    2nd time here and customer service is amazing and same for the food. The best burger in the fast food game, taste like a homemade charcoal grill. I'm so happy they have zucchini also, probably my fav veggie and I can eat it everyday

    $15 for this sad box

    The food is great here. I always come to a Farmer Boys when I'm the area. The employee was super friendly and nice. I ordered a veggie pattie, waited then it came with a natural pattie. I sent it back mistakes happen (I was charged for the natural patty which was 20 cents more) didn't complain, waited got my meal and it was the same fries now cold. I just got my meal to go as it had been 20 or mins now. I open the box at my destination, and the fries that they replaced with hot ones is half of what they took from me. I paid $15 and I got less than a value fry amount. I've got the box before and it was more than this, I could have got the regular meal for $18 and got more. She was helping me out by saving with the box. What a joke. Wasted my money. I will never go to this location again.

    Fast food joint with a farm fresh take. They advertise that their beef is never frozen or pumped full of additives. All the eggs they use are hand cracked. Service is on par as far as fast food restaurants go. They're a little slower than other fast food restaurants, but quality is a lot better. They do all day breakfast and they have a few salads on the menu. They also serve you here if you choose to dine in. If you feel like they did a good job, there is a bell hanging by the exit that they want you to ring on the way out... each time someone rings it, the staff all say "thank you!" The dinning room was very cold the night we ate here. They have the typical fast food dining room going on with booths lining the walls and four tops taking up the middle. There are two tables outside to sit at. The tables, chairs and floors looked clean.

    Came here over the weekend and found live roaches in my bag as well as my food, totally gross. When I took the food back and showed the workers pictures, they let me know that they have only over had dead roaches in their packaging and never live so not to worry... dead or alive is an unacceptable so this is not an accuse. Please be careful when ordering here and check your food!! Cleanliness is extremely important when making/selling food so I hope this improves at this location.

    Natural Cheeseburger. Asked for lettuce wrapped + add tomato. YUM!

If you're going to burger and fry it, this is the way! Price is a little up there, but your taste buds will understand why. The beef tallow fries were sooooo good. Crispy edges, fluffy center, ACTUAL potato. The garlic fries had bold fresh garlic and are cooked in avocado oil, but leaned a little soggy. Shockingly, I preferred the classic tallow fries. Husband and I split two doubles. The Garlic Mushroom Burger was juicy, savory, and loaded with mushrooms, pickles, American cheese, and garlic spread. The Flamin Smash had jalapeño, pickles, American cheese, and chipotle spread. Big flavor, gentle kick, & hella satisfying. Washed it all down with the Cucumber Lemonade that's sweetened with agave syrup. Not too sweet! I didn't catch the cashier's name, but he was super friendly and helpful. Cozy, clean spot with a patio on the side for extra seating. Service was crazy fast. This place is a bit far from me and I am already planning the drive back! That's how you know it smash-ed!

We came with friends from church after service on Mother's Day. One family suggested this place and it seemed interesting from the Yelp! Reviews. It was early evening and the rush hasn't started. I got the Chorizo Diablo and my wife got their mushroom cheese burger along with fries and onion rings. They offer stubborn soda line so had the root beer. My burger was messy but delicious and my wife thought that her burger was a bit bland. I never consider mushroom burgers an option, always the beef for me! Fries and onion rings were tasty. Next time I'll try their fig jam sliders, this sounds interesting. There's plenty of seating both inside and out. And it's dog-friendly...we might bring our corgi the next time we come. Yes, we'll return to try their other offerings.

The atmosphere strikes that rare balance between relaxed neighborhood charm and thoughtfully curated design. It feels intimate without being cramped, lively without being loud. Whether you're meeting friends for brunch or settling in for a long, unhurried dinner, the space just works. The food is outstanding. Every dish feels intentional--fresh ingredients, bold but balanced flavors, and presentation that elevates the experience without being pretentious. You can taste the quality. The menu manages to be creative while still delivering comfort and approachability. It's the kind of place where you start planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished your plate.

First off, Im 100% sure the owner here uses ChatGPT to answer all negative yelp reviews. Any business owner worth their weight is able to think for themselves and use their brain to answer unless they're completely illiterate or too incompetent to think of a good response. Second off, are they even a brewery? I see cans and taps of their own beer, but looking into the business, I dont think they own a brewery at all. This is more along the lines of a taphouse/pub. THAT BEING SAID, the food is quite nice. I think the pizza is great and it feels like they make and roll their own dough which is respectable and ambitious for a random little spot like this. But It is quiet...too quiet. The beer tender would constantly hangout at the handicap table talking to any co-worker with free time on their hands for a long time. Seems like a cushy job honestly. I'm assuming they would hold conversation with customers, but unfortunately There were no customers... its a ghost town, and i left thinking, "This place is creepy." I'll just pick up and eat the pizza at home next time. I'm waiting to see what generic CHATGPT response the owner gives me.
