“ Great Margs (2 for 1!!), big menu with an interesting selection of sandwiches and burgers, and very friendly staff. Our server Steven was very attentive and gave us the full low down for pride weekend. We’ll be back to check our brunch! ”
“ Talk about an experience.. this place has a happy hour from 11am- 7pm and each perfectly mixed drink comes with a token for a free drink during those happy hours. Now on to the food. That stuff came out fresh off the heat and was ever so tasty. **They are part of the LGBTQ community, so if that lifestyle offends you then you're seriously going to miss out by not giving them a chance** The employees are exceptionally kind and helpful. A patron brought their dog inside in a carry stroller and the bartender brought over a bowl of water for said doggy!! So freaking sweet. Now if only I could move to St. Pete, FL and have this food and environment often. Don't worry, I'll certainly be back! Also the gayest store on the planet mobile unit is typically not there, we went during their weekend of Pride celebrations (which should be on everyone's bucket lists) ”

Than came out server Michael another friendly and personable person, to my surprise I notice that very staff member was wearing a mask, Specially even the kitchen staff. I had the punky Russian sandwich, it was a little 1000 island but it was a quick fix. I still give it a 10. Ozzie had the punky Cuban and we give it a 10. The service was great. If you never been, than it is a most. It's nice to see that even some restaurants are wearing mask. ”

And my boyfriend got the build a basket. My burger was to die for but the fries were so delicious! I usually don’t like waffle fries but holy moly it was so delicious. My boyfriend also got the spicy waffle fries with nacho cheese and meat topped with the aioli sauce. That was also delicious. I was impressed with the taste of everything. We both said we will definitely need to order food here more often. ”
