It’s more than just a bar and grill—it’s a relaxed escape where good food, good drinks, and good company come together.
The pool tables are kind of fast, but kept up pretty well. The bartender is super friendly and “on” her job. The fried pickles and jalapeño poppers weren’t greasy, were super crispy, and very tasty… came out HOT!!! This was the second time we’ve come here with the same results. It’s kind of a smokey bar… as in, even with nobody really in here and smoking, you can still smell the smoke. After our music finished playing, it was nothing but country… lol… those last two things are the only negatives.
This is an amazing local bar. It's a smoking bar but the staff treats my wife and I like family, and can't beat the prices for drinks and food. We love the chicken wings and the Philly cheese steak sandwich. They have pool tables, darts, cornhole, and karaoke nights. They do all kinds of events and even have some special singers come out to play. My wife and I find ourselves hanging out here a lot more than we ever thought. If you are in the area and what a great country bar vibe, definitely hit up knight moves. My biggest suggestion for the bar is to fix the paper towel holders in the bathroom and get a better sign up front so it is a bit easier to find.
Awesome down to earth place to blow off some steam. Great atmosphere great people and awesome food. THEY SERVE LIQUOR
Great food and service. They still allow smoking so we only go at very early afternoon. The smoke smell is still pretty strong but no active smokers that early. It's really a shame because there are tons of people in the area who would love a local bar like this. You have to drive into HSV to get anything similar.
