Fish and chips was awesome!!! the French onion soup was perfect. Delicious. Cheesy on top great place to eat.
Really a fun place in an area of town called "Pol-Town" #1 the best wings in this town! They offer breaded and non breaded (my fave) bone in wings and breaded boneless wings. #2 great burgers #3 a lot of event type stuff- like bingo and trivia nights. Did i mention- they have outdoor volleyball courts there! Really fun for the whole family. OMG- the best fried pickles Ive ever had. They are not the typical corn meal breading- but a tempura style. Its not for everyone- but I love them. Delightful! The negatives- they don't always have things on the menu- and it might even be WING NIGHT and they may be out of wings- all day. That isn't unusual. Service can be a hit or a miss but usually good. They offer a full bar with adequate options and a better than average beer selection. It does sometimes get busy there- and when that happens - the parking lot is a train-wreck. People park willy-nilly and Ive been jAmmed up there a while until someone moved their car. This is definitely my place when i want wings and fried pickles (provided they have them). And the not often order peanut butter burger- is really good.
Delicious food. Very friendly staff Quiet bar atmosphere at lunchtime Would recommend
This review is for the pizza only. I love JJ's pizza. It might be the best pizza I've ever had! On this occasion we had a large hand tossed supreme pizza. The crust was nice and soft - not over cooked nor any brown coloring. The pizza is piled with meat. The ground sausage has a little spice flavor. JJ's cooks their green peppers ahead of putting them on the pizza so they are softer after being baked. There is so much cheese on top - it forms a nice think bed of deliciousness! The sauce isn't very prominent but does add a small amount of flavor without over powering it. Give JJ's pizza a try!!
Bourbon Alert. Hold Please. Great neighborhood bar. Excellent cheeseburgers and wings and selection of craft and 'regular' beers. Great selection of well drinks. But hold-up. On the back row they have Blade and Bow, Blanton's, Eagle Rare and Booker's bourbon. Yes, please.
