Just about a 4. Came because we'd heard good things about the wings. They were indeed good wings, but they're definitely not destination wings. By all means try them if you're in the area. Had one "sauce" from each spice level. The lemon popper dry rub from the "hot" list, was not spicy at all. The 2 lower spice levels were quite tasty. The burger from our group hit the same note. Good, not great. Curds were very good. No thighs available on the day we came. Service was ok. I think they may have been a bit short staffed. Brought water instead of lemonade and forgot the extra ranch until it was not much use. Friendly enough, but definitely no idle chit chat due to how busy the staff were. Seemed like a good local crowd having lunch in there. That's always a good sign. I'd come back for sure, but wouldn't make it a priority.

Very friendly staff! I came in for takeout and they still took care of me as if I was dining in. $11 for more food than most people can eat in a sitting; the chicken thigh meal was delicious and the batter was flavorful and very crispy! The meal comes with a ton of fries, bread, and a small cup of coleslaw. The bar has a very pleasant atmosphere and is a great place to hang out in the evening. Highly recommended!

Still the best wings that I have had. No matter the flavor getting big wings that are grilled and not fried are truly amazing! JB3 and jerk seasonings are my favorite flavors!

This a neighborhood bar, great food and service. The wings are great and the beer is reasonably priced. The chips appetizer with buffalo sauce is to die for!

This was my first time dining here and came with my family and we were pleasantly surprised! The prices are phenomenal and the chicken comes out hot and steamy, fresh and crunchy! The chili and the cheese curds are delicious too! The staff was also friendly. Only thing was the music was a bit loud and it made it a little tough to hear sometimes. This was a late lunch for us so it just seemed a bit louder than expected. Great music selection though! Can definitely see this place being great for watching sports games! Will return!

Our first time here. We're from out of town staying at the Hampton Inn for a few days, walked by and stopped in. The chicken is absolutely the best fried chicken ever. Great service. Great price for food and drinks. We liked it so much, we came back the following day. Must try!

Some of the best wings I’ve had. Various selections. They had a couple limited time flavors as well. 100% recommend and will be back!
