It is large and roomy and offers up what is most likely a very friendly atmosphere during game days and evenings (we went during lunch and it was pretty dead). The menu is very typical and not very lengthy. All of the basic bar and grill staples are available but where they get some added brownie points is in the number of beers they have on tap. When asked we were told over 30 so a nice selection is available.
Burgers
Sticking
with tradition we ordered up the Big Big, a half pound of beef that was
actually grilled to our specifications and served on a Kaiser roll. For
eight bucks you get the burger and two toppings of your choice. One is
eaten up with cheese so if you don't want to pay even more you have to
decide on the one bit of garden or other goodie you want to include.
This did not make either of us happy.
Then
the burgers came out and proved to be rather pedestrian. Yes the beef
tasted fresh and it was juicy. Both of us had buns that were just a
touch old and probably shouldn't have been used. The cheese was
basically there and neither added nor subtracted from the burger. Don't
misunderstand, there weren't bad burgers. They weren't good either. They
were about as middle of the road as you can imagine, in fact, maybe a
little below average.
There
may have been any number of reasons for the quality not being up to our
hopes and expectations. Who knows. What we do know is that for the
cost, this is a place we cannot recommend. Make your own decisions,
though. If you're out near Kings Island then by all means check this
place out. If you have a better experience then let us know.
