We loved sitting outdoors with our dog. It was a little cool but they lit the patio heaters for us. Two story indoor seats also. MANY local beer choices.

The Patriarch is a super chill bar for people who don’t like going out. The drinks are great and the bartenders are all attentive but not pushy. For introverts who would rather be home, this is the perfect place to be able to get together with friends or have a night out.

Every Wednesday starting around 7:00 pm several people and I have a bluegrass jam session. The service is out of this world. It's is a bar so anyone below 21 are not allowed. No food, however there is a food truck there most of the time with great burgers and snacks.

Food truck - haven’t tried so I can’t rank the food. We live in Louisiana and are up in Oklahoma several times a year, this is our go to place. Great place, and great people to have a beer and relax. Pet friendly - but no children as it is considered a bar.

Maybe the coolest bar "house" in Edmond We try to go every time Philipino Phusin is there . Soo many beers and Thursdays is pint night free beer glass.

Great place to kick back in the yard, watch live music, and enjoy beer. They have 48 different beers and they get changed out regularly so there's always something new to try. On some nights, they have food trucks there so you can grab a bite to eat. The business is in a beautiful old home so the inside is very cozy.
