  Atmosphere is really cool, the beer is wonderful (I love Picaroons, and the cocktail ales!). However my partner and I ordered a snack board for $16. The menu said that it would have pretzel bread, mustard, pickles, cheese, cured meat etc. We thought wow for $16 it'll be big enough to almost fill us. It came on a tiny wooden board and contained no pickles or cheese. There were about 5 pieces of prosciutto & salami combined, a hard boiled egg, 3 pickled onions, 4 pieces of arugula, some pickled ginger, 4 tiny slices of hard crusty melba toast type things, and a small "swipe" of mustard, hard to dip anything into. I waited till our server walked by and asked if maybe we got the wrong order, as it was quite small and missing some key ingredients. The waitress said "no that's right" and started to walk away but I kept talking and said "It's missing cheese and pickles.." The waitress tried to say that the 3 tiny pickled onions counted as pickles... She did acknowledge that there was no cheese on the board. She took it back to the kitchen. It came back with a few more slices of melba toast things and 4 slices of brie. My fiance and I were planning on staying for more beers and food but decided to end it there because we wondered if the portions on everything else would be just as disappointing. Our bill was $40 and I have definitely gotten more food elsewhere for that price. The server also seemed she was annoyed that we even called her over. Disappointing, I probably won't go back. Which sucks because I love Picaroons especially when it's on tap! Oh well. Now to buy more food because I'm not even close to full!
