot and tasty. Bartender ran a tab for everyone ordering items not included by the organization and checkout was quick and seamless. A great spot to hold a meeting or to sit and enjoy dinner.

Ram's Horn Restaurant

Reviewed By MorellaUV

Pleasant family restaurant. Clearly most folks in the restaurant were frequent customers. Breakfast all day, plenty of meats, salads and fish options. We had the Patty melt burger and the spinach quiche. Loved them both. The quiche was crispy in the outside but soft in the inside. Very tasty. The burger was made with good quality meat.Kristine was our server: so nice! A pleasure of a person and extremely efficient.We didn’t have breakfast but the menu options look great.

I thought this place would be healthy... nope of course not. French fries and veggie burgers. Vegetarian? Yes healthy? No So what’s the point, might as well go have a big juicy steak that at least has nutritional value.

Breakfast Club

Reviewed By ElSanto822

Service - as stated above. Excellent service! Food - Western Omelet, hash browns (crispy), and wheat toast. Omelet was perfectly cooked and even though I asked for crispy hash browns (and they were crispy) they were not greasy. The bread they used for the toast was a good quality bread. Overall great breakfast. I hate a greasy breakfast and this was not one bit greasy. You could tell that they take pride in their cooking. So if you are looking for a great breakfast this is the place for you. I would not call it a "foodie" restaurant but I would definitely return. PS place was nice and clean

Greene's Hamburgers

Reviewed By gypsyboyfriend

If you like delicious [and kinda greasy] sliders at 3am, Greene's is for you. They're actually pretty delicious at 3pm, as well, but that's besides the point. I've been going to Greene's for over 20 years and will never get tired of it.

We've been going to Peterlin's since they opened. The menu has something for everyone with a long list of daily specials, including desserts. If you're into craft beers that list is long too! The food is consistently good and we've never left disappointed. Definitely give it a try.
