  I'm into the whole historic places thing and had high hopes for this place. It has all the working for it to have some serious nostalgic potential. Old building, saloon looking porch, antique bar backdrop and rickety facade but turns out while the building itself may have some history to it the inside is just made to look old. Kinda sad because the place has potential until the charm is sucked right out of it by remodeling.
  
  The do have live bands really friendly staff and people whom hang out there seem to be pretty welcoming. Their pool table could use some serious upgrading. They make up in the quarky factor with huge barrels of peanut which they welcome you to toss shells on the floor.  
  
  Historic qualms aside, i'll be back should I head back to Stanwood.

  I have only been here once and this one time the place was packed. Live music, full bar, good beers on tap, I was pretty happy with my experience. I was there with some friends on a Saturday night they said this was the busiest they had ever seen it, so don't expect the place to be packed every time. The band was good, people were dancing and having a good time. They had one pool table, but no one was playing. They had deschutes red chair, black bute, mudslinger and a few other good beers on tap. The beer was $5.50 a bit expensive, considering my friend ordered a black opal and hers was only $5. Oh and did I mention that my beer came in a mason jar? Very cool. I will be back I'm sure.
