    The drinks were great. Service was excellent. The cheese curds and wings were delicious and the fish and chips were wonderful as well. The fried green tomatoes and the calamari were overly fried and ended up being not as good as they could have been (glaze on calamari was good as was dressing on fried green tomatoes). The raspberry donut holes were disappointing as there wasn't really a prevalent raspberry taste. I’d like to go again and try one of the sandwich options.

    Good food and ambience but the music was a bit too loud. Couldn’t hear the server.

    I was with 4 girlfriends for drinks and appetizers. It was a fun atmosphere and we all enjoyed our drinks and the cheese plate. I would love to go back and maybe sit outside.

    We only had starters/appetizers which were very good. The craft beer selection was very good and we were able to get small tastes of unfamiliar beers before we ordered a full pour. This is a bar with no formal dining area but that was exactly what we were looking for this time so it was perfect.

    In addition to the joy of outdoor bistro seating for those sunny days ... Simply stated. This is a great at-the-ready go-to. Food always good... Maybe our favorite Center City cafe.
