Definitely a sports bar. Small hole in the wall. Short staffed but our waitress was so friendly and had a sense of humor! Crazy amount of food choices with some funny names. Definitely recommend the salty balls. Super good. Food is a bit pricey but overall great place to eat and for the sports fans

I went here with the good friend of mine and there was absolutely no wait to get a table! Our waitress told us she was a little bit busy but she got our drinks right away! I had the mushroom Swiss burger and my buddy had three crispy tacos. My burger was so hot I had to put it back down! It was fresh, delicious, and the flavor just knocked me out! If you are out and about, and looking for a quick bite this is definitely the place to go to! For a taco plate and a burger 46 bucks was a bit expensive with our sodas. The quality of the food? Unmatched! Definitely put this place on your list!

This is a nice comfortable place to have some food and watch a game with a group of friends. I went to this restaurant for dinner with a group of friends. The service was friendly and attentive, but the food was nothing to write home about. I ordered the home wrecker dog bowl, which was decent but not very flavorful. Too much stuff in the bowl and it had a kind of gross look. The portions were very large. The fries that came with my friend's food were very dry. The restaurant was clean and cozy, but the ambiance was nothing special. I would give this place 3 out of 5, based on the overall experience. It was an average experience that did not impress me or disappoint me too much. The small menu of draft beers was okay. Had all the regular beers that anyone would expect to have in a sports bar.

Stopped by here with my cousins while we were in the Waco area for a drink. This is a true, no frills, pub vibe place and loved that about it. TVs are EVERYWHERE and would be a great place to sit at while a professional sport, of your choice, game is on. Our bartender was nice as well.

Food was tasty but service was a bit slow - I think they were a bit understaffed. Our waitress was kind and was doing her best but don't go here for lunch if you're wanting something quick, unless they bring on some more help for busy lunch days. Seating is limited and seat yourself, so if you don't want high top bar style chairs, might be a wait.
