If one hasn't already noticed by previous reviews and/or check-ins, I love a good dive bar.
I just had lunch here and was pleasantly surprised. The staff was very friendly, the beer was good, and although it took a while for the food to arrive -- it definitely cured my munchies. I don't necessarily go into a bar with a massive appetite.
As most bars, the lighting is dim, there are poker machines invading bar space, and there's usually a few other things to keep you "occupied". I didn't really get the chance to scope the entire place because I was only there for a quick lunch, but I could see a dart board and a big screen tv for the football fans.
FYI : IF YOU ARE NOT A GREEN BAY PACKERS FAN, GTFO! This place has Packers memorabilia left and right! It'd definitely be the place to come if you ARE a huge fan, as you'd probably make it in very well with the owner as well as many others!
The bartender was very nice! I didn't catch her name, but she had a very welcoming vibe and carried herself very well. The girl that took our food order was also pleasant and seemed very customer/service oriented.
My friend and I weren't all too hungry, so we decided to split an order of nachos. It took about 20 mins to receive them, but that didn't bother us too much -- we were busy catching up.
The portion was as expected, big & shareable, yet they weren't the best nachos ever. Loads of cheese, salsa on the side(?) And sour cream in a little packet (similar to ketchup packets) which was strange. Another thing I found strange was we'd ordered nachos with chicken....but got nachos with ground beef AND chicken. Hmm. Nachos, ground beef, cheese, a couple chunks of chicken, salsa on the side and sour cream in a packet. Omitted the jalepenos. For $10.95.
The guy next to me at the bar ordered some steak breakfast special which looked and smelled delicious...I was actually impressed to see that come out of the same kitchen my dingy nachos came from!! I may just have to order the steak next time ;-)
Excellent service, ok food...I'll still be back...just to feel welcome :-)
