We are from Hastings. Ppl highly recommended this place. We were in the neighborhood so we stopped in for a drink. Took home spicy crab soup. Too spicy! We put it over mashed potatoes to enjoy it. (We love spicy, but this was crazy spicy) They were busy. Great to see on a Monday nite. We will be back.

I actually like a small neighborhood bar with a cold beer and a great meal with great service and kind strangers. Even parking is great. Careful now though. It's easy to miss the turn in if you're driving by. Which would be sad.

Have been here about 6 times and every time it’s about an hour wait to get food and this time my and my dads card declined and they said sorry that the internet is down and after the wait I had to drive to an atm and come back to pay and pick my dad up

It's a pub atmosphere with excellent food. I like a little spice, and my chicken quesadilla had the right amount of spicy. And, it's ALOT of quesadilla (I was full fast). Roommate had a burger, and he really liked it...said he had to wait for a bit because there was only one person working on the floor, but the food was worth the wait, especially for the price. The lady working was super nice.We'll be back very soon.

Coming in, I didn't know what to expect. You can tell that the regulars are family, but we were not treated any differently. Food was amazing, hot and fresh and I will definitely be back!

Great food and service. Everything you love about a neighborhood tavern and none of the stuff you don't.

A great place for a cold, draft beer in a frosted mug and tasty, reasonably priced food, with daily specials. Kelly B was the bartender on this particular visit, and she was very attentive and efficient. Highly recommended for lunch or early dinner.
