  • "Awful 'service'. Came in for Happy Hour, ordered a Yuengling and asked for the HH menu. 30 minutes later, after all others had been given menus and ordered, the server asked if I was ok! Got up and left."
  • "We asked for a manager and our waitress said she was the manager. No management skills and the worst attitude."
