    Needed to stop at Brewers the other day and figured I'd grab dinner from Cravings. I've always been a fan, but forget about this place. It was great to see everyone working following CDC guidelines. There were about 7-8 employees working and all of them wore their masks correctly and wore gloves. All of the tables have been pushed to the side (no dine-in) and signage was clearly posted. Plexi at the register and no one waiting inside. Consistently good food and equally great customer service.

    Back in the day I used to frequent Cravings at least once a week. When I'd recommend them to others I'd always say just don't look around, as the food was always great but the kitchen and dining area a mess. I always found pick up to be sloppy and unorganized and usually involved some confusion and yelling in Greek. But the food was always delicious. I "craved" it and could overlook the flaws. Fast forward 15 years. I no longer frequent that area as much as I did and hadn't ordered from them in as many years. Some errands lead me in that direction at lunchtime and I remembered fondly the fries on their sandwiches and how much I loved them. I hoped that my recent visit would reignite the love I once felt. And it didn't disappoint. I was so smitten that a few days later I wanted to order again, only they're closed on Sundays. Bummer! While their menu changed slightly my favorites were still available, including my favorite the #2. The boardwalk fries added to the sandwich were still the same and continues to take this sandwich to the next level. The addition of a side of pickle fries (not available years ago) is a must order and also did not disappoint. My only complaint was a spicy aoli dripping sauce would have been a better compliment than plain ranch. While the kitchen has cleaned up the chaos and confusion still appears to be present behind the counter. Considering I placed my order when they first opened - for pick up an hour and 15 minutes later- during my hurried lunch hour, it still wasn't ready when I got there. I waited about 5 minutes when they were completely empty as I take lunch before it's customary. Not a horrible injustice but time is valuable, especially when you need to get back to work. After all these years it was disappointing to see that very little in that area has improved. I still recommend take out over dining in as the dining area is nothing to look at and only brings to light the hodgepodge of activity behind the counter. The pickle fries, a must!

    I ordered the Bacon & Blue Burger and the Kiddie Korner Chicken Fingers to go. The burger was underwhelming - the bacon was a nice portion, but there was too much cheese for the thin, relatively dry patty and lackluster bun. The Chicken Fingers meal was worse. I understand it is intended for children. The girl for whom I ordered it was disappointed. The fries were shriveled and dry. She said the chicken fingers tasted alright but they were small and, again, tasted *alright*. Perhaps I should have ordered a sub or cheesesteak. I may try again next time I'm in town.

    Let me just say... yum yum yum .. the bread is perfect .. not soggy.. flavorful .. delivery was pretty prompt!! Very happy right now!!

    Cravings... yes. You will have many, many cravings for their food once you've had it. I love the zucchini sticks... sooo good *wipes drool* Tried a few different sandwiches, a different one each time I've gone. Each time... very tasty and fresh. Customer service is a lil' "hit or miss"... Some of the guys seem a lil' more preoccupied with what's on TV than the fact that you're slightly confused and may have a question or 2. I think there should be more than one napkin dispenser... but... that's neither here nor there, I guess? Seating is comfy. I like that there is a choice of 2 different areas. I'd give 5 stars, but I think their customer service needs a lil' work. Other than that, the food is fresh, crisp, and tasty. The restaurant is also, always (in my experiences) clean... which is a definite PLUS.

I looked on Yelp and quickly pivoted here and I'm glad I did! The woman behind the counter was very kind and personable to everyone who walked in, there were free cookies that they were testing out that customers could take, and the seating was limited but clean. The big windows give nice views out to the parking lot and the rolling hills beyond. I ordered a "Rancher" which was one of the hot sandwiches. A bit like a cheesesteak but with ranch dressing and bacon. The sandwich was ready in no time at all and tasted great! Could definitely see myself coming back next time I'm in the area.

    Tough place to review. Got the Johnny Boy sandwich and…read morefries. Johnny boy was prosciutto, thick sliced mozzarella, soprasetta, arugula and olive oil. The fries are always fantastic here! Definitely a top choice if you come here. The sandwich tasted great. The main problem I have is that I am not a fan of their rolls. The rolls are very doughy and seemed like there was too much roll for the sandwich. The service was quick and fast, the lady at the front register was very kind. Great service is always a plus in my mind for a restaurant. The location was clean, easy parking, and setup nice on the inside with plenty of seating. The price per sandwich is a little bit expensive.

My son ordered a huge sandwich (can't remember what it was called) and it has coleslaw and fries inside. I snatched a fry and they were so good! Three people, three sandwiches and under $40.

We ordered the New Yorker sandwich this time (had the Don last time). It was good but not great. The spicy mustard was unevenly applied so was missing on my half and was badly needed. The Don sandwich last week had meat spread throughout and the fries in the sandwich were crunchy and not limp like today's sandwich. We also had naked BBQ wings that were good, but again, not as good as we had last week. The wings were bigger, meatier and better sauced last time. Apparently didn't take pics last weekend for comparison, but it was noticeably better then so would suspect that cooking is uneven. Last week was a 5, today was just a 3, so I averaged.

This was a delicious sandwich that just screams Georgia! We also tried the Madfather Chicken Sandwich! Pesto, Vodka Sauce, Mozzarella, this thing was outstanding! The fries are always a highlight here! We got the bucket (had a bigger group) and it came with 3 sauces. 1 tiny little knock on the fry bucket....the entire bucket was not filled with fries.
