What people say
Great place to see talented local artists ❤️
When I first walked in, I saw a bro wearing a huge cowboy hat. That and older gentlemen in a band playing on the stage. This is the type of stuff that defines the character of a place. It's chill, popular with locals, and would definitely be my local watering hole if I lived in the area.
