“A Challenge To Get To But Worth It”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

Great wings but the single server is hard pressed to get the food to you quickly. There are a number of sauces and the ones we tasted were very good. Now the perfect wing accompaniment is cold beer but JR had a problem with keeping more than one type of beer cold. So the night that we were there I couldn't have my brew of choice (Bavaria) and it was Imperial or nada. Even an icy Pilsen would have worked. Also did I say that you need a 4 wheel drive and good suspension to get there? Coulda been a contender but I'll give them another chance.

“Overwhelm”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed February 25, 2013

The night we went to Jolly Roger it was packed, they didnt have the staff to provide a good service, and the quality of the food was just ok, bartender couldnt get drinks to us, he was running in circles....

“Great food if you have a long time to wait.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 24, 2013

5 star food/3 star service. We were staying at a house just up from the Jolly Roger & we went twice the week we were there. The wings and burgers are THE BEST EVER (not exaggerating). Unfortunately both times we were there our food took over an hour to come out after we had ordered it. It's a small, family-run place, I get it, but they need to hire more help. Luckily they are very nice & friendly about it all so you don't feel too annoyed- just really hungry!

“All Good in the JR Hood”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 22, 2013

Go check it out, especially if you eat chicken's wings and drink beer! The owners and locals who work there will make you feel welcomed, and often there is a poker game with a classy, colorful group on Saturdays.
