Place is unassuming from the outside, but opens into a decent size dining area with a wrap around bar. There is even an outside area, but I didn't get a chance to check it out. We had around 50 people come through for an event and there was still space for other people to enjoy their drinks. Unfortunately, they close early being near the city center, but it's a good spot for right after work, or pre-dinner drinks. Place is casual, but the food menu is pretty decent, including wraps, sandwiches, and flatbreads.

Had their burger/sliders for lunch and they were the best I have ever had. Gone to this sports bar only 3 times over maybe 7 years but the food has always been very good.

Great spot that closes a little on the early side, but that just further promotes it as the best after work spot for a bucket of Modelo!
