    Great dive bar with lotto, decent amount of seating, pool, darts, very large bar to sit at. Tuesday night is music bingo, which was fun. Bathroom was clean. Staff was friendly. Beer was cold. This is a no-frills place to do yourself some drinking. Who could ever complain about all of that? Also, I wasn't expecting much out of the food at all but I got an order of wings and they were absolutely delicious, cooked perfect and steaming hot.

    New menu is great. Only tried a few things so far but they're all very good. Never had a bad time here. Beer is cold, the people are friendly, and the food is reasonably priced and tasty. Both Leah and Mel are great bartenders.
