Sat there for 40 minutes while other patrons we're given their food, who arrived and ordered after us mind you. After we asked about our order,which was chicken wings,grilled cheese, nachos and a burger, we were told she forgot to put the order in!! Wewere the only other table there! 2 tables! Never again! Shouldn't have to wait an hour for basically apps! Disappointed diner!

An intimate venue to listen to live music. Artsy environment and a long bar with wooden high back chairs instead of those metal stools that seem to be everywhere. A few high top tables make it enjoyable to see the band playing. I was happy with The VanGogh, a grilled cheese sandwich with apples and onions. The food is made with care and they aim to please. They offer a halforder of nachos and have homemade options that take care in the kitchen. Prices are reasonable and all ages seemed to keepcoming through the door. A playful and happy place with a welcoming staff.

I really enjoyed the atmosphere at The Stomping Ground. There was live music, and luckily, I visited on an open mic night, so nearly all the songs were original. The gourmet grilled cheese options all sounded delicious, and I chose the Sinatra. I also noticed others ordering wings, which looked amazing—I’ll definitely have to try those next time. They have a great selection of ciders and beers. I loved all the art and quirky decorations around the place. Such a cool spot!

A lively and cozy spot to enjoy food and drinks with friends. The unique decor adds character, and the cocktail and beer selection is impressive. The food is filling and generously sized, though it could benefit from a little more seasoning.

Had a drink here while bar hopping. The live band was excellent, but the acoustics in the venue were quite poor. The bartenders struggled to hear orders, making things a bit chaotic behind the bar. Despite that, they crafted great drinks, and my Moscow mule was served in an authentic copper mug. It’s a solid spot to catch a band, but probably not the best choice for a first date.
