Good place to stop for a beer after a show at the Anthem and let the lines for Uber and Lyft die down before you go home.

The chowder was tasty; lots of meat and veggies but 2/3rds the cost of an entree. Wow! If you have issues with loud places, come early and sit upstairs in the bar . The cement walls block the sound.

Go in early for the good menu before it gets busy and service suffers. The Claypot Chicken Wings and Short Rib Burger are great… the Gruyere & Brie Grilled Cheese is also on point.

Shahad

Amazing chicken wings and yummy crab sliders . Great vibe for chilling with nice views .

Nash Pleasant

Solid bar food. Loud atmosphere on the weekends. Good spot to watch the game

Amy Cummings

Cool, industrial spot. Some beers from the tap had weird flavor though.

Stuart Wright

Can’t really recommend anything. Service was non-existent had to go to the bar to put a food order and stand their in line for 15 minutes. They forgot my beer , and the food was mediocre.

Ian Grubman

Really big space with a long outdoor patio right next to The Anthem . But food and beer selection were just okay for the high prices.

Carolyn Fidelman

Good service and food. They need a shade for the afternoon sun.

Allison Kasic

Take the worst grilled cheese you’ve ever had, then burn it but manage to not melt any of the cheese in the process. That’s what this grilled cheese tastes like.

Will Wray

Great food! The paddock chowder !

Bar bites not bad. Lot of seating for this size bar .

Nice place. Was very loud and busy. The drinks were good but got ungodly expensive really fast.
