This place is fantastic. Laid back vibe, good music and chill staff. Danny the bartender is a friendly dude and they have a unique offering of drafts. The porter was one of the best I’ve had in a while (from Great Lakes) and the nachos here are top 3 nachos I’ve ever had.House made blue tortilla chips, loaded with house made jalapeños and cheddar cheese and a homemade chili that is borderline mole sauce with nice chunks of beef. Will be ending all day hikes here. - MC
