Food Scene

Kelly's Bar is a small family owned tavern. My favorite and my whole family's favorite item is the fried shrimp dinner with cheese tots. The rest of the menu (burgers, chicken wings, etc) are delicious as well. If you want to order take-out, make sure to call in your order pretty early, its all family that works the whole bar and restaurant and they are so good, so they get busy!
