We’ve never had a bad meal here, tonight I ordered the chicken quesadillas and they were fantastic! We also ordered the homemade peanut butter pie and it was enough for our whole table to share! Our waiter, John, gave us his undivided attention - best waiter ever! He brought us samples of a few beers when we couldn’t decide (without us asking) and provided wonderful service all night! We will be back soon!

Saturday brunch is great! We sat in the bar. Half of my party ate brunch items and the other half ate hamburgers. Both were great! The hostess was friendly and helpful and our server was great! The servers are always friendly and efficient. Our favorite local eatery in Pittsboro.

Food was excellent, mimosa was great. Everything came out fairly quick. The only downside was the service - our waitress was very sweet, however, never came back after our food came out. We waiting at least 20 min for our check, and another 5-8 minutes for the check and card to be picked up. If they sped things up they could easily turn more tables and not have the wait be as long for those without reservations.

Our server was awesome! I wish I remembered his name. We enjoyed the fish tacos and burgers the best. The portions were just right at a fair price. Two of us opted for a flight to same the beer selection. It was a nice evening!

The food was good. My favorite was probably the sweet potato fries. The local burger was tender and juicy, but lacked some flavor. The portions were a good size. My wife and I shared the barbecue chicken salad and it tasted good but was a bit soggy. The service was fine, the waitress seemed to forget a few things and we also had to flag them down a few times to get some extra items.
