Not the same Jolly Pumpkin. Went here for the first time since they switched names for happy hour. Ordered pretzel bites and you get 6 little pretzel nuggets. They give you a cup of cheese dip which is way too much for how many nuggets you get. The bbq chicken flatbread was good and a large portion. I ordered 2 pork sliders for $6 a piece. They were tasty but I've never paid $12 for two sliders. I was thinking at that price they would be bigger. The staff is awesome and the happy hour beer prices are a great value but I think they are pricing themselves out of a lot of customers

We decided to end our night here. They have an "Always Sunny In Philadelphia" pop up there that we wanted to experience. Unfortunately, they were closed. We did get to play a little trivia but we weren't there long enough to really participate. I loved the atmosphere. It is a large bar and great for big groups. Definitely a fun place to hang with friends. Hopefully we can make it back before the pop up is gone. What a fun concept!

Had a double shot of absolut vodka as a mixed drink and a soup(4oz if that) and sandwich(slider, think white castle chicken ring size) from the $10 lunch menu. Cost me $35 with the additional service charge(and no, that's not code for tip). Food tasted good. Portion size left me needing to go to the pizza place a few for downs. Price to (food)value ratio is way off!

Went for Happy Hour yesterday. The HH deals were great! The brussel sprout flatbread was soooo good. The pretzels/cheese were a little too salty for my taste, but still decent. Service was attentive and friendly. I would definitely go again, especially for HH.

This is such a cool place! Took the server's recommendation on the brisket pizza and I was blown away! Can't wait to come back!

Andres hot chicken sandwich was amazing if you like a little spice. Our server, Keith, was very attentive and had great menu recommendations for our large group of friends. Thank you for the great food and great service!

Don't know why this place has such a low rating. I've been here several times and always enjoyed the drink selection and food. The food is a little expensive for what you get but the pop up hideaway is always a great time. The staff is also very good.

Manager in basement bar was so rude! We asked for one song request and he told us to go kick rocks, even thought we were the only people in the whole bar!

The people they had running the stairs were rude. They wouldn’t let you go back up the same stairs you came down so you needed to go out the back door and around the outside just to go upstairs. How are they counting the number of people downstairs if they have people go out an unattended back door? They had an attendant in the men’s bathroom but he took up half of the tiny room so there was only one sink to use.

Hope sprung eternal but the food never lived up to the promise or the price. Country fried chicken bland tasting lacking any flavor. Same issue with the cornbread.

Finally came to check this place out, I can't see it doing well here. We came for dinner, ended up getting a beer and an appetizer before deciding to leave and eat somewhere This place is comically over priced. $22.5 for a burger and fries??? robbery Also a pretty small menu. I would recommend going literally anywhere else. I understand paying for an experience but this place felt so average. Won't be returning to eat here, really a bummer they decided to use that space for a place like this. Could have been much better. Service was good at least

Had great service and food tonight, had the Brussel Sprout app, the Skillet Pasta, and the Cuke Box Hero drink, all were great. I believe our waitresses name was Lanice, she was also fantastic. Will definitely be back!

Kinda a ghost town when we walked in, therefore got sat and waiting on fast. Got the brisket pizza and sandwich; brisket was like sliced lunch meat. Tough in parts. Kiddo didn’t love the fried chicken either. Fries were definitely the best part of the meal.

Not a fan of the food at all. The service was fine. But not the best I've had. The shrimp and grits had a really weird flavor. The beignets were flavorless dough. I don't think I'll be coming back.
