  Came here for a bite to eat for dinner. My  mother in law and I both order burgers to go.  The bar tender that took our order was a spaz.  While we were waiting I noticed a small spider crawling across the bar.  The bar tender was happy that I killed it.  She freaked out a bit too much over a little tiny spider.  I was quite happy when the food was ready to get the hell out of there because her voice was annoying the crap out of me.  
  
  Took our food across the street at St Peter's to eat and the burger was pretty darn good.  Great flavor, you can actually taste it was cooked on a grill. Another plus was they grill their burger rolls, love that!  The fries was good too.  I didn't try the mac salad but my mother in law seemed to like it.  
  
  Although the burger was good, I wouldn't make any special trips to go out of my way to come back here.

  I've only been for lunch and I was amazed at how good the club sandwich was. Really good. I'll have to go back...

  Thursday evening, 6:10 p.m.
  
  Scene:  a red faced overweight man in his mid twenties is outside a bar talking on his cell phone.  a woman who may or may not be drunk looks on from nearby.
  
  Man (into phone): I'm sorry, I'm not usually like this, but I've been drinking since one thirty.
  
  The man listens to loud talking on the other end of the phone call
  
  Man (into phone): I'm sorry, but I've been drinking since one thirty.
  
  end scene.
  
  Mind you, there is no major sporting event, there is no holiday.  just a regular thursday afternoon at Andy's Place.  It seems their customers are the type of people who think that being drunk is a perfectly good and reasonable excuse for irresponsible behavior.
  
  Me, I would have gone for, "I'm terribly sorry, I'm a little foggy with the flu" or "I'm having a bit of trouble because I just took some prescription cold medicine".
  
  But I had heard good things about their wings, and dammit I was not going to be thwarted this time.  
  
  Everyone was drinking in there.  A guy pulled up beside me and ordered a double jack and coke (it came in a pint glass).  He downed it and was gone before I even noticed.  The bartender was drinking.  The chef was drinking, and seemed to be on a multi-day bender by the looks of him.  
  
  Me.  Not drinking.  I had an iced tea that was reasonably good.  Ordered wings, extra-hot extra-crispy.  Crispy they were.  Hot, not so much.  Meaty?  Again, not so much.
  
  Surprisingly good flavor though.  And the crispiness was really incredible.  There are parts of the wings where sometimes the tendon's are exposed.  And these were fried so well, that those tendons crisped up and were delicious.  
  
  But the wings were pretty dry, and I do like them wet.  Maybe that's my fault, and in the future, I should make a point of ordering wings extra-wet.    The flavor of the wings was quite good though.
  
  The service, no so much.  It did seem that if you were a regular, you were treated well.  And I was not treated badly, it was just very difficult for me to get a refill on my tea and pay my tab when it was time to leave.  
  
  Oh, and the music was loud and awful.  But awful is just a matter of taste.  You might like that Avril Lavigne.
  
  On the plus side, they say they do not use trans fats.
