Very glad we made a convenient stop right off the bike trail for the best burger I’ve had in years. My advice?
Call a few friends, get some drinks, order the full size nachos and you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for having us Bully’s!
Delicious food, fantastic service on a busy Thursday night and a great lively atmosphere. Ashley was a super friendly and attentive server! We will definitely be back for the musical bingo that we unfortunately missed 😭

Right off the trail. If I had known they have a water cooler on the outside patio I would have brought in my water bottle to get some fresh cold water for our bike ride. Next time! Food was very good. All 8 of us had very positive comments. Basic American hamburgers, sand, pizza and apps.
They have large tv and pool table inside. We did not have to ask our waitress for anything she kept checking in on us even though we sat outside.

There were 4 of us I ordered the Racheal, not impressed. It was delivered with cold fries and the sandwich was very bland. Our server was new and didn’t place an order so 3 of us ate while she waited. The server apologized and stated it would be discounted on the bill but, when we received the check it wasn’t so we had to remind her to fix the bill. The shrimp Mac and Cheese was good and everyone else seemed to enjoy their meals but this is a place that I most likely I will never return to.

Awesome hot food with large portions. Had breaded pepper jack chicken, Reuben and little Smitty. All with hot fries. We all took half of our sandwiches home for the next day. Highly recommend

Stopped here on a bike ride because it's right off the trail. Indoor and outdoor eating space which is nice when it isn't too hot out. I split the tenderloin with a friend and it was plenty for both of us. Everyone's food looked and tasted great. You can upgrade to a lot of different sides as well. I would not say upgrading to the onion rings were worth it, but a friend upgraded to cheese curds and those were great. Plenty of drinks to go around and an overall great experience. Staff were nice and restaurant was clean. They do have a pool table as well.

Stopped in for a quick lunch while at my youngest daughter's softball tournament. I opted for the smaller version of the tenderloin and it was delicious. Service and staff were excellent.

My mom and I split a tenderloin and a calzone. All of the food was great; the only reason it wasn't a 5 star experience was because of the waitress. Kinda seemed like she wasn't happy to be there, which always dims an experience a bit.

Nice place to meet friends and enjoy . Service is friendly and always willing to make you feel like you are at the right place. The food is good, it's standard bar fare, nothing fancy but reasonable.

I love to support local businesses even when they have to increase their prices, but not if they do not give you what you thought you were paying for. I ordered to go tonight for Mother's Day Supper. I was missing the pulled pork in my Loaded Mac N Cheese and the portion of the fries was very small. Kinda disappointed to say the least.

Pork tenderloin is a must. You cannot eat this thing in one setting. It was like a "Man vs Food" Episode.....

Great addition to the area. But the customer service needs help. The wait staff could care less if you walk in to grab a drink. No greeting. This was the second time this has happened. There were two bartenders and no one greeted or left the bar to take our orders. The bar was full of a younger crowd. What they didn't realize is we were there for food and drinks and we tip well.
