Always a great time. Their custom drinks are fun and tasty, even if they are mostly on the sweet side. The pizza is surprisingly some of my favorite in town -- don't leave without trying it! My only bad mark on the place is that some of the games need repairs or go out of order at times. But it's no worse than how it was at the arcades of old. The variety of games is superb and you can expect to find plenty of the great classics here.

This place located in the heart of downtown is one of 3 restaurants owned by the same group. The beer selection is amazing. My husband loves beer and enjoyed browsing the menu and finding a great beer to enjoy. I admittedly do not even like beer however I was convinced to try a Wyder cider aged in tequila barrels that I was told was not only delicious but did not taste like beer at all. I gave it a try and loved it. Very refreshing. The food was excellent. They offer a range of typical bar food-burgers, sandwiches etc. as well as broasted chicken and meatloaf. Something for everyone. I highly recommend the Graziano sausage sandwich. Graziano is a local sausage that is a real treat. Also this place is convenient to the bike path.

Martini anyone? If the answer is yes then thi s establishment will satisfy you 100% I ordered their version of a dirty martini. Until now I thought I made the best dirty martini , but they humbled me. It was so good I ordered a second one to be sure it was not a fluke. It was great. Local beers too. Great barkeeps and Ambience. Strong local following too.
