I'm very excited to have this place pop up. Excellent craft beer selection, outdoor games, super dog friendly, large beautiful outdoor area, lots of sports TVs, a couple delicious food trucks parked inside the gate. This place has the potential to push Balcones for my favorite spot in Waco. We visited on a cold Monday night for a dog training class. They were very friendly and accommodating to our 10 or so dogs. Can't wait to come back.

I went on a slow, cold Sunday night - but still had a great time! The owner & staff were super personable and kept me laughing for hours. They have a diverse beer selection including many local beers. Can't wait to go back on a warmer night to enjoy the yard!

Went here with my boyfriend. We wanted to go on a nice little date night but I had no idea where to go so I was like let's go to freight bar. We were just at pretty fancy. I was in a really nice fancy old-timey red dress and my boyfriend was dressed up and a button-up and a tie and freight bar is not a place. You would think to go in that attire but we still went anyway. I was a little bit bummed because they weren't doing any activities the day we went but then we started playing cool which was really fun. Even though I'm not very good at pool I still won because my boyfriend kept getting the eight ball in (silly goose) then they had a soccer version of pool which was very difficult and we didn't like it that much. We just played soccer within the giant soccer pool table. It was actually one of the best dates nights I've had with him and the drinks were really good. I got two Shirley temples (non-alcoholic) and my boyfriend got water. I would recommend this place for families. Looking to have a good night. They also do cracks here sometimes which is always super fun.

Interesting venue! We came on a cold, rainy Saturday afternoon - it’s probably more enjoyable in warmer weather. It’s a younger crowd of college kids. Quick and friendly service. Good selection of beers on tap. Try the peanut butter tequila shot - it’s surprisingly tasty!

Excited to have discovered this place. Love the bar ambience and loads of things to keep you entertained in the out door space. Super pet friendly. There is an off lease park as well. Wide range of beers, ciders and seltzers. My personal favs were pineapple paradise (cider), mango cart (fruit beer), pre war pils, frozen ranch water and a gin drink. The menu has delicious appes. The bartender are amazing.
