My mom and I stopped here for lunch on the way back from last minute grocery shopping. The exterior of the building is beautiful, and it has been around for nearly 200 years. So there is an old age charm about this place. Inside it is pretty modest with the bar being the main draw. But alongside the bar are a few booths, and beyond the bar they have an informal dining room as well as a game room. The lunch menu listed mostly sandwiches, but I did see a selection of wings and sauces which piqued my interest. In Pennsylvania, one can often find great wings in hole in the wall places made by small time cooks who make their own sauces. This place was no exception! I opted for 6 garlic and butter wings and 6 California gold rush wings. They charge this as 2 separate orders of 6 wings rather than a single order of 12 wings costing you about $2 more, but when the wings arrive, I doubt you will complain. Turns out, when they say wing, they mean the full wing. So each wing was really equivalent to two regular size wings. All of a sudden my 12 wings just exploded into 24 wings -- far too much food for me to eat. The garlic and butter wings were exceptionally good, among the best wings I have ever had. Fresh, rustically cut garlic generously adorned the wings. Lovely. The gold rush wings had honey mustard and hot sauce. These were pretty good, but not nearly as good as the butter garlic wings. I felt the heat was really missing from these, but the mustard had nuance which was nice. The wings themselves were definitely prepared to order and were very large. Service was really friendly, and everyone was down home. This is probably a good local drinking spot at night. Definitely recommend for the wings.
