alright went to the iron horse sports bar today.
comparing this with blackened brew is probably unfair because they have nothing in common except that they are both well done inside
iron horse is much more spacious, lots of tvs and a giant sports ticker across the space. Big bar but not much behind it, the beer selection is poor. Mostly domestic bottles and just a half dozen taps. The beer menu at BB is light years better.
the food however is a slam dunk. Typical sports bar fare but excellent. We had a duck quesadilla with mango salsa, dozen wings and a Cuban sandwich. The wings were very good, right in my wheelhouse (naked, not smothered in sauce). 9/10 on the wings. Sandwich was really good, quesadilla was tasty. Again, Sysco fries
[fries rant] it's not much harder to do fresh cut fries. cut, rinse, dry, blanch. When ordered, drop it in hot oil. Yes it's more trouble than a frozen bag but the results are 10x better and you can charge more [end fry rant]
Bill was 75 bucks compared to 100 at BB ( generous tip both times). I had 3x 22oz goose island and the lady had 2 12oz Abitas.
we ate the bar both places, service was excellent both places however the owner at iron horse came over and hung with us for a while which was cool. The owner at BB was sitting right next to us the whole time, never said a word.
if nothing changes with the menu at either place, go to blackened brew to drink and iron horse to eat. If iron horse steps up the beer selection, game over
