Guestbook & Reviews

Customer Reviews

I arrived on a Saturday right at 4pm when they open. I was the only one in the restaurant at that time but was told that it gets a lot busier later in the evening. I was also told that there would be live music around 8pm. As I wanted a relatively quiet meal while I was working on my laptop, I thought 4pm was the perfect time for me. The staff is unbelievably friendly and helpful. The bartender came out a couple of times to check on me. A woman that worked there also stopped by to make sure I was happy with everything. After I got my food, the cook came out and asked me if the food was to my liking. They truly cared that I was completely happy. I ordered the flatiron steak which was fantastic. With it came steamed broccoli and mashed red potatoes. It comes with a starter of salad or soup and I got the sausage soup which was also very good. Not too noisy but I was there at 4pm so it was early; but they do play 70's / 80's music for the most part. Definitely targeting the older crowd. There is also a pool table, darts and plenty of arcade video games. Lots of spaces in the aisles and between tables so definitely ADA friendly for those with wheelchairs or walkers. Overall, I loved this place and plan to return frequently!

Every time we have gone to the Double Barrel the food and service was outstanding! The burgers are delicious, chicken strippers leave you wanting more! Also they have an under 21 section which includes a full size pool table and video games and more. This is a family establishment with something for everyone. Try it you won't be disappointed!

This place was awesome. We stopped in and grabbed a couple of Chicago dogs and beer battered fries and they tasted awesome. The beer was cold, the soda was fresh, and the staff was cool, chill, and fun. The bar is spread out too which creates an environment for any vibe. Can't wait to come back.

First off, they are locally owned and thus far have regular/dependable hours of operation. It is a restaurant & bar but appears to be very family friendly. I even saw a post about a children's karaoke time slot. While this place offers many different "zones " of seating types and atmospheres, it still retains its sense of openness. There is also an entirely separate dining area. The only thing I would suggest at this point would be lowered lighting in the bar area after a certain hour which could also serve as notice for children to leave the combined bar/restaurant section while leaving the lights up in the restaurant only section. Out back there is a small enclosed/fenced outdoor (smoker friendly of course) seating area around a cozy firepit which is perched at just the right height to keep your legs warm as well. We were nicely greeted upon arrival and all staff were friendly. We decided to take seats up at the bar. I'm always appreciative when I find that there are purse hooks available underneath! The decor is cowboy/country style without being cutesy or trying too hard. The music at the time we were there was 80's and 90's and at a level where you could hear it to enjoy it but not so loud you felt you had to raise your voice to have a conversation. Nicely done on speaker placement and/or quality! They offer 3 big screen tvs for sports/shows, digital jukebox, 2 electronic dart boards, a couple arcade games, and 2 pool tables (.75). On certain nights they have karaoke and music/dancing. They have a handful of beers on tap with enough variety for differing tastes, bottled/canned selections, and hard liquor also. Everything is homemade except for the chicken strips. I don't even know where to begin about the food other than WOW! It is quite a bit pricey for our regular meals out but SO WORTH IT! Based off of this 1st visit, I dare says rivals...nay surpasses, the long standing well known steak house in Sandpoint. All the food was cooked to perfection, tasted fantastic, and provided a portion to satisfy even the hungriest. We were also surprised by the quality, durability, and thought that went into the service wear such as napkins/cutlery/plates/glassware. While not overly fancy by any means, I appreciated its simplistic hardiness. We began our gastronomic experience by sharing a cup of corn chowder soup. It wasn't overly thickened and was absolutely delightful as it boasted little hints of peppers and whole kernels of corn. I had the ranch bbq chicken quesadilla special. This is truly deceiving and was definitely a meal in itself or would be perfect to split between 2 more friends for a hearty app. It was grilled to a buttery crunchy perfection on the outside and stuffed with melty cheese goodness and moist chicken chunks dabbled lightly with bbq sauce on the inside. The accompanying sliced jalapenos were amazingly fresh. My love had the fillet mignon special smothered in a shrimp portabello mushroom gorganzola sauce with a side of mashed potatoes and veggies for companions. It was cooked to perfection at medium rare with melt in your mouth tenderness. The butterflied shrimp were perfectly cooked as well. The potatoes were creamy, buttery, and hearty without being an over whippedd glutinous mess. Lastly the veggies, o.m.g...so fresh tasting and steamed just right retaining their slight crunch. As you can see in the photo, the side salad was equally impressive and not boring with a nice mix of greens, cherry tomatoes (that didn't taste of fishy hydroponicu. Let me tell you, it's not for small mouths. LOL The presentation was again very eye catching. Don't miss out!
