    Imperial stout
    Melissa T.

    Great friendly service. Chicken sandwich was good. So were the fries. Lots of dipping sauces and heat levels to choose from. My stout tasted great. Wasn't crazy about the Mac bowl.

    Grilled chicken sandwich hot with just lettuce

    Holee Hot Chicken was this good. I got the grilled chicken sandwich (hot) with just lettuce and a side of coleslaw and Memphis Bbq sauce as I wanted to combine it in to my own creation. First, I like spice but am on the "I don't claim to be able to handle to heat" so the Hot was right for me enough heat to make me question my choices but not enough to not love it. The grilled chicken was also cooked perfectly: juicy, tender and plentiful. Coleslaw was beyond. Absolute perfection if you love a creamy coleslaw and I do. Flavorful, refreshing and just outstanding. Absolutely fabulous.

    I was in the area and was hungry for HOT chicken! I ordered one of Baba's plates - sandwich + tender and 2 sides. After ordering my food, I then realized they had beer on tap!! I guess that's what "and brews" meant. There was some trepidation on my part since I'm not one to put pickles or slaw on my sandwich. The hot original was a lil' messy - but I loved it - all of it. I got collard greens and the potato salad for my sides and they both provided just the right contrast. The single tender was perfectly cooked and yummy. They brought my food to me at one of the outside tables - smooth. For beers, I tried the ale and the lager - both were very good. I will definitely come back for the hot chicken, sides and cold beer.

    Is it babas or babs? Is still a discussion amongst my friends but this place has good hot chicken. The insanity has a kick to it and when you order it, they do confirm that this is the spicy level you want. If you're a spicy food lover like me, I highly recommend! The service is pretty fast here so it's a good place to grab a quick lunch. There is an ample parking space so don't need to worry about parking. They also offer beer which will go perfect with your chicken!

    This is the BEST fried chicken around this area! Our order included 10 huge chicken breasts (fried to perfection), collard greens, macaroni salad and corn bread. Every item in our order (including the dipping sauces) was delicious. I highly recommend Baba's!

    Trio plate with an original chicken sandwich, potato salad, and collard greens.

    This place surprised me. 1) Most hot chicken places don't deliver on the "hot." I ordered the trio plate and the wingding/tender were not that hot. It seems like they didn't apply it well enough, because the chicken sandwich had my mouth on FIRE. One of the hottest food experiences, and I like hot food. I probably will get the Insanity and not their hottest (Permanent Insanity) though, next time. It was intense, lol. 2) Most hot chicken places only serve fries, and a salad if you're lucky. The potato salad and greens were very tasty. I wasn't expecting much from the potato salad because it's light, and I like mustard in mine. But it had everything else. And tbe greens were surprisingly good. Plenty salt going on, I'm sure, so I couldn't eat this everything day. But I'll definitely be back for that heat. Glad they are in the area. I forgot: I did had the banana pudding, and wasn't a big fan. Tasted artificial: needed real banana and maybe some cream cheese, or just cream for that matter. I'll try the peach cobbler next time, but the rest of the meal was too good to knock off a star.

    I've been there twice the the last 3 days and had 2 completely different experiences. If i could rate a 3.5 stars I would so I'm going with a 3. Thursday 1/29/24 ordered lunch for work: Southern Bbq chicken (permanent insanity heat): *VERY SPICY!!* I have to give kudos to whoever made this hot.. it's actually spicy and packs a hell of a punch! Enjoyed the spice level. However, if you're going to call this a barbecue sandwich, it needs more barbecue sauce than just the quarter size dollop in the middle.. tasted zero bbq Chicken tender- very good. Fries: right amount of crispness. Mac & Cheese: very similar to Wawa's. Just ok. Peach cobbler: I enjoyed this. My coworkers tried the custard and banana pudding: both enjoyed their desserts. Fast forward to today 2/1/24 ordered dinner for the family: Collard Greens: Good seasoning. Enjoyable Macaroni salad: I have no idea what kind of macaroni salad this was but it's was more like a pasta salad- with cheese and tomatoes . Didn't have much creaminess and was very dry. Not a fan of this. Coleslaw: loved it on the sandwich, didn't like it by itself. Fries: this time were soggy. Disappointing Chicken wings: LET'S TALK ABOUT THESE WINGS. This was my first experience of the "no heat" option for spice. I didn't realize that this also meant ZERO flavor. The coating just tasted like crispy fried flour. My mom and husband both tried the wings and nobody liked them- there was just something off putting. The skin underneath was thick and gummy which was causing the coating to fall off. Even tried putting them in the air fryer and it didn't help. We threw these outside for the animals to eat. Very disappointed as we paid $20 for 4 wings and 2 sides and didn't like any of them. Final thoughts: I enjoyed the chicken sandwich's and tenders. Fries are a hit of miss. Not a huge fan of any of the sides I've tried. Give their sandwich's and tenders a shot!! Definitely worth a try. If you love spicy chicken, then there is on point!!!

When I ordered it, I asked the staff to wrap the crap out of it in foil as I was sticking it in luggage (which they so lovingly did) and flying back home with it. So I actually waited to try it until it endured 8 hours of travel squashed in my backpack. I then reheated it in my toaster oven and had low expectations considering everything this day old sandwich had been through, and it turned out to be one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. If I'm ever back in the area, I will definelty be trying this sandwich fresh to see if it could possibly be any better.

While most of the patrons here stop by to watch a game while enjoying a glass of beer, and the interior is quite small. However, it's a nice local spot to visit and you can call in to get take-out or order online via DoorDash or Uber eats. Of note, if you dine on or call to order, they are a cash-only on Mondays and Tuesdays. There is a small parking lot next to the bar, so you don't have to go around the neighborhood looking for parking. I haven't stayed around to dine in, but it has a very traditional dive bar vibe. So if you're looking for something simple, this seems like a good place for that.

I've really enjoyed Bar Jeopardy on Wednesday nights. It does get busy, but the servers are great - we've often been served by Stephanie, who has a keen memory of what each of us likes. It's nice to come to a place where you can tell the server "the usual" and they know what to do! Great variety of wings flavors, and other appetizers are tasty as well. Admittedly, I've only had appetizers and wings there, and beer sometimes, but it's all good quality. Whether bone-in or boneless, I'm always a fan of their wings. I would describe this place as kind of a dive, perhaps - TVs all over, couple of bars, usually populated by regulars and locals. It's reasonably clean, but not quite fine dining, but that's part of the charm here. I'll probably continue to be there for wings, perhaps other things at some point too!

I was forced to leave by mess right there. I don't see any other trash cans around. The bar looks nice lots of big TVs bathroom was big and fairly clean but man that food was bad really really bad.

It's lunch and dinner with a pretty small menu but the options are all delicious sounding! They also have specials as well. It was nice to see the same chef and some of the same staff when we went. There's only a handful of tables maybe 10 or so and then there is a counter at the windows. They had a nice mural as well as a nice neon sign. The whole design is clean and simple. It's one of the establishments inside "The Vault Town Center" which is a repurposed bank housing several businesses and eateries. The staff was super nice our waitress was very sweet. We went with one of their "handhelds" and one of their "steaks". The double cheese meatball parm and the boomer steak. The boomer steak was my favorite of the two because it had a really great flavor profile between the ribeye, the steakhouse onion white cheddar, mushrooms and crispy onions- great texture and taste! The meatball was also really good. Very hearty sized meatballs on a garlic bread roll with provolone and whipped ricotta. I didn't really taste much of the garlic flavor but I really enjoyed the ricotta on the sandwich. The portions were decent. I was full but not overly stuffed. Both of our sandwiches came with chips but you could upgrade to fries - which were super thin and crispy. I might upgrade next time ! Overall I'm excited for this location and to get a taste of Sammy's beyond their usual "brunch" Hours. Cannot wait to come back and to see what else they do !
