It was great sat outside had chicken strips fries and beer cheese . My boyfriend had the bacon cheeseburger sandwich and fries
I stop into this bar whenever I'm in town. Most recently I was present when a patron who was acting belligerently was asked to leave. The staff handled the situation respectfully and professionally despite the individual causing a scene. I commend the bartenders and manager for the way they handled the situation.
I was at the Esquire as part of a private group. They did a nice job of reserving space for us and providing wait staff. Food and drinks were great and the staff were very friendly and efficient. Very hard working staff. Our group had a great time.
Had my 69th birthday celebration there. Jackie the owner was excellent in her work ethic for the reservation, the food ordering and the server who I believe was named John was excellent as well. This was in February 2024, I just forgot to write a review. Everyone who came had a great time. Thank you to Esquire!
Some of the best bar food in town, definitely check out the wings, fried pickles and mozzarella sticks!
Best bar in town! Consistently great food, friendly staff, good drinks. Always excellent! But, COME ON, bring back the peanuts. Why buy a successful business and take out one of best things about it? Crazy.
our server was so nice always checking up on us. the vibe is fun. cocktails tasted good. my fave so far was the Moscow mule. food was good. I got fish sandwich and onion rings. the fish was pretty big and juicy. onion rings could be better. they have a condiment bar and it was clean and fresh. prices are …
Their pulled BBQ pork was GREAT!! I'll be there this Friday to have their fish sandwich! I appreciate that they put the BBQ sauce on the side rather than on the pork. . 6/7/2023 Sat outside to enjoy the beautiful weather. My cheese burger was perfect. and so was the cold Blue Moon. Cheers!
The best local bar in town!!!! A very nice local bar. There are a lot of selections of bar food at this place. They have a variety of drinks here. All the staff are very nice and friendly. Cool!!!!
Lots of space with plenty of seating and bar access. Has a dive bar feel without feeling like you don’t belong. They are extremely friendly and welcoming. I came on a Friday and it’s fish sandwich Friday for $9.95.
