The atmosphere is great, but the physical space is too small and the music too loud. The bartender and owner is a hardass, and kicked out my 21-and-under friends (Who were simply chatting and enjoying the music) as soon as the 10 Oclock bell sounded. The wine is good; however, the bartender refused to give me water because I hadnt tipped him for the wine I bought (I did not know that tipping the bartender was the social norm). Overall, I did not enjoy my experience and will not be returning.

Small and charming, a great place to have a beer and conversation, far enough away from the loud, annoying barmuda triangle. The regulars are super fun, and the bartenders are awesome. Sometimes they watch Game of Thrones or Walking Dead on the big TV in the back, and karaoke on Thursday nights is a blast!

We keep ending up here. Great place to sit with friends and have a bottle of wine or a few beers. Low key adult establishment with good food and service. They have live music and the attached wine store has the best wines and best prices in town. Make sure to check the coupons page on their site!

Love this place! Its a little cramped, but it definitely has a special quirkiness to it because of this. The live music is always great and the waiters/waitress are very helpful. Would suggest it to anyone who wants to go out for a couple drinks with their friends!

Place is too small to fully enjoy live music. We had to show up 3 hours ahead of time to even get a seat. Staff was very rude and also the regulars were also very rude. Drinks were very small and not mixed well. We will not be returning.

Drinks are great, food is amazing, the bands are wonderful, and the staff is exceptional! One of the best places in Mankato to grab a drink with friends and listen to some great music.

I always love coming to this place! The food is amazing and the atmosphere is great! A wonderful place to come to when you want to get away from the "usual" bar scene in Mankato.

Great food. Great atmosphere. Kinda reminds you of one of those hidden places off the road everyone goes to and youve only heard about, but you have to find it...

A great place for drinks and entertainment, especially if youre NOT looking for the "fratastic" college bar scene thats easily found elsewhere in Mankato.

Staff was really nice and friendly! The place was very small and had a cute aesthetic. A nice place where I can have a decent conversation and a drink.

A real hidden treasure among mundane places in this town. Good food and both fine wines and good beers available along with a nice menu .

Jo Pavlisich

A safe place to have a drink and talk. Very friendly and avoids the bar hoppers. Love this place and their great selection of drinks.

Kerensa Morrison

Love this place. Love the feel and the bartenders. The people are prenominal. Thursdays is great for people who like to karaoke.

Colton Roballo

Karaoke and the atmosphere was great! Lots of seating away from the buzz. Great if you want to have a nice conversation!
