It’s literally a small bar in downtown Cleveland, and I loved it. We ordered the beef burger, chicken sandwich, the daily special taco, and some chips. I also tried the blackberry cider. The server actually recommended the donut cider, but I was hesitant—so she offered to let me try a few sips and said if I didn’t like it, she’d drink it herself. That was so kind and made the experience even better. The atmosphere was super chill, and the staff were all friendly. But the highlight was definitely the food. Everything was rich and flavourful. The beef patty was huge, and the chicken in the sandwich was huge, juicy, and seriously delicious!!! I’m 100% coming back—and next time, I’d like to bring more of my friends. This place is a gem!

Perfect bar in my opinion. Pat and Ora behind the bar are quite charming. Friendly patrons all with similar attitudes and goals - be cool and have a good time. Burger is solid. Don’t sleep on the specials - worth a try. My go to local joint.
