Really cool place. Very filling burger. Not a frozen patty, homemade. Cheese curds were great, along with fried pickles. Catfish nuggests were also amazing! Went with a group of friends so we were able to sample a little bit of everything. Bull riding was a lot of fun, so was the pool hall. The owner did a really amazing job making the place to hangout and have a good time. Looking forward to going back!

Excellent place to play pool. 8 diamond tables well taken care of. Plenty of things to do and see like the mechanical bull or the mud bogs.
