We Love Our Customers

  • Variety of Choices

    We want everyone to be happy, so we’ve put a lot of options in our bar menu list. We serve Budweiser, Coors, and other domestic beer brands. You can also try our specialty beer, such as Corona and Heineken. We also have finely aged wines as well as liquors.

  • Special Promos and Entertainment

    Save more than a few bucks by taking advantage of our daily specials, such as the $1.50 per beer promo every Monday. We’ll also keep you amused with our video poker and dart machines.

Fantastic Customer Service

We operate a family-owned enterprise, and we have three years of experience in the business. We primarily serve Kempton and the surrounding areas, but a lot of our customers come in from at least 15 miles outside the city.

Customer service is something we take seriously, as we want our valued patrons to keep coming back. We have a fantastic bar setup as well as dedicated and hardworking staff. We also offer variety seating to accommodate all types of customers.
