Description

By all appearances-gravel lot, double-wide exterior, dingy interior-this place should be a backwoods Georgia biker bar where you're liable to get your ass kicked just for shaving that morning. In reality, it's a friendly neighborhood bar on the edge of Ballard with stiff drinks, and down-home supper items. The beer selection is diverse and cheap, the burgers and barbecue are tasty and satisfying, and with a front beer garden, there's more than enough space for large parties to congregate - which they do, for the lively karaoke nights, the "Trivia with Geeks who Drink," or jamming out Rock Band-style on the bar's Xbox. All activities are best accompanied by the Waterwheel's drink specialty, the 3-liter Beer Tower.
