  The beer was good and nice and cold, hence me giving one star for that.  Food however is another story.  The fries were good, but the chicken sandwich I ordered left much to behold.  I am not a fan of mayo, and told the waitress I didn't want the chipotle mayo on my sandwich, and when the sandwich came out I still tasted mayo.  Come to find out all the bread is grilled with mayo.  This wouldn't be a problem if this was made clear prior to ordering, but where it is printed in the menu is on the back underneath the drinks in very small print.  After eating only half the sandwich the waitress came and picked up the plates, and while she was walking to the kitchen I overheard her say to the cook "I guess he didn't like his sandwich because he only ate half".  The cook asked if I had said anything and she said no and they had a discussion about how it didn't matter.  I don't mind if you are going to talk about customers, but a word of advice, don't do it where the customers can hear you!!!  The chicken was very dry and bland as well.  I would come back for more beers and to play pool or shuffleboard and watch some sports on TV, and if I would get food I would propably get something out of the fryer.

  We have eaten here a couple of times, and considering how cheap the food is, pleasantly surprised.  Of course you can't expect a gourmet meal  for $7, and you have to understand who they are catering to.  Being off the beaten track, their customers are mostly coming from the Crystal Falls area nearby. Mostly retired or working class people the bar will hopefully attract the guys one step above those who line up at the Minimart buying a twelver of Natty Light and a bag of Doritos for their dinner.  The food selection also serves the bar guys or the family types looking for a reasonably priced lunch or dinner.  Their getting that, and the specials are usually a casserole cooked up by the owners.  We recently got the carne asada casserole, filling and tasty, but authentically Mexican of course not.  Will we go back, yes.

  This review is based on the food only.
  This little restaurant/bar is close to my house. I had high hopes for good food. When we arrived, we sat at the bar. We got a menu from the bar tender/waitress, and ordered. I had the fajita burrito and my wife had the pulled pork with fries. The fries were pretty good, but that's where it ended. My fajita burrito (fajita fixings wrapped up like a burrito) was dry and bland. There was no sauce and absolutely no seasoning. the chicken inside was dry and overcooked as well. I asked my wife how hers was, and she said the same. Dry and flavorless with no sauce. BBQ sauce was served in the side, but it was bland and uninspired.
  To be fair, I overheard the owner say something about just hiring a new cook, and as far as the owner goes, he seems very nice and personable. He had no problem getting behind the bar and taking drink orders.
  I will return again in the future and give them another shot. I truly hope that the owner reads these reviews and uses them as a tool to do better.
