    Honestly wasn't sure what I was walking into when I visited with my brother and boyfriend, but left pleasantly surprised!

    It was beautiful, so we grabbed a table outside and started off with some bottled beer. The menu was so freakin cheap! I got a wrap, my brother got a burger, and I can't remember what my boyfriend got. Beer.

    The people were friendly. One biker guy had a ginormous pitbull that looked like a killer, but was the sweetest baby ever. He let us watch him when he ran in for a beer every now and again. I love animals, so this was a big factor in my rating.

    I'm not sure if we would fit in with some of the weekend crowds, but I feel like it would always be a good time no matter what!

    Perfect roadhouse-type place. Soundtrack is intense, meaty, blues-y, diverse: Rage Against, Joe Bonamassa, 50 Cent, country (Chris Janson), Metallica. Food is great; burger was perfect. People are friendly ... no nonsense ... 0 pretense. Beer is cheap. I loved this joint. I'll visit again as soon as I can. What is the gigantic, abandoned facility across the street that's in the process of being razed? Wow.

    Great Beer Bar. A Lot of Hogs to look at and a friendly crowd.

    I was in the area, and had 45 minutes to kill. The Sugar Shack popped up on Yelp, so I stopped in.

    Classic neighborhood bar. Cold beer, fried food (in a good way), and good people.

    This is a great spot.

    One would never guess what's waiting inside.  On this cold night were 6 jovial strangers gathered at a bar reminiscent of an old diner.  Glitzy and kitchsy would be the interior decorating.  
    A small griddle and 2 counter top fryers let you know what to expect from the cuisine.  They did have one offering I thought was odd for a bar.  How does potato crusted, deep fried cod sound?  Sounds pretty good at 12 am.
