Taxidermy: 5 Stars. Everything Else? Mangy at Best.
Long story short: If you're into taxidermy, tension, and pretzels-Mangy Moose delivers. Just don’t come hungry or expect your burger how you ordered it or prompt service.
The "soft" pretzel was anything but. More like petrified parchment twisted into disappointment.
Don't bother requesting your burger a certain way-well-done is apparently the chef's one and only option.
Proper Pig Flatbread pizza? The only thing proper was the audacity to charge for it. It came out flat, bland, and overpriced—like a disappointing date.
Also, don’t buy the message on their website (missing word is their verbatim message) “DELICIOUS, HEARTY, AND FAMILY-FRIENDLY”, “We keep our dinner menu affordable so your can enjoy our eclectic dining room without breaking the bank!” 9 adults, 3 kids (ages 11, 6 & 5) our bill was $405.28.
Our server was not easily found during our visit, so forget about getting refills or having unused dishes cleared. And whatever you do, do not try to help by bussing the table yourself. When we brought dishes to the bar-because we actually needed the space for our group-we were met with a snippy, "Sure, just set it up here since she's not already busy enough. Leave it on the table-we'll take care of it for you.”
...Except they didn't. That was kind of the whole problem.
Oh, and just before the check comes-not when you're ordering-the server casually drops that they don't split checks. This should really, REALLY be printed in plain sight at all establishments that have this practice.
Do with this information what you will…hopefully you have a better experience and ours was an anomaly.
Pro tip: Skip the upstairs Mangy Moose mess. Head to the first floor “Mangy Moose Cafe”—smaller menu, better experience, and actually worth every penny.
