Came here to watch the game and it was a solid choice. TVs are placed well, no bad seats. Service was quick and kept the drinks coming. The wings were just okay, a bit dry for my taste. Good spot if that&#39;s what you&#39;re looking for.

Love their beer selection. Always a solid lineup plus some fun seasonal stuff. The Tip the Cow is my go-to, but doing a flight is a great way to try a few.

As a celiac, I&#39;m always nervous eating out. Their gluten-free toast is a real treat, and the staff actually understands cross-contamination. They changed gloves and used a separate toaster. It&#39;s rare to feel this safe. A bit pricey for toast, but worth it for the peace of mind.

The pancakes here are so fluffy and huge, perfect for sharing with friends after a night out. The coffee kept coming, which we definitely needed. It&rsquo;s a classic spot for a group breakfast.

The spaghetti with meat sauce is always my order. The sauce has a deep, slow-cooked flavor that sticks to the pasta really well. I finish with the brownie pie every time, it&#39;s dense and fudgy.

Ordered via QR code, super easy. Food came out fast and hot. Staff was friendly and knew the menu well. Perfect for a quick lunch.

Celeste, the manager, was so helpful with the menu. She steered me toward the truffle pasta, which was exactly what I wanted. Just a really nice, low-key vibe in here.

Been coming here for years, and the steaks are always spot on. That crust is just right every single time. Early bird lunch special is my go-to.

Been coming here for 15 years when I&#39;m in town. The pizza is always my go-to. What keeps me coming back is the freshness of the ingredients. You can really taste it in the tomatoes and basil. The crust is light, not greasy at all. Just feels like a good, simple meal.

The New York-style pizza is solid. The crust has that perfect chewy-crisp thing going on, and the house-made sausage really makes it. Just a good, straightforward slice.

Great beer list, and the lighting is just right for a relaxed evening. My IPA paired nicely with the vibe.

Citrus sea bass was the move. Perfectly cooked, flaky. That sauce though. Downtown spot, rustic vibes. A bit loud inside. Solid meal.

Been coming here for years. The build-your-own bowl keeps things interesting&mdash;I love trying new combos of meat and sauce.

The Zuppa soup was so good I almost ordered a second bowl. Our server was really sweet too, made the whole vibe feel super welcoming. Perfect spot for catching up with a friend over a warm meal.

Staff was super nice with our big group, really made us feel at home. They kept checking on us without being annoying. Good vibes.

The gluten-free pizza was really good, and they were super careful about my allergy. I just wish the dining room wasn&#39;t so bright and loud, it made it hard to relax.

The staff here are always so nice. Our server remembered we liked extra napkins and checked in just the right amount. It&#39;s the little things that make a difference.

Been coming here for years. The hot turkey plate is my go-to. It&rsquo;s always just right&mdash;moist, good gravy, and the sides are consistent. That&rsquo;s why I keep coming back.

Love that this place is still going strong. Good tea selection, and the seasonal menu keeps things interesting. Plenty of parking right on Main Street is a huge plus. The variety of seating options is nice too&mdash;always find a comfortable spot.
