We went on a Monday night so it was understandably a little dead. But, the place has a lot of potential. It just needs music in the outdoor area. Great food and good drinks. And cool looking atmosphere.
i would not recommend coming here for the burgers. when ordering it seemed like the worker was too focused on a person who wasn’t even associated with the place. i got my burger and the patty for the burger was UNSEASONED. the only flavor i could taste was the condiments they put on it. i was so disappointed. i don’t understand how you can mess up a burger. i should have just dug out of a trash can than waste my money eating here.
Went for my son's birthday, to play at the arcade. We went on a slow day so we had the whole place to ourselves. The place had tons of games and pinball machines. I like the music jukebox it customizes the experience. And they are classic arcade that take quarters which brought back nostalgia. We didn't stop to eat but they do have food trucks in the back that look and smelled good. Nice trail outback also if you want to check out the local area. Will come back for live shows next!
Came here for dinner while on vacation. This is such a cool place. We ordered from a few trucks. The steak and noodles, burgers, and chili cheese fries were all delicious. The coffee drinks, ice cream, cookies, and pumpkin cheesecake finished our night off perfectly. Everyone was so nice and welcoming, we even met a really nice local named Alyx. We enjoyed the outdoor and indoor games as well as the music. Can't wait to come back during busy season.
Great all around! The food is great, and the atmosphere is fun! One plate was plenty for both of us to share! I did wish there were more veggies but I’m sure they would have added more if I’d asked.
