🎣 What’s Mercedes’ favorite thing on the menu?

The Prime Rib Sandwich on Texas Toast, then she likes to spice things up with pepper jack + jalapeños. 🔥

Honestly… we can’t argue with that. Wash it down with one of our 250+ b**rs on tap and you've got a perfect combo!

Come on in and give it a try!!

Clocking out soon? The week is halfway over, and that calls for a little refreshment at the end of a long work day!

We asked Elisa what her go-to post-work drink is. She couldnt pick just one to share but decided on Jefferson County C***rworks Original Apple C***r! 🍏

Crisp, light, and refreshing, the perfect way to unwind and kick back at El Bait Shop.
