I would give this place a 10* if I could! My dear friend, Lake Rogers worked at this restaurant for serval years. She passed away last week. Her funeral was yesterday and we decided to meet our friends to celebrate her life! It was very crowded. More people than the restaurant expected. One of the people that works there (she wasn't working that day) came up to us and took our drink and food order. She said they only had 2 people on the floor and bar so she stepped in and helped. I'm sure they were blown away with all of us being there. The staff (managers, kitchen staff and servers) were amazing at getting things together! Service was great and my food was excellent! Get the patty melt! It was delicious! These folks are good people getting things done! Kiddos to y'all! Thanks for the great experience! read more

They are racist. They are not attentive. They wait on you last and great you last. Not good customer service.

Your food is good. Your weight staff is right spot on. I think you're doing a good job. Thank you so much for all you do.

Big fan of this local dive bar with pretty good food. I first noticed this place when there was a news story a few months back about a patron who drive through the wall and then tried to shoot people. No shootings or truck accidents during our visits so far but we are always hopeful. This is a bar first and a restaurant second, but the menu is fairly large and they offer the usual mix of bar/pub choices: burgers, wings, nachos, cheesesteaks. The ranch burger is a favorite and comes with a fried green tomato on it. Noise level is high. Cement floors and it smells like a bar. I wouldn't bring small children or plan a family event here. The restroom is what you would expect at a dive bar. This place will never make 5 stars, but a solid 4 and when you need a dive bar this is a great choice. read more

278 S. is a go to place for lunch specials. My wife and I are both retired. We love the French onion soup and my wife is addicted to the chicken tenders. The Philly cheesesteak is great. The waitstaff is great. They have good old-fashioned crinkle cut french fries that are outstanding. Once in a while, I will go there with the Wife for lunch and I will have my once a month Jack Daniel and Diet Coke. read more

Rubens are fantastic , the shreded roast beef atop mashed potatoes and brown gravy is amazing!

The best wings and soft pretzels around!!!!! Their brunch menu is awesome too! Love their steak nights and wing nights! I also love that they have monthly specials! read more

Good bar food - especially the burgers. Great service! Great place to meet friends. We attended a birthday party there and they never missed a beat. read more

I met some coworkers here for a drink and dinner. It was a big group, but it probably took me 20-30 minutes to catch the servers attention to order a drink. By the time I got there, some of my coworkers had already eaten one had the patty melt and said it was mediocre, another had wings and said they were just OK, another had ranch with his wings and stated he couldn't tell if it was ranch or blue cheese. This left me struggling to figure out what to eat. I got chicken tenders, tossed in buffalo with ranch. They were totally fine. Actually, better than just fine - I could tell it was really chicken and the ranch tasted like ranch to me. The inside does smell like 2 things - smoke and grease. If you dyed hair, you should definitely plan on taking a shower when you get home. My clothes smelled pretty bad and went directly into the washer. But the inside is definitely an improvement from when this was the Phoenix! Wait staff was kind of slow. I waited to order my first drink, I waited over 30 minutes to get my check. it was all fine because it was a group and a social setting, but I really was ready to get my check by the time. It finally came out. I will say our staff was very friendly, even though the service was very slow. I'm rating it three stars because it was fine. It is definitely not a fancy place so don't go here if you were looking for that, but if you are looking for a bar, and bar food, this might be the spot for you. read more

Enjoyed our first visit to 278. Was confused by the drink prices but then it's 2022 and everything pricing is Wickie wack. The wedge salad was awesome but I'd recommend pulling the bitter center before serving. The lettuce was ample enough without that part. Lovely bacon on both salad and garnished on my Bloody Mary. Wednesday's are half priced smashburgers and hubby loved them. The side is included so that's an awesome inexpensive date night (except I rather a green salad lol). It was live acoustic music and the gentleman singing did a fantastic job of mixing up the songs to fit his voice and he has a great range. The bloody Mary's were yummy but I like a garnish with a salty taste to add so either pickled Okra or a green olive makes me happy. Fried pickles for appetizer was a good visit back to our old favorite starter. All in all an under $50 date night keeps the banker happy. We will visit again! read more

Our group waited almost 2 hours for food to begin to be delivered our table. Then food arrived randomly for the next 30+ minutes. The food itself was fine but no one should wait 2 hours for their food. We have enjoyed 278 South in the past, but this is not the first time that the kitchen just could NOT deliver. No one seems to be in charge from a managerial perspective. We are going to rethink our next visit to this restaurant. read more

I'm from out of state and like always when I travel, I've got to find at least one local bar to check out. The food was delicious, the live music was awesome. Idk if I'll ever be back in this area, but if I am I'll definitely make this a stop. Our server was very sweet. read more

It is what it is. Burgers. Beer. Bikers. We, a good friend, went for the south burger. Described as a smashed patty with all the regular fixings. I was expecting five guys/steak n shake esq. type burgers. They were more free hand form patties. Like you would make at home. They took on a charcoal biscuit shape. Waitress did ask if we wanted it cooked or pink. I guess I forgot to say pink, because our burgers both came out well done. Decent. Fresh and tasty. Opted for tater tots and coleslaw. They were both OK. Nothing to crave. The state was our appetizer. Fried spicy rock shrimp with a honey drizzle. A must get. I'll try their poo-boy next time. There is a wonderful amount of beer and cocktails on draft. Tried 3 and enjoyed the mango/straw/vodka the most. The place is set up for a night life party. Full band stage. Lots of seating. Go. Eat. Support local. Shout out to the ex-professional cheerleader waitress/bartender. You handled a rush and your bar patrons with the ease and grace. read more

We had the smash burgers, they were good. Although I was ready for a nap soon after! Service was good as well

The food was good. Service was great and the atmosphere was awesome. We really enjoyed the live band. Employees were all very nice and welcoming read more

I'm currently writing this review while I've been sitting here waiting on not just my food but my APPETIZER also for over an hour and a half. This is absolutely ridiculous I'm to the point where I'm so hungry that I'm not even hungry anymore. Don't waste your time or money here. read more

Food wasn't bad but took 50 minutes to get my plate and then my partner got his around 10 min later. We had to wait an additional 10 min or so for a side of frys that we ordered. Bathroom was pretty dirty and the server was nowhere to be seen almost the whole time. I was excited to try this place but was ultimately let down by the poor service and long wait times. read more

Once again a really good experience. Had a Smash Mouth burger and the mashed potato poppers on the side. Wednesday evening. Not too busy but full. Clean atmosphere. Friendly people. Live music. Perfectly cooked burger to order and the mashed potato poppers can be a meal of their own. read more

highly recommend Lauren , as your waitress. quick service GREAT personality 10-10 will go back again !

I would have liked to rate the food but I never made it that far. Walked in sat at the bar ordered a beer and asked for a menu never spoke to a server/bartender again. I had to yell/wave down a server to pay for my beer. Went next door to The Station and had my beer AND food in 10 minutes. Both places had about the same amount of patrons. It was nice inside but very sterile, it had no personality. Good Luck! read more

Cell service here is pretty much dead. That really sucks when you dine by yourself most of the time. I have yet to explore most of the menu, but they have excellent burgers. The fries are adequate. Sometimes they're on point and other times they are undercooked, yuck. The service is friendly and at a moderate speed. Most of the time there is plenty of room. The place is clean, but dingy. read more

It has live entertainment, great food, drinks, great service except don't go there between 7 and 9 pm Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. The kitchen is always closed. I guess they shut down the kitchen when everyone is traveling home from work and can't get anything to eat there between those times. My wife and I came in there several times after 8 pm when she would get off Monday's, Tuesdays and Wednesdays and the kitchen was closed and we left. But management always says it should be open till at least 9 pm weekdays but it's not. read more

Great Food ! Even better service! Always clean , good selection for all meals ..... Good prices too!

A month ago I would have given a much higher review. But after our last Thursday night (which was a weekly visit with friends because it was FORMERLY .50 wing night). Now its 16.99 all you can eat wing night! BUT HERES THE CATCH! (BUT WAIT THERES MORE) you can only order 10 wings and you have to be mostly done with those before you can then only order 5 wings more at a time. Hahaha well, the waitress Sarah (who was one of their better waitresses), knew your drink order before you asked, made sure you always had drinks and was very attentive, is now a food runner and the service has became shameful. Getting anything was like pulling teeth on a crocodile. And I am not just basing this review on my Thursday nights, no I've gone for brunches, date nights with my husband. The last several times we have been it has just gotten awful! We loved this place. This place is going to lose so much money taking away wing night, i know we are not the only upset customers! And not only that my husband's company has had some gatherings here, but that is not happening anymore. Best of luck to the owners and all that remain here, but you have lost my business and alot of money. Unfortunate because i loved the drinks and wings read more

Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday in search of a good patty melt. We were greeted by a friendly waitress who let us know we could sit anywhere and then came over and told us the special of the day. We asked what menu items she preferred and she gave us two or three of her faves. She admitted to not trying the patty melt but pointed over to a regular patron and explained he orders it every time and loves it. It comes with a tomato aoili spread and when I said I prefer thousand island she happily substituted. The patty melt was cooked perfect, came with ample cheese/grilled onions and was served on toasted and then grilled marble rye. Fantastic. Side of fries were lightly seasoned and crisp, just like we like the. We also ordered pepper Jack cheese balls which were cooked perfectly. The restaurant was clean with indoor and outdoor seating. Restrooms were clean. Thought it was odd there wasn't an entry door but that won't deter me from coming back. read more

This place should be condemned, it is loud and nasty and I was afraid to even use the restroom for fear of catching a disease the staff was rude and service is so slow it was over an hour to get our food. In town on business and this place was closest to our hotel,, WON'T BE BACK! read more

I mean this place is super chill, don't get me wrong. The food however, not chill. I ordered the 278 South Dip Appetizer and I mean it was good, but it comes with shrimp and chicken and there were only two small shrimp in the bowl. I also ordered the chicken salad croissant and the bread had WAY TOO MUCH GARLIC ON IT. You couldn't even taste the chicken salad itself. The brownie a la mode however was DELICIOUS AF!! So gooey and thick. read more

I had been seeing some chatter about 278 South and several posts about how good their food was. My wife and I decided on Saturday to order food to go. Our waitress, Meghan, was helpful in pointing out her favorites. I chose the country fried steak and my wife got the appetizer sampler. After quite some time, Meghan offered me a free drink as my order had already taken 30 minutes. In total, it took about 49 minutes for our food to be ready. The food was frustrating. When I got home, I discovered that my country fried steak was dry and didn't have brown gravy as I had requested. Who wants two dry pieces of country fried steak? I called up there and spoke to someone and recited my order to her. She told me that the reason that I didn't get brown gravy was because they were out of it. Nobody had told me that. Had someone told me, I would have taken White gravy. After she spoke to the manager, they offered half off another meal. I ended up feeding the food to my dogs as it was dry. read more

This local bar is a breath of fresh air!! Enjoyed the evening with friends to support Hunter Flanaghan this past Wednesday. Brittany was our server and everyone was very pleased at the attention to detail she gave each one of us. The food was delicious...we had the usual mid-week night out menu...wings, fried pickles, fries & beer......speaking of beer. If you are a fan of Black & Tan's, look no further!!!! Its hard finding a place that has a well made Black & Tan and I found ...the BEST in Hiram!!! Ww will be back soon...and that's a promise!! read more

Food wasn't that great. The waitress was attentive but seemed to be overwhelmed and understaffed. The bartender was terrible. I was missing half of my bloody, when the waitress brought it. Zero garnish like I wouldn't notice. Kinda sad because a friend recommended the place because of the bloody Mary's, but it was an overall disappointment. read more
