| - Change is inevitable over time, but I don't feel that the Clubhouse's recent renovations and menu changes were for the better.
I've been coming to the Clubhouse since I was six years old, when it first opened, so it was a regular joint for my family growing up. I know it probably wasn't the cash cow of the place, but I was disheartened to see most of the arcade/games area wiped out for the new garage door-style bar. It's where I spent a lot of time as a kid, and now there are only a handful of games in the lower area. It almost seems misleading to still call it "The Clubhouse", you know?
Old standby favorites are still on the menu: Lounge fries, fish sandwich, chicken tortellini salad, but at elevated prices. The fish sandwich has gotten smaller, and the beer batter doesn't taste nearly as good as it once did.
On multiple occasions I've experienced slow, inattentive wait staff. I've been to the bar once or twice, and wasn't really impressed with the selection or the prices.
Overall, I understand that restaurants should evolve over time, but I felt like the missteps here have abandoned longtime, dedicated customers.
