    Fun, active sports/brewery bar and pub. Too noisy for older folks, food is worth it though.

    Host staff was not friendly or welcoming. I think the manager was in the hostess stand and she was the least friendly and had a frown on her face the whole time. Our server was not attentive at first but then improved however she did not mention that the steak on the steak salad is served med rare and when we told her she said that’s how it’s served. I feel servers should always ask for temp on meat. The restaurant seemed dirty and I would have hoped for better service. The food overall is good.

    Waiter was really knowledgeable and friendly, and had the perfect balance of checking in enough and making sure we were taken care of without being overbearing. Food was awesome too
