Just the place for a late night beverage or two. Service was great and the food is definitely not bad either!
I heard folks refer to this as a dive bar. Bender's may be a little rough around the edges and the bartenders seem a bit rough, but the place is generally full of working class folks drinking good cheap drinks and having above average bar...More
The venue is a bit noisy for conversation, but it offers plenty of space, including an outdoor seating area. The drinks are excellent, and the menu features a great selection of both appetizers and main dishes.
If you're a fan of dim lighting and a Blade Runner aesthetic, this is the spot for you! On a serious note, it has a distinct dive bar vibe, but the wings and onion rings are absolutely delicious. It's a great option if you want to avoid downtown!
