Know what you’re getting into: this is a bar with a vibrant nightlife, and a very active volleyball court in back with leagues playing pretty much year round. There are regular daily specials, both food and drink, and plenty of folks show up for the specials. The clientele is wonderfully diverse, and the folks behind the counter are generally wonderful as well. The food is top notch pub food, the drinks are reasonably well crafted, the service can get a little bit slow when it’s crowded, but that’s to be expected. My shrimp quesadilla was excellent, and the onion rings tasted remarkably fresh. All in all, I highly recommend this place.

I really don’t know how to rate this as I am still very confused about today’s happenings.
1. The description and summary are very misleading
2. We watched many people pull in, walk in, and turn around and come right back out– as we did.
We were on the search to find somewhere quiet for a family celebratory dinner. Google brought us to the House. I read some reviews, we looked at the menu, thought it looked pretty good, and we headed there. This was at 3:30 on a Saturday.
We arrived at the location, it looked a little run down on the outside but we read that in reviews so that was fine. We walked in, it was so loud, music bumping and people dancing, drinking tall shared alcoholic drinks.
The description should state that this is an adult nightclub.
We immediately took our family back to the car and decided to call our order in. The food was ready pretty quickly. You pick it up in a bar that has one worker in it and no people. It smelled like urine.
The food was decent. The atmosphere, service, everything else I can do without.

Hey came in here not sure what to expect. Apparently this is more of bar/pub/club and it’s huge for that type of crowd. We sat down and the bartender who doubled as the waiter came over to get our order going. They have a really nice menu for all types of appetites. We ordered a few different things just to get a feel for the food and service. Fish sandwich was a healthy size!!! Fish nuggets basket were great and the wings were well prepared. The only issue was there were a few fish nuggets quick thawed and fried with the skin left on. The sweet potato fries and the regular fries were awesome! I would certainly come back and try the Pork Chop Sandwich and the Links sandwich. Overall a cool spot to hear some music and have some good eats.

I had a big order and they filled it in a reasonable time frame! The service was excellent and tge food was again, delicious!! I may try them out for dinner!!

The food that we tried at lunch was really good. The service was just as good. The restraunt it’s self is in dire need of some help. Looks like it could have some great potential, but it needs some real help aesthetically! I would come back for lunch to try other options. It’s reasonably priced!

This is my first and last time coming to this specific location I went inside for takeout I tried to order my food being polite and saying my name and what I would like etc and was getting rudely interrupted by the server rushing my order , fast forward on the menu they have loaded cheese fries it’s doesn’t say it has green onions…I am HIGHLY allergic to onions and this baffled me when I got home and I gave my fries to my daughter since I’m allergic and she says the fries are so dry on top of that her wings only had only three celery sticks !! I’m disappointed

The wings are DELICIOUS, Top 10 wings in the area but the service yall when I tell you , It will make you go to Wingstop ! First I address the bartender as soon as I sat down about the “wing special” that was from 11am-1am per the screenshot from website below . She educated me that after 7pm they are 50 cent. So, what is the special from 11am-7pm ?! We finally got the manager but he lacked resolution skills and made me wait for him to talk to the OWNER! Tell me why as i am sitting there they remove the special from the website and after 20 minutes of waiting and because of the other young lady at the bar I was able to get a discount because she also saw the special, Imagine if she wasn’t there and it was their word against mine once they removed it.

I found this place by chance while I was in the area. It was an early dinner for me (5 PM), so I expected the place to be empty and it was. At first glace I had second thoughts about staying, but the reviews were so high I decided to give it a try!
The bartender, Janelle, was super friendly and amazing. Her smile and positive attitude reassured me I would be ok. 🙂
I ordered the fish and chips (fries) and it was sooo good. The cole slaw and tartar sauce portion was small but delicious. The fish was perfect!
I only give 4 stars because the place felt sterile, chair seats were ripped and it was empty. But the food was great, service outstanding and prices you cant beat. I will certainly come back!

First time here. Very spacious. Great music and service. Loved the karaoke. One complaint is its to dark inside. Lighted candles or something on the tables would be great.
Loved the DJ.

Personally, I love the house, one of my favorite places to eat throughout the week. Normally I die in the staff is always kind and I never have an issue with my order that is until I order pick up on this visit. The car machine was down and they failed to provide me my cold items for my burger.(lettuce, tomato, onion, mayo other than that the meal was good. Still ate it.
