    We had the cider and a harp lager, enjoyed both. We also had the baked pretzel with cheese and that was quite a nice afternoon snack as well.

    Have been here multiple times both during the day and at night never had any issues until last week. A friend and I were walking up to the door where it wasn’t even 11PM, the bar had a decent crowd but WAS NOT packed. When we opened the door the bartender had walked from the bar to the door to say they’re closed, he shut the door in our faces and turned the lights off. Never asked for our IDs. We left because why give a business like that our money? While waiting for our Uber, the lights remained on with other guests being allowed in. No private party or event was going on. The bartender was rude for no reason but from other reviews not the first issue customers have had with him. Loved coming here but looks like I’m not welcomed here.
