    Super fun local place to go and dance. Loud music, good drinks, and the staff is great. They have a deck that they are currently renovating I believe so I can't wait to see what it looks like for summer. My only complaint is that the bathroom is kind of rickety and very tiny, hard to walk around in

    Great little local bar. Cheap delicious food, good drink prices, and friendly staff. Sometimes it might take a little bit to get an order in if only a couple people are running the bar but that's expected. Highly recommend going here for $1 tacos on Tuesday. If you can eat 20 in an hour it's free, but the tacos are so filling, 3-5 will fill you up.

    Went here four times over past year since it is close to home.  This place needs to decide if it wants to be a bar that serves good food on the side or an actual restaurant.  If restaurant, then service greatly needs improved with a dedicated waitress during lunch and dinner time.  From the lack of cars lately it appears it has decided to be neither.  Currently the bartender also serves as a waitress, which explains our experiences or lack thereof.  Every time we took a table, the bartenders came bringing us menus to the table and getting drink orders, even when busy.  We always tip well for good service, and are remembered at other establishments and treated accordingly.  First two times were good enough to return and the place was busy.  First time got a pulled pork special that was wonderful, with great portions and side dishes.  Wife had chicken dinner which was moist, crispy on outside and well done with good fries on the side.  Second time wife had fish which was well done, moist and salad was good too.  I tried their all you can eat wings.  Nice sizes, fries were good, but had to send one batch back that were undercooked on a busy night.  No big deal.  Third time tried their large nacho platter, which was a perfect size for me to make a meal out of, not feeling overstuffed or bloated after finishing it.  Last time I went there by myself and there was a slight drizzle, and when I opened the front door a man using a walker was just leaving.  I held the door for him, and folks at the bar, including the bartender, were watching as he left.  I entered and took a table by myself as the bar was full, planning on getting the nacho platter again.  The bartender proceeded to do a happy dance over the man with the walker leaving, letting everyone know how difficult a customer he usually was for her.  When I held the door for the guy I had made eye contact with the bartender, as well as when I walked past the bar to take the table, so she knew I was there.  The bartender apparently had so distracted herself with her happy dance that she went back to entertaining the customers at the bar, checking if they needed more drinks.  I figured she would come to my table next, and as I had some papers from work to read, I began reading them while waiting to be served.  Several times customers at the bar looked over their shoulders at me, but no one said a word.  After 20 minutes, two couples arrived together and took a table.  They went up to the bar and ordered drinks, then had to return to the bar to ask for menus.  As the blonde bartender handed them their menus we again made eye contact, and I raised my hand for one but she quickly went back to taking care of entertaining the bar, walking down the bar and away from my end.  With that, I got up and left out the main door.  As I left one of the bar customers said, "I think you're losing a customer," to the bartender as the door closed behind me.  There is a pizza shop 5 minutes away down the same road that I have to pass to get to Frog's Hollow.  I was served a salad within 3 minutes and a steak sandwich shortly thereafter.  Real shame, because their Frog Hollow's food was good; but to get it you obviously have to serve  yourself.  Should I have spoken up sooner?  Never had to before.  But then, owner was present those days.  Obviously when the cat is away, the mice tending bar play.  Lately I see only 3-4 cars during prime dinner time on weekends, sometimes only 1-2 during week days, so their service must continue to be just as bad.  All the lunch specials in the world won't matter if you have to wait long for service, serve yourself, and then bartender expects good tips for the little they do for eating customers, and trash customers behind their backs when their own service is poor.  When there aren't many customers, you can't tip poorly and not expect mouthy bartenders not to remember and provide bad service the next time.  Owner needs to decide what he wants the place to be, and if local restaurant then either get bar help willing to work and just look good behind the bar or add a waitress.  Obviously other customers are feeling the same way.

    By the name hopefully you figure out they have frog legs on the menu. They do a phenomenal job with them too. Very tender and flavorful. Had their wings a few times as well and they where great on their own. Beer prices are pretty reasonable too

    I was searching for a bar/restaurant that was local to Ft Indiantown Gap and needed one with wifi. Chose this place as it was close and advertised they had wifi. Once I got here, they did in fact have wifi but no internet access. Almost left to find someplace else but decided to eat here anyway. Wings were decent with tasty sauces but that is where it ends. Waitress was overworked waiting tables and the bar. Service was very slow but that is because there was only one waitress. I gave this place two stars for the food but I will not be returning.
