Wedding Reception · 40 guests · September 2024 · Beer Garden + Beer Bar
Great venue, especially for a day time wedding. We received lots of compliments on the food, vibe, and overall set up. Excellent events team to work with.
Extra charge for bringing in a DJ. If you only rent the back half, then there will be external guests eating in the front half of the restaurant. No bridal suite to get ready.
