Doghouse Tavern

This is where you want to go to " do your time" when the line at the DMV next door is hours long.

Not so relevant for this review, but should you be employing this strategy, on the day I was here, the DMV averaged about 2 mins per number... Meaning I had 2+ hours to kill to cover the time between #600 and #674. That's time for lunch and two beers.

The place is a little hard to find - it's really tucked away.  It's at the far south end of the section of strip mall containing the DMV.  From Home Depot, go east across a though-driveway to the other section of buildings.  The bar faces south.

As far as the bar itself... slightly too nice for dive. There's a jukebox, pool table, a few TVs, and a golf game for entertainment. 12 taps: 6 macro lagers (bud and friends), 3 great divide, blue moon, Tommyknocker maple brown, and NB seasonal. The usual bottles. Big bar with seating for over a dozen, hi tops, tables, and a few booths.

The burgers are pretty solid, very homestyle with a buttered, toasted bun. Burgers come with fries or house-made, crispy, skin-on chips.

Overall, tasty food, pretty solid beer selection, and okay ambiance.  About a thousand times better than sitting in line at the DMV.

Went there for lunch on road trip for work. Excellent burgers.  Doghouse is a must try when in town.

One of my clients insisted on going to this place for lunch.  I was skeptical at first, it looks like a dive bar that would have terrible food, but boy was I wrong.  The food was great.  I'd come here more often if I lived nearby.
