| - My friend saw this place on Groupon & we knew we had to check it out. Anything with "pints" in the title intrigues me, haha. They also are new- only open a couple months, so we were excited to go. We went on a Monday night- found parking easily on the street & it wasn't very crowded inside. There were 5 of us & we found a spot easily on the second level of the restaurant. Our server was very nice & attentive to us the entire evening. Their draft list was decent in size- I went with a fruity IPA, it was delicious. They had beer cocktails, which was awesome. My friend ordered a beer that came with a smoked jalapeno inside (it was in the drink menu- the drink will be different depending on what porter they have on draft at the time). He loved it.
For appetizers we ordered the Spicy Sausage-Stuffed Apple, Spicy Chicken Nachos & Fried Pickle Chips. The Spicy Sausage-Stuffed Apple was our favorite. It was everything fall in a delicious appetizer. It wasn't too spicy but it was very flavorful & delicious. The Spicy Chicken Nachos were also a hit- they weren't super spicy but they were delicious. The fresh avocado on top was the perfect addition to the chips, chicken & cheese sauce with Pico. On their own, the chips were a little too salty, but overall we really liked this appetizer. The Fried Pickle Chips really weren't anything special. They were good- but not really memorable. My boyfriend & I weren't too crazy about the Guinness mustard that came with them- we enjoyed dipping them in ranch instead.
Monday night is wing night- so three of us ordered some wings. For 50 cents each we couldn't pass up the chance to try some of their wing flavors! We ordered: 5 spicy dry rub, 5 hot pepper jam & 5 of the special that evening (honey spicy BBQ I believe?). The dry rub were good- definitely tasty. The hot pepper jam wings were a little disappointing. The jam didn't stick to the wings & therefore they were a little tasteless. They also weren't spicy at all- they were really sweet. The flavor that was on special that evening were the BEST. Super good.
For our sandwiches, our group ordered: the stuffed meatball burger, the city chicken sandwich, two grilled southwest chicken wraps and the roasted turkey club with house bacon.
My friend who ordered the stuff meatball burger LOVED it. Mozzarella cheese was literally dripping from the burger- it looked Awesome. I had the opportunity to try the city chicken sandwich (PORK for anyone who doesn't know what city chicken is)- it was definitely really yummy. It was also huge and my friend couldn't finish it. The two peeps that ordered the grilled southwest chicken wraps seemed to enjoy them as well.
But I have to say that I ordered the best sandwich... the roasted turkey club with house candied bacon was IN-sane. It was HUGE. Thick slices of real turkey breast, thick slices of house candied delicious bacon LOADED high. This thing was a building basically. The flavor did not disappoint at all either. I was only able to eat 1/3 of it that evening. My boyfriend & I ended up splitting the remainder of the sandwich into two sandwiches & had that for dinner two days later.. so this one sandwich literally was 3 meals.. it's that big.
One bummer about the sandwiches is that they all come with fries- they don't have other sides available. My friend did ask to switch her fries out for a salad- which was a $2 upcharge (not bad). The fries weren't super good- we ended up eating some for leftovers but then just throwing the rest out.
Overall this place was awesome- I would really like to return for the turkey club in the future, as well as a cold beer to go with it.
Check this place out asap!
