Ideal for: Gastropub fans, people watching
Cost: Varies due to specials throughout the week
Offerings: Beer, burgers, pub grub
Experience: We chose to sit outside on the sidewalk so we could sun while people watching. Our waitress was great. She started off by complimenting my shoes which is a quick way to get into my good graces. I decided to get the farmhouse burger which came with bacon, an egg, and aioli. My friend got the short rib grilled cheese. When I heard the waitress rave about her sandwich, I knew that I had made a mistake. That feeling was reinforced when I tasted the burger. There was just too much happening. The runny egg and the aioli were not a great mix. I know that living in Texas for so long has heavily influenced my standards for a decent burger. My medium burger was too charred on the outside while not being as flavorful on the inside. I couldn’t finish it. The burger and fries combo that I had was around $15 for some regular ground beef not some bison or lion meat. My friend enjoyed her selection. I may not do the burger again, but would be willing to try other things on the menu. They have a great blueberry beer. Since there is outdoor seating, you can bring your furry little friends with you.
Seating: Inside – booths, tables with armless chairs and bar stools; Outside – tables with armless chairs and bar stools; It is a little dark inside, so I would opt to sit outside.
Pros: free mimosas for ladies during Sunday brunch, dog-friendly, great staff
Cons: not the best burgers
