| - OH BOCKTOWN, HOW YOU DISAPPOINT ME!
I thought this place was going to be really awesome. I had heard good things...we went on a Friday night about 8. They said there was a 20 minute wait. No problem. 45 minutes later, we go in to realize they've forgotten about us. Luckily, we got seated right away.
Great beer choices! However, I actually ended up getting one of their "aletail" drinks, which is booze and beer combined. I got the gingersnap one. It was way too boozey for me.
As an appetizer, got the beer cheese. It was served with dry pretzel sticks like from a bag of Snyders, and cold pieces of bread. The cheese itself was sickeningly sweet.
I got the pot roast sandwich (which I will have to post a picture of), and my boyfriend got the appetizer called "meat trio." Mine was hilarious. Seriously looked like cafeteria food. The bun was a cold, normal hamburger bun. Imagine going to Walmart, picking up the Great Value brand of hamburger buns, and there you go. Not even warmed up or toasted!!! The pot roast was covered in this very strange layer of cheese. It was not one of those big, piled-high-with-meat/cheese sandwiches that I was expecting. It was a small, flat layer of sadness. The sad thing was, it didn't taste too terrible, but the presentation made me lose my appetite.
Boyfriend's food was also disappointing for the $13 he spent on it (it was only an appetizer!) He got like three meatballs, a bite of kielbasa, and three pieces of filet mignon, though one was just straight fat. I understand it was only an appetizer, but at $13, you think it would have been one of those made-to-share things...
Our waitress was the nicest person however, and the beer selection was great, but that was about it....I can get a better sandwich from the smokey dive bar down the street in Lawrenceville.
