Three of us went for some beers & burgers. Pretty great local beer selection. The fries and salads were good. Pretty yummy burgers too. The server was busy, but we didn't mind and wanted to hang out. I'd totally go back.

I love all of the wood on the bar and behind the bar and all over, but the food is average at best. I don't come here for the food but the ambiance and to grab a drink.

We were entertaining guests with a new baby, so didn't want to go out. We ordered by phone (menu is easily accessible from their website) and ordered 1/2 lb bacon and western burgers (delicious and VERY filling), a black bean burger (similarly substantial), all with decent fries, plus a tomato basil pizza (a bit bland, with thicker french bread-type crust)....

Lots of attention to the customer, great breakfast menu. Try the mozzerella cheese, red pepper and asparagus omelet. Every employee who walked by made a point to smile and make sure we were taken care of. There were 70 patrons with outside seating. Our breakfast came quickly and was great with the obrien potatoes. Ferndale is a treat to visit... More
