Food scene
Best burger in the area. Amazing loaded tater tots!! :) Janey is the owner and has the best bar staff and often has live music and Friday night karaoke!! (So fun!) Kids are welcome. There are pool tables and electronic dart games. The decorations and "upstairs VIP" room are something to behold! Pictures in the "birdcage" chairs and by the antique trucks are a MUST! Beer and wine only- setups are allowed.
