Bar
👍👍 Last time I went there we all had an amazing time. The bartender was very tall. There was a funeral for a bird. Three people made burritos and drank til they puked.

Dingo Dog Brewing Company
Brewery
👍 Was gonna give 3 stars, but to be non-profit in the interest of saving doggo lives definitely earns an extra star.
