The food is elevated party fare with sliders, wings, and nachos on the menu. Butch McGuire’s is a high-energy bar with trivia nights, and other themed party events.

Long on going relationships are the reason I love this job so much. Being able to see someone's face light up as I hand them the keys to their very first house is what gets me up in the morning.
