  I have ambivalent feelings about our visit, so I will break it down by subject.
  
  Style:
  They are in a building that used to be a repair shop. Their use of this building is creative and gives the place a great vibe. The bar area is cozy and nestled inside the station. The outdoor area around back had quite a bit of seating and fire pits (they weren't on when we were there)
  
  Food:
  The barbecue was delicious. Our group got a variety of things, and we liked them all. The peach cobbler was delicious! I understand that the food cart next door is also good in case you don't like BBQ. You can get food there and come next door for drinks.
  
  Service:
  The service was bad. Really bad. There was two lines in the backside of the station facing the patio area. There were apparently two lines, one for food one for drink. They aren't marked at all, and when I walked up it was one line of confused people. The two gentleman took a long time to take an order and have you pay. They may have been understaffed for how busy they were, but they didn't give off the vibe that they were trying very hard. The split lines seems to be a big point on contention for them. The food guy disappeared for a while. My friend told the drinks guy he wanted to order food and the staff rudely retorted that he only does drinks. My friend told him he just wanted to see if the drinks guy would find the food guy since he had been standing at the window for around 5 minutes without any help. Drinks took forever. We ended up eating in waves because some of the food took so long.
  
  Smell:
  The patio is backed up to the park only a few feet from the park bathroom. The smell of poo wafted from the bathroom continuously. We ended up leaving to get drinks elsewhere as soon as we were done eating because we could not stand the smell.
  
  I probably will not go back again. The service and poo smell were the biggest problems. Good food can't make up for either thing.

  Food is great, but have to figure out when to go to get the food you want. Availability of food is very hit or miss. When they have food it is awesome. But 3 times out of 5 they don't have stuff and that is annoying.
