Don't bother, this place thinks its waterfront material,some barely set foot in the door before covid check and others just stroll in no mask no check-in, let alone the ridiculous prices now, $9 for a pint of coke eh, ba bye, was gonna get some lunch but even that isn't even decently priced for a mid week

Food is barely decent and during covid they enforce you to wear a mask even though you are about to eat. Staff are rude would not advise unless you don't mind being served by ignorant staff
