    I didn’t get any food from here but got a drink of Down East Draft. It was good and the environment inside was great. My friend had gotten the wings and enjoyed them. The meat fell off the bones and smelled amazing!

    Paul was the best bartender! So sweet and helpful throughout our experience. Will be going back soon for him, the pizza, and the wings!

    We came in for the Hideout Comedy show on Friday night. It was very entertaining, especially the headliner. Seating was intimate, and pricing was reasonable. It's a great date night idea.

    Stopped in for a quick bite and a a drink. Sat at the bar, asked the bartender what a quick food item is since I'm starving and in a rush. He took my order (10 minutes after me sitting down cuz he kept chatting with another group and ignoring new customers). He then clocked out and left. After sitting at the bar being ignored by evening shift staff for 20 minutes, I asked about my food. Turns out the bartender didn't put it in. No one checked in on me during this 20 minute wait. Left due to time constraints after spending 30 minutes here, starving and annoyed. Night shift bartender was apologetic, but didn't even offer to comp my one drink. Disappointed and will never return. Thanks for absolutely nothing day time bartender on Wednesdays.

    We stopped by The White Bull Tavern thinking I’d grab a quick bite — nothing serious. Then the buffalo chicken strips showed up and ruined every other chicken strip I’ll ever eat. Perfect crunch, just the right heat, and somehow still juicy enough to make me question my life choices up to that point. The pepperoni pizza followed like a confident encore — thin crust, crispy edges, and pepperoni that curled up like it was posing for a magazine cover. I actually caught myself smiling at it, which is mildly concerning. If you come here, don’t overthink it. Order both. Accept your new standards. And maybe bring napkins — lots of them. Best chicken of my life.
