  A nice clean place, with good food and reasonable prices on beer.  Our first time they we picked the app combo platter (pick 4).  We picked chez sticks, zucchini, hot wings, & poppers.  This was nothing special.  The next time we picked the nachos and enjoyed it much more!  It was made with homemade chips, with both cheese sauce & shredded cheese, seasoned beef and the usual toppings.  They have nightly specials that look also, so I will have to go back to try more of their food.

  Underwhelming beer selection, but we ended up with a pitcher of Fat Tire and were pretty happy.  Food was great-- we got a combo platter and chipotle wings.  The wings were fantastic.. not too greasy.  Fried mushrooms, fried mozarella, jalepeno poppers, & nachos were good as well.  Standard bar food, but very tasty.  
  
  We shot pool for a while after that.  They had darts as well.  Ambiance is divey and it feels authentic.  
  
  Not very convenient to where we will be living, so I don't know if we'll be back, but we would recommend it to people who live in the area.

  Next to a 7-11 in a bland looking neighborhood commercial cluster, you'd never know that this super clean locals bar wouldbe a paragon of food preperation pride. The chefs (not cooks) where chef's frocks and their pride is evident in the skillfully prodced comfot food.
  
  My burger was excellent! I decided to forgo the fries and ventured off the side dish mainstream by trying  with a  freshly made vinegar based slaw. WOW was thet good!
  
  This is a bar turned bistro in a sensible way! Highly endorse!

  I really love this place. For a neighborhood sports bar it's about as good as it gets. Clean (even the bathrooms), ample seating around a long u-shaped bar, darts and pool tables and just about every sports package known to man. Or woman. Or maybe just this woman, but now we're splitting hairs.
  
  Run by a husband and wife duo (he bartends, she oversees the cooking staff) the selection of beer on tap is solid and the menu is full of grub options of the bar sort - the tacos are plentiful, the clam chowder is homemade, and there's always the seemingly trendy (is it just a Colorado thing? Anyone? Bueller?) open-faced "Slopper" burger wading in a pool of it's own green chile sauce if you can't find anything else to tantalize your tastebuds.
  
  We've never been in while it's packed, but the vibe has always been laid back and friendly. Like Cheers minus the wood paneling and grumpy barmaid. Erm, waitress. No wait.."server."
  
  Anywhoo. Check these guys out next time you want to see that game that's playing but it's not on the local networks. And have a "Slopper," now that you're in the culinary-trends-of-Colorado-Springs know. You may thank me later.

  I was shocked about this place. I see the lot full often and one day on the way home from work I stopped in. What a place. I love it. The people are friendly, the Bloody Mary's are the best and the food is to die for. I love it here. I now stop in a couple time a week to grab a drink after work. This is my new chilling and drinking place.

  Revising the last review and changing it from a positive to a negative. Sat down, next to a guy that was way too far gone. Secondly received no service. This was around 3-4pm. After more then 5 min passing I managed to distract the bartender long enough for her to take my drink order. For 6.50 I got a warm Guinness in a dirty glass that I had to pour myself. I drank my beer, and attempted to flag her down to pay. She told me the total, then ran off to help other customers. I set a 10.00 under the glass, finally again after about 5 min. was able to flag her down to take my money. I ultimately got tired of seeing her help everyone else but me, including the owner who was sitting on the end of the bar drinking. Safe to say I will not be back. Its a shame this place used to be so good for service, no its because of the service I will now longer go back.
