Everyone here is nice and friendly, the scenery is a bit older, just the way we like it. The cool Brett does a really nice job with the food and the menu, always an interesting special as well. Pool table, darts would be nice to have. There is an outdoor seating area as well. Drinks are yummy here too of course.

Surprisingly fun hole-in-the-wall bar! Went here to watch a March madness game on a whim and glad I did. The servers/waitresses were super nice and my brother and I agreed that the food was amazing. I would definitely come again and would order pick-up on their food menu if I wanted something quick and yummy. Good prices and happy hour/daily deals too.

Comfortable and genuinely inviting atmosphere and very hard working staff. Not super fancy and that's a good thing. This is a spot you can meet friends for a drink, grab some affordable and good food, and actually relax. Truly a hidden gem

Had lunch and beers yesterday- Loved it all!! Started with a very cold Oberon and Onion Chips. Those onion chips are to die for!! Make sure to ask for both Ranch and Chipotle Ranch for dipping! Had a second very cold Oberon and ordered the Italian Sub, and hubs had The Pig Shack with fries. Wowwweeee- all delicious, and those skinny fries...also super tasty! Typical bar atmosphere and great service! It's just a neat little local dive bar, with really tasty food! And Pull Tabs!

We have now ordered carryout here over 5 times. It never fails to meet our satisfaction. We look forward to dining in person here soon. But from the pizza sticks, Ruben, sliders, and BLT they know what they are doing. Definitely is a staple in our house. My only feedback is for the meals that come with chips, should come with homemade chips. They do everything well, this would just top it off.

Solid dive bar all-around, it's nice to walk here and have a few well-priced drinks and eat some decent bar food for pretty cheap, especially compared to other Royal Oak/Clawson bars. Cassandra is always a delight, i don't know the other bartenders by name but they're all good at enriching the experience. I've gone here with friends and by myself, the crowd is usually pretty friendly and good to chat with. Their cheese sticks have gotten me in the door more than a few times because they're HOMEMADE!!!! SO YUMMY

Very Bukowski. Best food prices in ALL of Oakland County. Very safe room. Familiar faces because people are serious about relieving their day of stress. Pool table makes for a basement feel. I am proud to say I tend bar Tuesday and Wednesdays.

If we ever want good bar food, this is where we order from. I've ordered delivery from here 4 times in a single week... Not that I should be proud of that but this place is that good. We've had their chicken tenders (4/5 tad too much salt) BLT (5/5 highly recommend) patty melt (5/5 great) pepperoni sticks (5/5 amazing app) grilled chicken sandwich (5/5 grilled chicken was juicy and tender with good flavor) potato skins (hard to give a score, they weren't as good cold so probably better ordering there) and we usually get chips (it's a bag of lays, they should really consider making their own) or fries (3/5 needs more seasoning, but we salt them ourselves). I've ordered delivery 6 times on GrubHub... One day I'll go visit in person, just hard because it doesn't look like their seating can accommodate more than a table of 4. If you want bar food, go here because I don't think they have anything bad on their menu.
