    Have visited twice now and each time has been great. The wings are huge and made fresh. They have lots of options for sauces but the bourbon sauce is the best. I am normally not a fan of bone in wings, but these guys have changed my opinion. Best wings in the area.

    Absolutely fantastic! My husband said they were the best chicken gizzards and livers he’s ever had - definitely hand breaded and fresh! We also had the chicken sandwich and catfish sandwich… both were great. Service was outstanding. We look forward to coming here again. I have a feeling people are missing out on this little gem!

    We ordered pick up tonight. I 100% started eating it before I got a picture, because what in the bourbon sauce is this?! Do you sell it by the gallon?! And we just got boneless wings to appease the children, so I can only imagine what bone in tastes like. We’re huge blue cheese dressing fans and my husband is picky about it….. He just let me know he’d drink it, I truly don’t doubt that. So now it’s our mission to try everything on your menu. We also had the straight from down south tasting hush puppies. Not disappointed at all.

    You see the bar everytime you drive Rte. 2! Just stop! It’s a gem just off the main drag. The inside is spotless and the owners take great care in creating a cozy and chill environment. The music and tv’s aren’t blaring, but they are available. It’s great place to watch a game at the bar (tables and stools available). If you are planning an event, there is a large dining room that seats up to 50 people. The best part, the fried shrimp! It’s delicious! We also sampled the cheese curds, fries, coleslaw like KFC used to serve, and fried mushrooms. All delicious. They are known for their wings and boy did they look and smell great! You will see the owners working their butts off. They are truly local and this place has been around for years, previously across from Mondolez off Forrest Hills Rd. I’d give 10 stars if I could!
