You can order from a kiosk, the QR code at your table or Allison can help you. I had a bacon cheeseburger and my guys had burgers with seasoned fries. The food arrived very quickly and was cooked to perfection. Be warned: the seasoned fries are VERY seasoned fries. I snuck a few of my hubby's to taste but I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to eat an entire order of my own. I wish I had room for a shake because they looked incredible. Maybe next time!

The food here was outstanding although I thought the portions were on the smaller side for the price, the old adage "quality and quantity doesn't come in the same package" applies here in my opinion but I'd definitely return when I'm back in the area. The fries were outstanding and fresh cut to order and the chicken tenders were some of the best take-out or dine in I've experienced in a very long time. The drive through was a continuous flow that wrapped the building during our visit and the inside was just as busy but the staff demonstrated great skill in getting the food out in a reasonable time with a friendly smile and a thank you for coming in. If you like great chicken you'll love this place...

But I wiggled my vehicle into a tight spot and went in for a burger and a beer. I believe there were about 10 to 12 options available on tap, and I went with what was listed as an Irish stout from somewhere in the Northeast. It wasn't bad, though it seemed more like an imperial stout. My sandwich choice was the Cowboy, with ground elk at its core. It was a good choice too, and the accompanying fried onions and melted cheese complemented the meat well. I ordered the burger medium, but I think I'd go for medium rare if I could go back in time. The medium option wasn't bad, but I think a little less heat and a little more moisture would only make things better. I kept things simple with the side item, going for the fries which were of the thinly sliced McDonald's variety, not bad but nothing remarkable. The server covering my table was pleasant and prompt, though soft spoken so I occasionally had to ask her to repeat herself amidst the music and noise. I wouldn't call any of these selections a bargain, but the prices didn't veer too far from what you'll find in many burger joints. All in all, not an earthshaking experience, but a place I'd be willing to go back to. 3.5 stars.

I have no notes, this was a classic burger: I loved the hint of spice from pepperjack, the sweet contrast from the pineapple, and the patty was perfectly cooked. The pub chips were well-seasoned and crispy. The iced tea had just the right amount of sugar, and was very refreshing. The ambiance is fine: a bit dim inside, but there's also outside seating. Service was friendly & fast. Parking is free in downtown Jefferson. 10/10 would recommend!

I had the all you can eat fish and chips. Couldn't finish the first serving. Fish was battered and fried perfectly. They even had malt vinegar. Fries were waffle type and done right. Slaw was excellent, they make their own dressing. Shout out to Wilma for that. Best hush puppies I've had in a restaurant in a long while. Even the tea was tasty. Wife had the fried shrimp. Better than any thing we've gotten down in Myrtle Beach. Highly recommend but don't let the dining area throw you off.

I had the Peach Ginger sangria which is now my all time favorite sangria, and our group started with the fried crispy okra-the best possible recipe for okra. Three out of 4 of us ordered the fried chicken-one with mashed potatoes, one with cheese grits(oh yes!) and the last with house made rosemary potato chips. The chicken is boneless and fried crispy but not at all greasy. The coating is perfection and the breast meat is moist and delicious. The last entree was a stuffed 1/2 eggplant with a mushroom &leek risotto that was sitting on a bed of smoky babaganush. The tastes all worked wonderfully together. You need to come here and dine indoors or on a beautiful late summer evening outside. Excellent service by a well informed server helped make this an evening to remember.
