My problem is with the quality of the fries, I couldn't eat half of them because they were so hard. I think they are just too finely cut and too fried so that combo makes some inedible if they are too thin? Seasoning was good. But okay wings + the fries + all of this costing $19 warrants a 3.5. I'd suggest just getting some wings if you stop by

This place is always very reliable and they always serve the food, fresh and hot. I definitely recommend this spot if you want wings of course also, their thighs are very underrated. The service is also pretty good too. I was surprised to find out they bring the food to you and your drinks. I thought it was more of a pick up style restaurant. I would definitely recommend if you haven't tried.

I got the chicken sandwich it's not the same and I'm devastated. It used to be the best fried chicken sandwhich in Durham. Now it's not worth the parking and walking up the hill. It's two pre breaded and fried chicken strips now. I miss the hand breaded fried sandwich it was amazing. The fries are the same they're waffle fried crisp. EVERYTHING IS MADE FRESH! The fudge brownies even aren't what they used to be. They're still excellent but something changed. I'm disappointed! I'd rather you guys raise your prices than lower your quality. However I realize you're catering to college students not my middle class middle age self. Don't know if it's worth the parking to come back again.

Super flavorful and huge and juicy but just wasn't into the flavor profile. My husband loved it. The pimento Mac and cheese is definitely more of a preference thing because my daughter said it tastes very "different", my husband thought it tasted like how his mom used to make it which he loved, and I wasn't a fan. It wasn't objectionable but just not my cup of tea. Something to note is that the pimento taste is very mild and not spicy whatsoever for those who may be concerned. Service was good. Great spot to bring your pup. The outdoor area is VERY dog friendly and they have a tap at the end of the bar specifically for filling dog water bowls which they provide. Cool spot with good food.

This iteration seems…read morelike the best for the area: it's very family friendly, with tons of games and playground area for the younger set. I came at 5:45 on a Monday (because no other places are open on Mondays!), and was one of maybe four me. In the place. The rest were moms with one or two (or more!) kids, some waiting for dad to join them after work. I ate in a covered patio that in a few months will be too hot to endure. But tonight, mid-March, it's a sunny delight. I ordered a smashburger and a Kingstown Negroni. Drae stirred my drink and out the order in, and it arrived with fries just minutes later. Juicy double patty burger, caramelized onions, cheese, salt & pepper fries. Fresh and very tasty. WiFi was fast, music was smooth but subdued. (Think Sade and Barry White dueling. Wish I wasn't alone!) Kids were everywhere, but very well-behaved and in explore mode, which I find adorable! There are outside areas covered in open or tarps, clear flexi-glass walled off areas, and true "indoor" places you can watch TV in. Everything from Top Gear to REN & Stimpy. A great way to spend an early dinner/very late lunch.

It's kind of a bug and feature. They have the order from your table QR code set up where you can get drinks and food served to you either inside or out. The service is always quick and prompt. This place is great on a nice day. It's not somewhere I would typically seek out myself unless with friends (with kids) or hosting a small party (where there might be friends (with kids) attending.

This is a little gem in Durham NC serv8ng up some down home cooking. They are a cafeteria style restraint serving up fresh to order fried chicken everyday along side a changing menu of food on the line. The day I went they were serving smothered pork chops, I jad to get the greens and huspuppies for my sides. The portions were crazy and they were generous with the gravy baby. Oh and I had to polish things off with that fresh banana pudding. Yall better stop playing and come down to chcien hut and get you a plate. The staff was full energy and we're genuinely friendly making it a personal experience for everyone. You could even tell that many regulars weee coming and going as the staff chopped it up with everyone there like they knew them. Great vibes and food to match, no wonder chicken hut has been such a staple in the community for so long.

A lovely woman there helps explain the process to those who look lost haha. So you go through the room to the right where there are dining tables and chairs and get in line to what looks like a buffet. 1 entree and 2 sides are included in your order, along with a drink your choice of either a roll or hush puppies. Dessert (cake) is extra. Pig's feet was $18.99 while smothered chicken with gravy was $17.99. Food selection changes daily. You get a ticket with the price, which you then take to pay at said counter. Everything was delicious. Wish we could have tried the oxtails (not available on the day we went) and fried chicken (sold out). The owner was serving huge portions to everyone. They were closing up and gifted us cake slices.

We were greeted upon entry and stood there looking in awe of their large and diverse beer selection. The bartender was knowledgeable and helpful when I (as always) asked a lot of questions about the beer. My husband chose an IPA and I chose a flight. We went outside to grab a table since we were meeting friends and there was very little seating inside it was nice out AND I think there was a birthday party going on.) None of us had eaten yet so we all decided to order different things and share. The brats, pretzels, and sidewinders were pretty good. The photos looked great and they came out tasting decent. The wings were excellent but the flatbread was awful. It was like tomato paste on a cracker. Our server was very attentive and even helped us move our stuff inside when it started to rain. My husband decided to have a couple more IPAs while we sat and talked. My friend and I got up to look at the merchandise and the open stock for sale. I liked the vibe so much that I bought a koozie featuring The Casual Pint. I was also thrilled to find a Salty Turtle beer that I very much enjoy but usually only get at the beach. At this point I would have rated it a 4 but then we got our bill. Even though neither one of us paid any attention to the prices on the beer, it was a little surprising that my husband's IPAs were $10 each. And my flight was $17 (4, 4oz pours). Add the 4 pack and food, our total was over $110 before tip. We should have paid more attention but since my husband felt that it was all highly overpriced AND he had ordered the flatbread that was unappetizing, he doesn't want to return. I wouldn't mind coming back though!

This is the way that BBQ should hit!!…read more We stopped in the "Shack" while visiting Durham. Having been huge fans of North Carolina style BBQ, we were not disappointed.My wife and daughter enjoyed the Pork Plate. By for me, I went with the two meat combo with Pulled pork and brisket. The pulled pork was spot on. It was perfectly smoked and almost melted in my mouth. With a touch of spicy vinegar sauce, I was gone to Carolina in my mind for the rest of the day. The brisket might have been some of the best I've ever had. It had a nice fat layer and was also "melt in your mouth" and juicy. The brisket didn't need any sauce at all. It was that good. The hushpuppies were the star at the table. My family considers themselves to be connoisseurs of hush puppies, and these were ranked in the top five. A respectable ranking from such a discriminating hushpuppy panel. The sides we sampled included collard greens, mac and cheese and BBQ beans. The collards and Mac and cheese were out of this world. I should have ordered a double serving of the collards. However, the beans were a huge disappointment. They were more like a bowl of sub-par chili than BBQ beans. If we return, they will not be selected. A great BBQ spot when you are in Durham. Highly recommend you stop by, if only to taste the brisket!
