I've been here twice now, and both times this bar served up exactly what I was looking for: good beer and a laid-back vibe. I've sat at the bar, and the bartenders were great! Friendly but not in your face.
I have also sat on the amazing, amazing patio. Even though there's a good amount of seating, it is prime seating. So it fills up fast.
A last word, on the food -- it is good, and so cheap!
