I'm in town visiting my parents and we heard they had a decent selection of craft beers so we went for lunch to check it out. Beer selections are diverse and seem to rotate enough to keep it interesting, but our server knew almost nothing about any of the beers and could not help us choose something based on our other preferences. They would do well to educate their servers better, have them taste the beers and take notes. My dad and I know a lot about beer so we were fine on our own but how are you going to really sell anything to customers that may be new to the whole craft beer movement?
That being said, you can ask for a sample of beers as long as their are not designated as an 11oz pour on the menu. Why, I don't know.. Again, our server couldn't tell us.
Other than that, the food was predictable but good. Fajitas, burritos, tacos, quesadillas, salads, burgers, sandwiches and wraps. That sort of thing. I had the original burger and it had nice chargrilled flavor and a soft buttery bun. Didn't really need much in the way of condiments. However, I think it's completely ridiculous that they cannot cook anything less than medium. Seriously, is that a law or something? Lame.
My side salad was large but mostly lettuce... some variation in vegetables outside of the standard tomato and cucumber would be nice.... but at least it was fresh.
My folks had the wings, and I sampled my moms order since she had the boneless (I generally think
wings are way more trouble than they're worth)... They were good, and the medium spice was on the hotter side of medium (and rather salty in my opinion). She had a hard time with them being as spicy as they were. I probably wouldn't want to eat more than a couple, myself... more due to the salt/tang factor than anything else. My dad was pretty happy with his regular order of wings and the fries were pretty good and crunchy but again... really salty.... I suppose it goes well with the beer.
Service was attentive aside from our server not being able to guide us toward other beers... and I think the self serve tabletop taps in the bar area are fun (and probably dangerous). Unfortunately we're unlikely to go back... it just wasn't interesting enough to hold our attention, though it's probably good for game nights and big groups so I'm sure they'll do well.
