We got there often. They don't short on the drinks, the locals like it too. The fries are fantastic and the food is some of the best in town. Great staff with good attitudes.
Yes they have gluten free bread and buns that are great.

Ordered food to-go for my boss and I over the phone after finding their menu online. Found out it was very outdated and they no longer had most of what was on there. I ordered myself the garlic burger, which they no longer served, and...More

We had this place recommended to us by the desk clerk at our hotel. It is overpriced bar food and the atmosphere was extremely loud and rude. The wait staff was short handed, and the woman who was working was spread pretty thin. While she...More

Our server was OUTSTANDING. Friendly and efficient, which was hard to find in Seaside. That said, this was kind of an average place with average food. The exception to this was their Fish N Chips which got a rave review by the person who ordered...More

The sign said to please be seated, so we sat down in a fairly small dining room. Menus were already on the table, so we decided what we wanted while we waited...and waited...and waited. There was half a smile in our general direction from a...More
