So first off super dope atmosphere hence the whole reason I came to the bar. But do your self a favor and just skip this place. I'm not political but this is literally the definition of a lazy liberal establishment.(AND IM FROM CANADA 😅) Menu only QR code ok no problem but it wouldn't load on my phone and when I asked she laughed and said yeah pdf problem and when I asked for a paper copy she just said we didn't even have 1 copy 🤦♂️ ok use a fiends phone no biggie. Order a drink way over priced and not the same menu I found online. We had 1 drink 8:15pm then wanted to order food at 8:25 but both servers never came back even though looking directly at us and walking away multiple times. 8:55pm she finally came took a drink order came back tried to order food only to be told with attitude ohhhhhh our kitchen it closed.....at a bar downtown in a big city at 9pm? Seriously? Lol then the only good thing from the night she suggested was going to my brother's bar down the street for food. (Which was insanely good and great value!!!) Overall I was so disappointed in the service at this bar even with the amazing atmosphere I couldn't over come the short comings and terrible attitude of the staff. I never write reviews i just simply don't return. But I really don't want anyone wasting money at this place so just go to my brother's bar down the road you won't be disappointed!!

We recently rented a room for a birthday party and it was an amazing experience. Piper was the greatest. Everyone had a wonderful time. The food, drinks, and atmosphere was perfect. They even helped us with the playlist and it was perfect. Thank you to everyone for such a tremendous time.

Such a unique and awesome place, literally where else can you have these views? Have you seen the bear room? Also may be pricey, but they have a rotating beer option that's pretty great if you don't wanna break the bank and just enjoy the scenery. Literally our new fave midweek beer place.

Loved the whole vibe of this place!!! It made me feel like I was actually camping. The food was so delicious too. And it was a plus to see their dog around the restaurant.
