Great place to watch the game. Plenty of TVs and views from all seating. The staff was excellent, quick service, and friendly. The bratwurst, nashville wings, and fried pickles were all good.

It was our first time here, and we had a great time! I ordered their chili cheese dogs with homemade chili and a carrot cupcake for dessert. It tasted delicious! All our food was fresh and good. We sat in their outside seating area, and it was really nice. We'll definitely be back again!

This place is as awesome as I had heard!! I love the decor. It was perfect for the name. It is very family friendly. Our server, Cassidy was wonderful!! They were busy but we never lacked anything or had to ask for service. The food was awesome. Many different selections than ordinary. And the portions are large. It was hard to decide what to get because it all looked good. All the staff was super friendly and helpful. The owner/manager stopped by our table to check on us. Also, weird fact, the bathroom was so cool!! I highly recommend this place!! Definitely in my top 10.

The burgers are juicy and perfectly cooked. The grilled chicken was seasoned and cooked perfectly. The chili was the perfect texture and the lava cake came out quickly and was delicious. Definitely going back!

We went to Home Plate tonight for dinner. I had the taco salad, Mrs had grilled chicken and bacon sandwich, son had fried chicken sandwich, and my youngest had personal pizza. We also shared an order of cheese curds. Everything was excellent, it was really packed in the restaurant I guess this place is not a secret, and the service was great. This is an excellent choice for dinner. We will be going back!!!!
