I was fully prepared to let this go--truly, I was…read more Then I saw a cross-post on Facebook enthusiastically declaring the restaurant's love for students while politely reserving the summer months for the "townies." Nothing makes the locals feel appreciated quite like being marketed as seasonal seat-fillers. I'm a burger 'n a beer guy, and I had been meaning to try this place for a while--even though I suspected I might not fit the target demographic (people who know what Wagyu beef is and believe that it is for burgers- that's not me). Still, I did my part. I chose a quiet summer Sunday evening and took my wife. The place wasn't crowded, and we were seated quickly. So far, so good. The townies were in play! I asked for a draft beer list. I didn't feel it in the moment but that is where the train jumped off of the track! Instead, I received a QR code. Fine. I've played this game before and it worked great, taking me directly to the current beer list. Except this QR code didn't lead to a beer list. It led to an app. Apparently; beverages had been placed behind a technological security checkpoint. I'm not in the habit of collecting unnecessary restaurant apps like souvenir cups, but I tried to be a good sport and downloaded it. The app then requested my personal information so I could create an account--because, evidently, viewing a draft beer list now requires the same level of commitment as applying for a mortgage. That was where I drew the line. I closed the app, deleted it, and decided I would just drink water. Then I remembered why I had come: a burger and a beer. A burger and water felt less like dinner and more like disciplinary action. So, I told my wife we needed a new plan, because we weren't eating there. We regrouped at The Irish Bred Pub in Opelika and had a great meal. No app. No account. No data harvesting. No identity verification. I didn't even need to provide the name of my first pet. Better yet, there was no need to consult a beer list--they always have Guinness on tap. I won't be back to Jack Brown's Beer & Burger Joint. Will my absence affect their's bottom line? Of course not. I'm one townie with unreasonable expectations--like being allowed to see what beer is available without entering into a formal digital relationship. But from this townie's perspective, the customer-engagement experience was a complete miss. The food may be outstanding. It may also be a spectacularly good value. I'll never know because I couldn't make it past the beer-menu background check. Potenial customers keep doing what you're doing. Just understand that anyone who wants to see the draft beer list will apparently need to surrender an email address first. Oh--and for the record, I never even clicked the QR code for the food menu. By then, I had already exceeded my administrative limit for dinner.

We've been looking for a great lunch spot for a midway stop on our trips from lower Alabama to NC…read moreand back. Auburn was a great midway point and Niffer's was highly rated on Yelp. Great section of VERY reasonably priced lunch entrees. The atmosphere and the service was top notch. I think it was about 4 miles from I85, and well worth the extra 8 miles it added to the trip. Best burgers we've had in a while. I'm not a fan of thin, quick cooking smash burgers so we were pleased to see nice, thick, juicy patties! This fine restaurant will give us something to look forward to, every time we pass by Auburn, in route to Atlanta, or North Carolina. It's usually just the two of us, but this trip we took my in-laws, and everybody was very happy with their choices from the extensive lunch menu. Total bill was surprisingly inexpensive.

We came Valentine's Day weekend from Columbus, GA after attending mass. He really wanted to take me here and I'm so glad he did. We had the bread and butter which was to die for! I think they gave us too much butter over bread ratio, but l'm not complaining haha. So warm, soft, fluffy and delish the bread was. I don't think we talked much when we had our wagyu steak main course cause it was so good, we couldn't say a word to each other. The pepper sauce with the perfectly cooked medium rare steak (which came cut in two pieces, which is a really genius move to serve steak by the way), with white asparagus, caramelized onion, rose petals, and just pure deliciousness. Literally chef's kiss. We also couldn't make up our mind about desserts cause they had a Valentine's dessert menu and the couple sitting next to us also recommended the cookies and milk. Yeah- I'm really lucky and very spoiled. Definitely hit a sugar high, but absolutely worth it. Servers and greeters were also all so kind and attentive. Definitely recommend :) I think this is the nicest dinner anyone has ever treated me to. Thanks for my amazing boyfriend- I'm so grateful.

Took my wife here for a date night. We don't get to go out much so I figured that it would be…read morespecial for us to try something new. Let me start by saying the building is beautiful and the atmosphere feels like a nice restaurant. Also, the cocktail menu was definitely curated by someone who knows what they are doing. The appetizer Barrotta cheese was the best part of the evening. With that being said, the entrees were lackluster and small. Our food came out lukewarm at best and honestly seemed like not a lot of thought went into them. I know that this restaurant is supposed to be upscale, but I don't think I should pay 55$ per persons meal and still leave hungry. Also, the staff needs training. The whole time it felt like they were concerned with fast turn over and nothing else. Part of upscale dining is that the price of food and quality of service is more important than turn over time. Generally speaking I will not be back to eat here again.

Visited here on a road trip today. We got the pretzel bites with beer cheese (some of the best beer…read morecheese I've ever had!) to share. Then I got the Pub Burger which was two smash burger patties with bacon and beer cheese on a pretzel bun. The burger was fantastic - completely loved it. The fries were also some of the best fries I've had in recent memory. They were battered and also perfectly seasoned. Staff was super friendly and helpful. They have plenty of TVs for watching games, and they also have a cool lounge area with loads of games. I would absolutely eat here again.

Though I'm glad he didn't cuz a meal that was alright quality costs me more than a larger and better portion at Amsterdam cafe. Don't really bother coming here for anything besides alcohol because the food is way overpriced for what you're getting. Also it took bro 30 minutes to cook up nachos and chicken when we were the only people in the entire store, definitely just another come and go restaurant of Auburn that'll be gone in the next 2 years or so.

A friend & I got to drop in for lunch, and it did not disappoint. The decor hasn't changed much - it's still comfortable & clean. There's free parking in the front & sides of the building.

Garrett suggested Amsterdam for lunch. Located near the Auburn campus, Amsterdam is one of more well known eateries off campus. Students may not have eaten at Amsterdam, but most can point you in the right direction. I've been tricked by appearances before but Amsterdam is in a category of its own. There's a front and a back part of the building. But I didn't know that until we were led to our table in the back. The front part is a typical "smallish" restaurant with tight booths and tables. The decorations of impressionist painters adorn the walls giving the front dining room a warm inviting feel. When we were led to our table, I thought I was being led to the restrooms. We actually went past the restrooms down a small flight of stairs and into another large room. This beautiful back room was oozing the "hidden wine cellar" vibe throughout. There were tables and chairs in the center with smaller tables and chairs lining one wall and booths on another. Then there's a large full service bar lining the 3rd wall and a workstation on the 4th wall. The ceiling with hanging panels of wood moved the light beautifully and impressed me. There was also a large floor to ceiling wine rack next to our 4 top. Gary tried their Omelet. Three eggs served with conecuh sausage, bacon, onions, peppers, cheddar cheese, and potatoes. With the sourdough toast, the plating was immaculate. I didn't get to taste it, but Gary didn't have any deiicions/ Garrett opted for their Brunch special: Apple & Pecan Freeman toast. When it arrived to our table, we immediately noticed the large slices of French toast. As promised, the French toast was topped with slices of peaches and apples and butter brown sugar with white powder sugar as well. Again I didn't get to taste, but I savored it with my eye. Paul and I tried the Amsterdam Burger. He got some fries as his side, but I upgraded my side to a beautifully plated side salad. With the added fried egg, my patty was grilled to a perfect medium with just a hint of pink. Stacked with it was some lettuce, caramelized onions, applewood bacon, spicy pickles, tomato and their traditional burger sauce all squeezed together between 2 bun halves, it has to be stabbed with a long food pick to hold it together. It was juicy, tasty and just Yom Yom Yom Yom. Our server was attentive and checked on us frequently. Other notable menu items include fried brussels, lobster egg rolls, rum salmon, breakfast croissant, snickerdoodle pancakes, steak & eggs, egg white omelet and shrimp & grits. I was told their Crab Cake & Avocado is to die for. Meal prices are on the high end but Amsterdam understands how to elevate Southern comfort food.
