Food Scene

The food is seriously yummy, the drinks are even better. They do a great happy hour weeknights until 6pm or Saturday afternoons with $6 martinis and reasonable priced appetizers. Did I say yum? Grab a seat at their outdoor patio next to the fire, couple that with super friendly staff and great owners. It's one of our favorites!

Known for their exotic burgers and adult milkshakes, this place is worth a stop either before or after a movie. Their website touts a burger adventure and they aren't kidding! Whether you are temped by the Luther served in 2 glazed donuts or are looking for more of a gourmet version (I recommend the Not Your Mama's burger including crimini mushrooms, swiss, parmesan, onion strings, ketchup and truffle mayo. ) this place is worth visiting.

Drinks & Nightlife

They have a nice selection of wines that you can get in 1/4, 1/2, full or bottle sizes coupled small plates meant for sharing. As well as tasty charcuterie and cheese boards and desserts. It's fun to be able to try different wines, some are local and some are from far far away.
