Folks ask us every day where we source our beautiful clear king cubes from so I'm gonna answer that question for all with a story.

Yesterday, our ice machine kicked the bucket. The parts to fix it could show up anytime between today and May (who knows).
In a panic, I got a bunch of lower quality ice delivered to get through service and made a call to @baralliancenash
Being the heroes that they are, they showed up bright and early this morning with 400lbs of gorgeous KD cubes to keep our cocktail standards where we like them.

If you ever need ice of any variety for yourself or a business, reach out to these fine folks and they'll get you set up in no time.

Support your local businesses so they can support you.

We're open for lunch only today.

Kristian and Matt are hanging out until 5ish so go (safely!) support them and get yourselves a Snow Dance!

We're hoping to be back to our regularly scheduled programming tomorrow but check back here for any updates.

Y'all asked for more specials and we're happy to oblige!

Breaded and fried to order, you can toss these wings in any of our homemade sauces!
Picture here is our (criminally underrated) Pineapple Sweet & Spicy sauce.

Give 'em a shot in the next couple weeks. If you dig them, we'll add it as a permanent option on future menus!

ABOUT US

O’ BE JOYFUL
DEFINITION:
plural -s
slang
:Vintage slang, from the American Civil War: intoxicating drink, a home-made brew.

O-be-joyful began reaffirming the positive properties of intoxicants about two hundred years ago, and although the word is not in considerable use today, a book from 1977 asserted that an abbreviated form of the phrase was still in common use in some areas, and that “some New Englanders even today write ‘OBJ’ on their shopping lists.” – Merriam-Webster

O’ Be Joyful is about you, your friends and family, and the belief that the gathering of individuals for the enjoyment of life makes this world a better place. Mixing old Southern values with a fresh contemporary vibe, OBJs Kitchen & Cocktails marries the perfect combination of service and flavor. Whether you desire an intimate lunch with an old friend or catching the game with the guys, OBJ will create your perfect experience.

“Once, during Prohibition, I was forced to live for days on nothing but food and water.” ~W.C. Fields
