My partner & I came across this place while on our anniversary trip! The atmosphere was immaculate & I loved all the decor inside & the outside area in the front where folks go to smoke. Management & servers were amazing, they were so welcoming & friendly. The bartender even gave us cold tomatoes while we were drinking our beer & we will never forget how random & awesome it was 😂
Thanks Piranha!!

Sat down. Bartenders was talking g to regulars. After 6 minutes of siting at the bar & no one even said hello or acknowledge I was there I took off. I will try to give this place another chance.

Pretty chill bar for grabbing a couple of beers. Was served pretty quickly by the bartender on duty. Chatted here with a friend & had a couple of pints & was never bothered by staff.

They don't even care about customers. Bartenders are too entitled to serve. You don't deserve any tips.
