Bomb, especially for a dive bar. They are cash only so be prepared (not often. But once the ATM was not functional) Staff is friendly. Patrons are also friendly. You feel like a regular after your first visit.

We went middle of the day on Friday so the place was pretty much empty. The bar tender was very nice and quick to help us. Pool tables are in great condition, and they have a nice back patio with goats that you can pet! We will be coming back.

I had so much fun here at the waterhole. The bar tender crystal was amzing. She is so sweet and welcoming. She went out of her way to decorate the bar for my bachelorette party! Everyone was very nice. I recommend coming here if you wanna go to the bar, has two pool tables and a music box. It's not a night club bar but a nice friendly bar.

Underrated bar probably due to location, however the space is great and the customer service is stellar.

Came by to see the Saturday car show. Good group of folks, grabbed a coffee and Dr. Pepper with the owner fees the goats and enjoys the morning. Will come back for a few drinks and small town gossip.

We are so glad this place is open.. It doesn't matter if they are having a slow night or a busy night the staff here is wonderful and they make you feel glad your there. Unlike the staff at the circle S.. Anyone looking for a bar in the area go here over the other places.. It is cash only right now but who cares if you get great service and a friendly atmosphere. Mary is awesome.. And soon they will be serving food again.. They were closed down for a while but now are back open. And thank God because this area needed a good place..
