This was a very pleasant surprise.
Good, creative food. Â Awesome Wednesday night pasta special.
Good seafood. Â Friendly, hard-working staff. Â Live music regularly.
Good selection of locally-crafted draft beers.
I stopped in for the first game of the Stanley Cup Finals.
The TVs are big,bright and well angled.
Good sounding room for when I had seen Flock of A-holes.
The simple man saloon is a great place to go if you are looking for a drink and some music. They offer a wide variety of food that seems to be perfectly made, and just want you want. Besides the fact that it is so local, it is just a well located bar. I get carded at the door, every time, however the drinks make it worth it. I have ordered a Grateful Dead from 2 other bars in town and The Simple Man is the only one that has gotten it right. They have a real variety in music, but tending to see a more 'rock' theme with alot of the live bands. Overall i have to recommend having a drink here, and then staying for the great people, and great food.
Review Source:All I can say is thank goodness I insisted that I was hungry! Never having been to Clinton, I was hoping they'd have somewhere I could eat to top off my most fabulous day on a high note. And yeah they did.
Walking in, I was a little worried. This was just a small town bar with a few booths, a bunch of high tops and lots of TV's over the bar. Not usually the look of a place with stellar food. Instead of ordering an entree each, we decided to split two apps. As Kerri mentioned, we chose the nachos and the wings. Was it fate that led us to garlic parmesan or just the fact that I'm not a BBQ kind of girl?
Whatever the reason, we were pleased with the result. The nachos could have been so much better. They were pretty lacking, we'll leave it at that. But oh yeah, those wings! They really were huge. I mean I've never seen wings this size. The smell coming off these wings was ambrosia. They seriously smelled like fresh Italian chicken cutlets. I knew immediately that we were gonna reek. One taste said it didn't matter.
So if you find yourself in Clinton and you find yourself hungry, you should really find yourself here. I can't wait to hear if the other flavors are just as amazing!
