I chose this spot out of convenience because I wanted…read morea burger and didn't want to go to a sit-down restaurant, so it was basically between this place or McDonald's. Now, I am really wishing I had just gone to McDonald's. Charging $14 for a burger made with cheap meat is ridiculous. They clearly do not make the patties themselves; it probably came frozen. It really wasn't worth the money. I feel like this place tries to dress up their burgers with fancy buns and lots of toppings, but none of that matters if the meat is cheap. It is really bad for a burger place to skimp on its most important ingredient. To make matters worse, I don't feel good after eating there. I can't say for sure it was because of the food, but it certainly doesn't make me want to go back. As for the rest of the experience: * Service: Fine, but very basic. * Ambiance: Subpar. They don't have air conditioning, though the place seemed relatively clean. The food is simply not worth the money. It feels like they are just inflating prices because they can. I could have gotten equivalent or better quality at McDonald's for a much better price. Or, if you're going to spend $14, you are much better off going to Five Guys, In-N-Out, or any number of other places that actually offer decent value.

We were in the area looking for a brunch spot and striking out, and everyone was getting to the "we…read moreneed food NOW" stage, so we ended up at Common Stock. When we sat down, we were a little surprised that the brunch menu was pretty limited compared to the photos that originally caught our attention. I'm guessing those were from the dinner menu. Our server was actually so great about it--he told us to take our time looking it over and that if we weren't excited about anything, we were welcome to leave and he wouldn't take it personally. That honestly won us over. Even our kids were impressed by how straightforward and nice he was and decided we should stay. And I'm glad we did. The Crispy Brussels were delicious--seriously, one of the highlights. My daughter loved the Strawberry Shortcake French Toast. My son liked the Japanese Potato Hash, although he wished there was another way to add more protein besides bacon. I had the Hot Chicken + Waffle and really enjoyed it, and my husband had the Nashville Crispy Chicken Sandwich. The food took a little longer than expected, but the service more than made up for it. Our server was genuinely kind, honest, and attentive, which can make such a difference. We came in mostly because we were hungry and running out of options, but left really happy we gave Common Stock a chance. Great food and, more importantly, really great service.

We were visiting from out of state and staying in the area, and came across this place on Yelp…read more I'll start by saying the service was good. Our server was friendly and answered our questions, we had no complaints there. However the menu was very limited and the food was okay. We may have had to do more research but it didn't seem very family or kid friendly (menu wise). We ended up getting the pizza rolls, rotisserie chicken, crispy Brussels and chicken sandwich. The pizza rolls I was picturing something like a Totino's pizza roll or a savory cinnamon roll, so I asked about it and our server described it similar to an "empanada". It ended up being closer to a wonton than anything. It wasn't bad but was fairly oily. Wouldn't order again. The rotisserie chicken was really good and I liked the sauce it came with. The chicken was pretty tender as well. The chicken sandwich was okay. There was a lot of mayo/creamy sauce. Combined with the fried chicken it felt a bit heavy. The bun was really good though. We really liked the Brussels sprouts. It has a great citrusy taste and was cooked well.

Please note they are a tad greasy and again, large. So don't come in for just a snack! The meat on both were the superstars. They also are a full butchery (they even have a subscription box!). So there are meats in the case and marinated options galore. We came for breakfast but left with some chicken and red meat options for dinner this week. It's a tad expensive for both sandwiches and the meats but all in all seem right for the quality. Service was also fast and friendly. Very knowledgeable and ready to help. We got street parking but there's also a small lot it's attached to. There's some counter seating outside you can eat at once you order. Would def recommend!

Burger: 3.5/5 The cheeseburger was fine. The meat was a bit welldone and wasn't as juicy as I would have liked. The burger included a raw red onion, lettuce and pickles. Had to add some ketchup to the burger as the sauce included was a bit lacking. The fries were decent - a nice bit of heft, slight crispiness, and salted nicely. Had to use a bit more ketchup though to enjoy, but that's how I like it. Service: 4.5/5 Upon ordering I had mentioned that I'd like the burger split, and wasn't expecting them to serve the burger on two separate trays. I presume we also got a few extra fries as well. I appreciated them going above in that regard. While some say it's an expected service, I've found more places charge extra or even decline (just give you a plastic knife to do it yourself). The small touch of service was nice.

The Bonehead burger alone is $13...it felt like it was almost reminding me of a fast food burger...it was flavorful and overall pretty good, but for $13 I felt it was a rip off. It was mostly toppings of chopped up bacon, fried onions and veggies. Next were the tots, they were a HUGE portion (which I would've appreciated in the burger) and covered in what I can only imagine was that fake nacho cheese in a can. soggy and disappointing. The tots by themselves were delicious and crispy, but covered in the cheese they end up soggy and falling apart. I guess that's on me though to order cheddar cheese, I should've clarified what kind of cheese it would've been. Service was slow, only one person working the front helping people order, cleaning tables, grabbing condiments and bringing food to the tables. They definitely needed another person there to help out. I watched my burger sit under heat lamps for at least 5+ minutes.

I had it "for here," and was given a number plaque card. My friends all had the different flavored lemonade so safe to say it was refreshing and worth the price. I chose the $11.80, Lounge Burger: a grass fed burger with cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and Burger Lounge 1000 Island sauce. I asked for no onions. I liked that their cheddar cheese wasn't salty unlike other places. The burger was pretty good and I like that they used fresh lettuce and tomatoes. The bun, wasn't my preferred -- felt like wheat or something. But it seems like that's what their brand is going for? They have lots of options for keto friendly, gluten free, vegan, vegetarian, etc! They actually have servers that ask you how the food is, anything else they could get for us, etc. It was surprising, but very nice. I shared some fries with my friend and the fries were delicious! I like that they kept the skin on some of them which added a nice texture while the interior was fluffy. Next time, I would make a combo for sure. It was very clean and organized at this location. I would recommend this spot, just note the prices are slightly elevated compared to a casual burger space.

I also noticed they dont repeat the order back to you before you pay, that has caused some confusion before. This week my partner order the combo meal but instead was charged for the fries and drink separate from the meal. Had she repeated the order we would have caught her mistake. Food is still good although i recently tried the quinoa burger which was probably the worst veggie patty I've tried. It was definitely cooked from frozen but not well enough as it was kind of a gooey sticky fall apart texture so it immediately fell apart. I want to keep coming back but after recent visits I'm becoming hesitant.
