Food and Drink Quality

Cons:
"I ordered a cheeseburger, loaded dirty fries and an Oreo milkshake. All were fantastic with the milkshake honestly being the best thing I have had in a while."
"There were no beef patties and there were no buns so we had a naked vegan patty which was nice but for the price was slightly lackluster."

"However, when we went on the Saturday evening, the music was so loud it was hard to concentrate on learning any new games."
