Up North features a sports bar vibe but with more family seating in a mild industrial look. Plenty of tvs. The menu is pretty diverse with a decent on tap list and cocktail specialties. The wings are really well prepared and reasonably priced. We had a burger, fries and a nice loaded baked potato as well. Our server was pleasant and pretty prompt. I did wonder if they were low on blue cheese on this day. as there was very little on my wedge salad and I was given ranch twice instead of blue cheese with my wings. Otherwise we enjoyed everything on site and as leftovers later.

Sunday lunchtime, empty. Took 30 min for food. Extra charge to have ranch or blue cheese with a full wing order. Keep giving this place a second chance but Bottoms up is far superior. Server was great, bartender was outside doing something so drinks took forever.

i went at 2PM the place was empty, but we were treated to great service!! Great food, best naked wings!! (harder than u think)
the assistant manager went over and closed the windows before the lawn care blew a huge plume of dust..
she was cordial and made everyone feel like you were the most important person!!

It's been a few years since we last visited, and overall, it was okay. They have a decent beer selection, but I expected a bit more variety for a place called an Ale House. I ordered the salmon, but the portion was very small and overcooked. My wife, on the other hand, got the chicken picante, which was a large portion and tasted great. The music was pretty loud, and our server had trouble hearing and taking our order.

Great Atmosphere and Service at Up North Ale House
I visited Up North Ale House while on a business trip with a large party of 14. The restaurant accommodated us well, placing us in a separate room, which made for a comfortable dining experience despite the trivia night crowd. The atmosphere was casual and lively.
The service was fantastic—attentive and friendly. We ordered several appetizers, including Calamari, Seared Tuna, Brussels Sprouts, Buffalo Cauliflower, and Mozzarella Sticks, and they were all fantastic. I personally ordered the Chicken Piccata, which was well-presented and tasted great.
While some in our party had mixed feelings about their meals, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and would happily return to Up North Ale House. It’s a solid choice for good food and a fun, laid-back atmosphere.
