What makes it special: High-energy bar with wing-friendly pacing and group-ready happy hour deals.
Who should go: Big groups and birthday crews
When to visit: Weekdays early evening
What to order: Buffalo wings, nachos, frozen drink
Insider tip: Order wings as your first food—kitchen timing slows after 6.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: No on-site parking; nearby garages available but expensive. Street parking is limited and unreliable after 5pm.
Dress code: Casual to smart-casual. Jeans and sneakers are fine; groups often dress up slightly for celebrations.
Noise level: Loud. High-energy bar atmosphere—conversation requires leaning in during peak hours.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes without a reservation, longer for large groups
Weekday lunch: No wait typically; bar and tables turn quickly
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes – shareable bar snacks like nachos, fries, and salads work well.
Vegan options: Limited – a few sides may be adaptable, but not a strong vegan destination.
Gluten-free options: Limited – some items can be modified, but no dedicated gluten-free menu or prep guarantees.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Not ideal for a quiet first date. It’s loud and group-oriented, better suited for casual hangouts or double dates than one-on-one conversation.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, especially early. Arrive before 6pm for the best shot, and be flexible with booth or high-top seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Early evening only. Kids are generally fine before happy hour peaks, but it turns into a full bar scene later at night.
Best For
Better for: Large groups, birthday energy, frozen drinks, and wings that hold up under volume.
Skip if: You want a quieter wing bar, a focused food experience, or an intimate setting.
