Wonderful food - Was very excited to see a locally owned restaurant/bar take over this location and even more excited to hear they were going to be a sports bar. I have tried many items on the menu (dinner and lunch), all have been very well prepared and delivered almost immediately after ordering. My favorite is the Pulled Pork with the "haymaker" onion rings. Would rate the food 5/5. Very friendly servers who are attentive and knowledgeable of their unique menu items.
Generally, I eat at the bar and Sal is a fabulous bartender. He juggles many orders and is very attentive to the patrons, however not intrusive. Sal is very experienced and is a good reference if you need drink suggestions.
Haymaker prides themselves as being a sports bar with tremendous pride in their coverage of football. They do have great television sets and Sal willingly changes channels for your favorite games; however they have obnoxiously loud country music all the time. The country theme is their schtick; yet over powers their potential to attract sports fans. The music is so loud, one can't hold a conversation without yelling. Tough to watch any game unless you read lips. I intentionally avoid going there if I want to watch and hear a game. Would rate them 2/5 as a sports bar.
