| - We have been here before a few times, and always enjoyed both the atmosphere and the food. Even my super picky mom loves the hot dogs. Recently, we have started attending trivia nights on Tuesday, and it is so much fun!!! We get a reservation and are seated promptly by the smiling hostess. The waitresses are great, very friendly and fun, joking with us and completing their tasks quickly and efficiently.
They have an interesting list of cocktails as well as a varied beer list. Last week I started out with the Chabang Chabang, a gin drink with lemon and soda that was particularly refreshing on a hot summer day. Because of my food allergies I tend to shy away from the hot dogs (I am not a big fan of veggie dogs, and usually gluten free buns, which they do offer, have eggs in them). I do, however absolutely LOVE the garbanzo bean fries! Basically, they are just garbanzo beans ground up, baked, and then fried to perfection. They are crispy on the outside and gooey on the inside. I follow it up with the vegan chili, which is surprisingly spicy and full of beans, peppers, and tofu. My husband does enjoy a good hot dog, and loves the Pittsburgh, which is covered in pierogies. We once split the kale salad, and it was also delicious, with roasted veggies and a light vinaigrette. When we are deep into trivia and need more sustenance we order a basket of homemade chips, which are thinner than I prefer but still a tasty snack to keep us going.
I usually end the night with a cider that they have on draft from Arsenal cider. I've also had the Church Punch, which is a fun twist on the punch I grew up drinking at various church events.
Trivia is fast-paced and competitive, but always a great time. The host is inventive and smart, a great combo for the crowd in Franktuary. We hope to continue coming back for a long time.
