Kitchen Hours: Sunday – Thursday 11:00am – 9:00pm and open Friday and Saturday until 10:30pm
Hitting this place up for lunch or a weekday dinner is perfect for families. It’s never too busy and usually filled with other parents and kids (read: small outbursts are tolerated at a much higher level because, hey, we’ve all been there!). The main dining area is rustic and visually interesting for kids– kinda makes you feel like you’re in a wooded cabin. There are lanterns hanging from realistic looking trees and the black ceiling is covered with “stars”.
The wait staff immediately unloads a ton of fun stuff to keep the little ones occupied including crayons and coloring booklets, veggies and ranch dipping sauce, plastic take-home cups with lids (yay!) and those wax Wiki sticks (my kids favorite creation: eyeglasses). The kids’ menu is plentiful with options and the adult meals are fairly priced. And the beer is cold too, just sayin.

There’s a lot of thought put into making this a great experience for kids. Thanks for making it fun for everyone.
Pulled pork sandwiches cures the worst of days. Love this place.
