| - Very inconsistent..Not what is used to be....Look elswhere
We came here regularly for years. Then a couple years ago we had some a few bad experiences (cold fish, tough burgers, etc.) and stopped coming.
Finally we gave it another try and it was pretty good...until tonight.
We decided to pop out on a rainy Thursday to have some bar food. Cleats was our choice.
The place wasn't busy and we had our choice of seats. That was a good start.
Our Christmas Ale's came right away (the first of the season) so we were off to a good start.
I ordered the beer cheese sliders and my wife got the buffalo chicken sandwich. Now comes the disappointment.
My food came pretty quickly, but it kind of warm, not hot. I wanted mustard and when the server didn't come back soon with my wife's food so I had to go to the bar to get it...that happens. I wanted to be polite and wait for my wife to get her food. Ten minutes later, still not meal for her.
She told me not to wait and start without her. After all it should come any minutes. But by the time I started, my food was cold. Cold burger, coagulated cheese, you get the picture. But I think they would have been good if they were hot.
I ate slowly hoping my wife's food would come, but after nearly 30 minutes I finished my meal and still not buffalo chicken.
Finally it arrived. Our beers ($7.00 for a tall and $6.00 pint were empty). It's really no fun eating by yourself then watching someone else eat.
BTW, It wasn't just us. Most of the people around us were having the same experience (except for the couple who arrived 20 minutes after us...they were served pretty quickly).
To their credit, they offer us (and the others) a free desert.
Everyone has an off night. But we're not find out.
