    Mac N Cheeseburger and Fries
    Matthew W.

    Came here when we arrived the evening before The Masters. We were happy to see other patrons there and had fun talking with them at the bar. It was busy, but we were served quickly and efficiently, and the staff was very nice. The food was great, we loved the friend pickles and cheese curds. I tried the Mac N Cheeseburger, which was a special for Masters week. It was great as well, I love the creamy Mac n cheese with the crispy Texas toast. I'd for sure come back again!

    Second time here and nothing really impressive the food is okay... Service is slow to average... People in our group were given warm bottle beer. By warm I am talking room temperature and this was on a Saturday evening. If someone said the beer came from the warehouse to the truck to the table and bypassed any refrigeration.... I would believe it.

    Enjoyable experience, great food, cold drinks, homey as well as friendly staff and patrons.

    We haven't been out to eat when we come to Augusta. I chose this place because it was close to the hotel. We were pleasantly surprised and pleased by this place. It's nicely put together and very spacious. The vibe is great. The service was top tier our waitress made sure we were well taken of. I had wings and boy oh boy they didn't have those small wings. Flavors were great. I am coming back to Augusta to dine here again.

    Egg rolls
    Alexis H.

    First time here & after reading all the recommendations, you better get those egg rolls!! The portions are perfect for sharing, there was only 3 of us but we made a dent in those nachos. Service was decent, our server was friendly. Great place to hang out too it seems like.

    On tap lost!

    The parking lot looked super packed on a late Saturday afternoon, but we figured we would still try to get in. No wait, and the place did not appear full. The service was very friendly, and the decor was "barish". The food, however, was delicious. We started with drinks - list in the photos. We opted for the Black Cherry Cider, and it did not disappoint. He got the mac n cheese with burnt ends (it could have had a few more pieces included in the dish), but the mac n cheese was rich and creamy, and the ends were tasty. I had the buffalo chicken wrap with a side of mac - it was HOT HOT and good. The only reason I did not give this a five-star review was the restrooms were disgusting - they smelled terrible and needed a good cleaning. I can imagine this place gets pretty busy on sporting days, and on nights, they have live entertainment and are family-friendly in the afternoons and early evenings.

    Seafood skillet

    Great space with a vacation vibe. We tried the Carolina hot chicken sandwich. Excellent! My husband loved it and kept commenting on how good the coleslaw was. I had the seafood skillet. It was good, but incredibly rich! I asked for some tortilla chips on the side so I could use them to eat the crawfish dip at the bottom of my skillet.

    Club sandwich

    Good food, oysters were okay (obviously not as good as New England oysters), my club sandwich was fresh and came in big portion. It's more like a sports bar, great place to grab quick lunch and some drinks during the daytime, good atmosphere.

    Who doesn't like a good brunch?! Doc's was recommended by a Facebook friend and I went for a birthday brunch with a good friend. The parking lot looked super packed, but there was still open spaces to park further in the rear. Walking into the establishment, there was lots of cheer going in because there was a football game on at the time. I was sat at a table very quickly and my waitress came just seconds later. (I love that) I decided to get the chicken and waffles with the unlimited mimosas. The waffles had a crispy texture and just the right sweetness, the chicken tenders were juicy, seasoned just right and went well with the side of gravy. If you're looking for mimosas, that MIMOSA LIKE BRUNCH MIMOSAS SHOULD, Doc's is the place for you. I tried both the pineapple juice and Orange juice mimosas and they both were a hit. If you like a sweeter mimosa, opt for the orange juice. The food came out quickly and we weren't rushed out like most other places that try to turn over tables quickly. Everything was A+ and this restaurant is now my #1 pick for brunch in Augusta.

    The food was amazing. It is a very entertaining place. It took awhile to be seated, but was well worth the wait.

Parking was its usual Broad Street challenge, yet once inside there was plenty of space and an easygoing rhythm to the dining room. The only real hiccup was the slightly counterintuitive flow of things, since you order first and then find a seat, and I wasn't the only one who walked in and paused awkwardly until someone pointed out the process. I've said for a while that you should stick to what a place is named for, because ordering chicken wings at a pizza shop or a barbecue joint has burned me more than once, but tonight I ignored that rule and it turned out to be the right call. Mrs. K took down my side of fries with enthusiasm while I focused on the wings, meaty and generously sauced, the kind you finish without a second thought and then sit back with a local beer feeling like you made exactly the right choice. Every single one was worth it, no regrets at all, a small delight tucked inside a busy Augusta evening. I did see two of those massively stacked burgers get delivered to another table and while I was a little jealous, I know that having it without the bun wouldn't have honored it the way it should be. Maybe when I'm not on keto. [Review 228 of 2026 - 928 in Georgia - 25417 overall]

    I'm sorry to write that I had a very disappointing experience at Farmhaus Burger today…read more The plan was to visit Farmhaus Burger with a friend for burgers and a few beers on a non-descript Tuesday afternoon. Before visiting I checked the website to see when Happy Hour was and it was clearly advertised as being from 3-6PM (the pic should be attach as part of my review). Because you know, as a customer you want to know what the policies are and plan accordingly. So we plan to land there around the 3:30ish time frame. So, sure enough we end up there right around 3:30PM. We get in line and get our burgers ordered, I ask about Happy Hour and I'm told that it starts at 4PM. OK, that's odd, b/c the website clearly said differently. But no big deal. Because I'll get seated, pull up the website, show them what is clearly being advertised and they will honor it, right? Wrong. Allow me to elaborate. I get seated at the bar and I talk to the bartender (the other guy who told me about Happy Hour was working the cashier so maybe he wasn't in the loop). I bring up the website and show him that Happy Hour is clearly advertised as being from 3-6PM (on the front page no less). I am told that this is an "old picture" but offers to talk to a manager. He comes back and tells me they are "in the process of changing". I'm not really sure what that means, but OK. So, I make a suggestion. The current time was 3:39PM and I asked if he could serve me a beer, and then ring it in at 4:00PM. That way, they get to honor what was advertised and drew me into restaurant, I get my beer, and they have time to change whatever needs changing. It's a win-win situation. This was also a no go. At this point I'm legitimately baffled at their poor customer service. I don't make a scene. I don't ask to speak to the manager. We simply eat our food and go. Heck, I was treated better at Target when I was returning a printer earlier in the day. Long story short, I will not be returning and they will not be getting any more of my money. I'm not sure what else is incorrect on their website. But good luck if you decide to visit.

The service was absolutely top-notch, the food was excellent, and the ambiance was certainly very mellow. Our server, Cassandra, was very friendly and knowledgeable. She took the time to explain the menu and made some great recommendations. Their menu is a southern American fusion for sure, putting unique spins on classic dishes. Here's what we had: Drinks: -Bottle of: Vitiani rosso Appetizer: -Charcuterie board (a la carte): -Bresaola (pork) -The drunken goat (Spanish cheese) -The red dragon cheddar cheese -Bacon Jam Dinner: -Pork loin chop -Confit duck pot pie -Beet carpaccio Salad The charcuterie board was very unique and delicious. Afterwards, my lady, and I split the beet salad, her dad had the pork loin, and her mom had the pot pie. Everything was absolutely delicious.

The restaurant is unique on the inside and gives a somewhat hole-in-the-wall bar vibe (but cleaner). During the day time, I would say it is family friendly, but at night it can definitely get rowdier so go at your own risk, it is called Whiskey Bar after all. The burgers are very good and are cooked very well with lots of options for customization. I always go for the classic WB(K) burger with Swiss cheese and pickles. The waffle fries are always so crisp and yummy. The same goes for the potstickers as an appetizer. Even their other burger combos that seem strange are actually pretty good if you are into that type of burger. The service is always pretty good. Friendly staff that was quick. Not a long wait on a Tuesday night, but have definitely waited before on a Friday or Saturday. They have a first come, first serve bar as well. The tables can be somewhat cramped depending on where you are sat and it is definitely not an accessible place as the entrance is crammed and all the tables are high tops on the inside, the outside is better with low top tables and benches. The Diet Coke was okay. A little syrupy so their ratio on the fountain soda machine must be a little off. Still good, but I have had better. Overall, one of the best burger restaurants in Augusta and most stop place in the area!
