It was not busy when I got there at 6:30 pm on a Tuesday night so I got to pick where I wanted to sit. The waitresses were extremely friendly and cheerful! My waitress was very nice and suggested the perfect sandwich once I told her what I was considering! 8t was the Prime Rib sandwich and was perfectly done to order and absolutely delicious, probably the best I have ever had. I was dining alone, but didn't feel awkward and I had a very pleasant experience and a wonderful meal! I would highly recommend this to anyone planning to visit this area. I look forward to another nice meal when I visit next time!

We stopped here as part of a charity ride and were glad we did. The Pineapple Moscow Mule was excellent, and the Cougar Pizza was outstanding. The outdoor seating area is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere. This is a great small-town watering hole with friendly, attentive service that truly stands out. We had a fantastic experience and look forward to coming back.
