    The Chili Verde Burrito is awesome!  Ron makes great burgers too.

    57Alpha is a awesome gem of a restaurant and well worth the trip. The Chili Verde Burrito is the best thing on the menu and is highly recommended. I have never had anything bad here. It's run by Ron McKinney and been in business for 25 years! Bring cash, he doesn't accept credit cards.

    Nice indoor or outdoor restaurant on the airport at Rutherfordton County Field.

    We came here for a nice brew and a snack after a hike in the area. Here is what I thought…read more Hillman Beer has a large free parking lot behind the building. At the brewery, you order at the bar and pick your own seat. They have an ample beer and food selection. They also have a small selection of non-alcoholic beverages. They are dog friendly. Hillman brewery has tons of seating and has a lovely outdoor patio along the creek that runs next to the brewery. I had their kombucha and my husband had their beer. We both enjoyed our drinks. We shared their 'Soft Pretzel' appetizer with mustard and it was delicious! This is such a great place to come out and hang with friends and family!

    We stopped in here after a day of hiking and shopping and a crisp, cold beverage sounded heavenly…read more These are some of the friendliest bartenders I've ever encountered. We were greeted by every single one with a smile and happy energy, despite how busy the place was. There are so many times when you sit at a bar unnoticed and patiently wait for someone to look your way, but this was the opposite of that. Our drinks were ice cold and served super fast. We didn't try any food, but they do have a small menu of bar bites that sounded really good. My cider was crisp, and not too sweet. It seemed to be "the spot", because there were lots of people but we didn't have any trouble finding seating. Lots of people had their dogs with them, which is always a plus!! Overall a really nice vibe here!

    We stopped for gas and a stretch on our drive from NC to AL. Our Firehouse Subs in Huntsville is…read morevery hit or miss so we rarely go there. For some reason, the nondescript Gaffney Firehouse called to us. We weren't sure it was open - the windows were darkened and we couldn't see anyone inside but the open sign was on so we stiffly exited the car and hobbled in. We were pleasantly greeted as we were immediately waited on. Even though there was a bit of an after-church crowd, we still got our sandwiches quickly. Hubs and I shared a large Firehouse Hero. Honey ham, turkey and roast beef warmed to not quite hot. It was huge - we really should have gotten a medium - he had to finish mine. We got the 83 pound MIL a kids meal - it was small, probably too small for anyone over 6 but she barely finished it (oh don't get me started about trying to get this 88 year old to eat). Anyway, our sandwich was very good - something I'd definitely order again. The restaurant, while not immaculate, was quite clean - a far cry from what I'm used to at home. Maybe my local Firehouse has improved - that sandwich was good enough to give my store another try.

    Specially asked for the whole sub to be toasted. It wasn't…read more Specially asked for lite mayo. Received it loaded with mayo. This is exactly why I refuse to tip before I receive my order. They did nothing I asked. Specifically did what I asked them not to do. And tips are for servers. Not punks that just show up to work they are already being paid to do. This place gets a zero! And also, when I complained all she could do was defend herself and say she put it on the order. I watched her not do anything about adding my requests to the order and the receipt didn't show anything added. This is crap and I will never eat here again. If simple instructions can't be followed what good are they?
