Dave's is an excellent place to enjoy a Saturday night! The bands are amazing usually have 5 to 6 musicians. In the band.

Just your regular local hole in the wall kinda bar. Google said restaurant. It's more of a locals bar. Felt a little like we were not wanted or server did not really want to wait on us. He was nice and pleasent but very cold attitude. If your visiting and just want a beer it's a good go to place but definitely not for families.

Great wings, limited sauce selection but that is ok. Be careful asking for honey hot though. One of their regular pre confederation discovered that mixing honey garlic and hot sauce is delicious. His name was Fred. Therefore don’t ask for honey hot, ask for Fred. You will be corrected if you ask for honey hot. Ye be warned!! Fantastic bang for bucks as well

The bands add Doolittle's are excellent and make for an excellent party atmosphere Steve and I love playing pool, play with some of the machines enjoy meeting other individuals at the bar. If you're looking for a Saturday night a fun go to Doolittle's and enjoy the atmosphere. Steve and Lynn

Great food, and pleasant atmosphere. In the afternoon it's quieter, and it's spacious enough that you don't feel crowded. The food is amazing, I've never had a bad meal here, quite the opposite! Have brought friends here and they've been extremely happy with prices and quality of meals, as well as awesome service! Post-pandemic things are quieter in the evening, but the food remains excellent! I'm never disappointed here. Great variety of meals, desserts, and always great value for your money. The staff is wonderful, as well. While many other places have reduced their menus, Doolittle's remains diverse and varied, and continues to offer excellent value and great prices for wonderful meals.
