They answered our questions and provided recommendations upon request. We had a large group, so it was taking a while for all of the food to be ready. I decided to just get a raspberry white chocolate scone and a greena colada so that I didn't have to wait a very long time to eat. We enjoyed sitting upstairs where we could all sit together and watch the scenery while eating. The kids loved the space, and it also provided us with some privacy for our birthday celebration. The scone was very good. I was a bit disappointed with the smoothie, though. I was expecting it to be flavorful and naturally sweet due to the mangoes and pineapple as well as the honey that was supposed to be added, but it was quite bland and not flavorful at all. Everyone else seemed to have enjoyed their food.

Even at 1:30 am, they're friendly, quick and the food delicious! This place sets the mood in the same way Waffle House or any gas station bathroom does - classically janky....though I'll say it has had a facelift since we were last here. We went to another cookout when we touched down and left because it looked too nice and didn't have a wrong sided drive thru! As such, we came back down Nostalgias highway to our OG cookout on Hillsbrough! It was exactly what we wanted! The stand alone, dual drive thru (with walk up) set up of this place is nothing short of amazing. If you had to design a place, it might accidentally turn out like this and you'd just accept it, not realizing the brilliance that is passing food through a passenger window! Seriously, of through the drive thru on the left. The food is such a perfect example of southern burgers - it's like in-n-out that you want to come back to! Cheddar style, steak style, west style - don't matter, it's all boss level! You'd like a burger with sides of corn dog and walking taco? Got it - one of 55 shake options? Done - more hush puppies? On it! The loudspeakers have been improved upon - you used to just pretend you understood what was being said and accept what you received. Now, they repeat it back at least. Our kids scarfed it down so fast we literally went through and ordered a second time, 6 minutes later. Three burgers, nuggets, rings and the equivalent of three pints of ice cream can't be wrong! Aside from my children, I may not love a human child more than this burger joint. It's so good, any time, any days, double stamp it, touch blue make it true, no eraseys! Thanks for living up to the hype 15 years later!

The SERVICE was horrible. Guy behind counter told me the soda machine only had diet soda, which was what I wanted anyway. Out of curiosity I asked if it was hospital policy to exclude sugar soda or if the machine was just out of sugar syrups. He responded "don't know" in a "don't care" attitude.

Most eating here in the hospital cafeteria are carrying the weight of poor health on their shoulders, whether their own or a loved one. It's a hospital cafeteria so its a place to sit down, and could be a good break from sitting in a loved ones patient room. It's not a restaurant that one would come to if not in the hospital.

I visited this bojangles on today,only to have to return my filet chicken biscuit because the biscuit ws very old and chicken filet looked old and had horrible stuff in and on it. when I took it back with reciept in hand the manager questioned me like he was a prosecuting attorney for the chicken. the reciept was no more than an hour before I returned only because I had got to work and had to wait until someone could cover me so that I could make the return. Brian or steven whatever his name was poked the chicken with his pointy finger acting like a just dropped a dead duck on his counter and ket asking me when did you get htis?? I mean reall Ihave never been so dissappointed in bojangles. this manager acted horrible and I will NEVER return again...It's just chcicken...you do not own that establishment, if YOU did I would have been treated better. please learn customer service QUICKLY...MY RECIEPT IS STAMPED AT 7:AM ...THE CHICKEN SHOULD HAVE NEVER LOOKED THIS OLD. i WILL BE CONTACTING COPORATE read more

I ordered a double classic burger, medium. I never expected that it would take 30 minutes, but it did. With a drink, my total was about $21. So since I would have to wait longer than I anticipated, I got an Arnold Palmer and walked around the area for a while. Alcohol is available if you want. Draft beer, canned beer, bottled beer. I think they had some seltzer as well, but not totally sure about that one. Once I came back from walking around the horseshoe, I grabbed a stool. I liked the wall decor with the license plates from various states. The staff brough the burger to me and I have to say it was quite big, especially since I spent the $4 for an extra patty. The burger was closer to medium well, it was mostly gray inside, but it was still juicy and that's all I really cared about. American cheese was decently melted. The potato roll was wonderful. Veggie toppings were fresh, which I always appreciate. I Though the wait was rough, it was a tasty burger. I might have to try the smashburger one of these days. Or the turkey burger, that looked really good too.
