We were pleasantly surprised when we stumbled across this place. The chicken tacos were top notch and had the best margarita I’ve ever had. Highly recommend. Also the bartender was super sweet.

The only complaint I have is The Brahma was a smidge on the greasy side for me. Other than that everything else was amazing. The atmosphere is pretty dang cool here. I love that it’s a firefighter themed place and the decoration is . Keep up the awesome work guys&gals.

Located in the brewery area near Manchester Road. Attended on a Saturday night. Great crowd. Adult-Aged individuals, very mature atmosphere. R&B trivia night. Good drinks, good food. The bar was consistent and they were pretty quick with the service. You cannot order at your table you have to order at the bar and then you can order food from your table. The restrooms were a little bit outside of the property but not outdoors, you have to walk into a common restroom area I think is shared amongst the other establishments but it was very clean. The seating area was clean it was very relaxed atmosphere very good R&B music. There is room for you to dance if you would like to dance also the vibe for just sitting and chilling. It gives off a very smooth easy-going atmosphere with good food and spirits. There are TVs inside playing sports on several big screens. A bar atmosphere but also mixed with a lounge atmosphere. Very welcoming and a good spot to come with friends. They also have a sitting area outside that's very comfortable as well. I will definitely return.

Decided to stop by and give them a try since they just opened. Service was prompt and food was great! A group of us tried out the burgers, nachos, and wings and we're pretty happy with everything. Keep pushing forward and always look to improve when you can. We'll be back!

This place is amazing. Excellent atmosphere honoring firefighters & first responders. Awesome service at the bar by Tony, who spent extra time talking to us about his favorite menu items and the various social activities they host during the week. The food was truly excellent. I love a good hot dog- but this was honestly the BEST hot dog I’ve ever had. The pretzel bites and fries were equally delicious & the cocktails were perfect!

Went in for the first time on 7/23/23 for lunch. They opened at 11 am, and I was the first one there. The bartender took my order, had me pay for it, and my food was done within 10 minutes. Everything was fresh and hot. I ordered the wings with my sauces on the side. They were very good in size, and the fries was absolutely phenomenal. I will definitely be returning and trying something else on the menu. The atmosphere is very relaxed and chilled.
