Monday - Sunday:
11:00 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.

Our menu is our unique take on American Pub Fare—great food that pairs with great beers. We cook from the plate backwards: with an intentional and unwavering focus on quality. The vast majority of our menu options are made from scratch, using our beer as an ingredient whenever possible. We know making that extra effort is worth it.
