"I played guitar there last night and it was so cool Everyone was so nice and when they asked me to crank it up the sound was amazing!! I’ll be back!! Jimmy The Man LOVES THE ELKS!!!"

— James Darle Jones Sr

"If I could give them zero starts or below I would!!!!! Who you are depends on wait time for service. It's a horseshoe shaped bar with a great flow but when the bartender stays in one spot and only waits on a select few it's infuriating. This is EVERY TIME we go in there. We understand the rules drinks, food and then tickets. But when you wait for over an hour to get tickets and yet certain people get theirs right away. When we said something to the bartender she said she couldn't help it there were so many kitchen tickets. That wasn't remotely the issue"

— Kristin Tawney
