"A little older crowd with their click at the main table but everyone was really friendly. There are a few especially funny regulars. Is a member specific place so for most events must be a guest, though also have events open to the public such as Bingo, a Christmas Eve event. Pool table, cards and darts down stairs. I believe you can rent out the upstairs banquet room for special events."
