    Irish Whiskey Burger
    Arisha H.

    Was looking for a new place to try and this spot did not disappoint. We were greeted as soon as we entered and told we could sit anywhere. It is a small divey spot which I loved! There's outdoor seating and private parking lot with plenty of parking. They brand the buns -looks great and doesn't affect the flavor or softness. The burger was juicy and the sauce was so delish! I recommend getting more on the side. The chicken was tender and moist- needed more sauce and blue cheese. We asked for the bacon well done and probably should've just said we didn't want it rubbery bc he definitely took well done to heart. They have a full bar and carry Pepsi products. Oh and the fries so good and the cook seasoned them just right. Will definitely return for that burger!

    First visit to McGrath's was decent, though the AC was broken, so it was like an oven inside. The waiter apologized when we arrived and explained the situation. These things happen. I had the All American and my hubs had the Irish burger. Both were delicious and just the right size. Service was awesome and friendly! The only thing we both didn't like were the fries. They tasted completely uncooked. I had to smother mine in ranch to make them edible. Not great. I would return to try other items and I hope they add some other side menu items for variety!

    I returned to McGrath's Burger Shack for dinner last week. I ordered the Irish Burger this time, I highly recommend this burger. It was juicy, packed with flavor, and cheesy. I also tried the Reuben Pierogies . They were delicious! Perfectly made with shavings of corned beef and kraut. I love pierogies, they are hard to find at restaurants. The server was very efficient and nice. She kept our drinks filled and checked on us alot. We loved the decor and the atmosphere at McGraths. It's laid back and they have TVs to watch the games . I might be a regular customer here soon! It's so good!

    The food here is always great. Great service and love the atmosphere. I had the Irish Beer Cheese Fog and Jalapeño Heat sliders.

    Burgers were good , fries were my favorite, the inside of the restaurant is very sticky and dirty . Very unappetizing to sit there seeing it while trying to eat my food . Service was nice

    Fried pickles
    May B.

    Wow my burger was everything. Took a while to get my burger but it was worth the wait. Their fried pickles are the best I ever had. Freaking delicious!!! The jalapeño burger was out so I guess I'll be coming back to try it!!

I kept giving it another chance, hoping things would improve, but that hasn't been the case. There have been multiple instances where orders were completely wrong. One time, a friend ordered scrambled eggs with cheese and they came out without cheese. She politely asked for it to be fixed, but when it came back, it was still wrong. When she brought it up again, the waitress told her the chef said it was correct, which was frustrating since it very obviously wasn't. After going back and forth, they finally brought out eggs that actually had cheese in them. This was incredibly frustrating because while we waited for our friend to get her food, our own food went cold because we didn't want to eat without her. Having them make her eggs multiple times Tuuk time. On another visit, I ordered pancakes and something was clearly off. It wasn't just that they didn't taste good, it tasted like something used had gone bad. I couldn't tell if it was the batter itself or maybe something like the butter on top, but either way it was enough to make me question the quality of the ingredients being used. The waitress asked if I wanted new pancakes, which I found kind of funny because it was like she completely expected me to finish eating them and that I was just giving her feedback. The last time I went was with my family, and the service was extremely slow. We waited about 10 minutes just to have someone take our drink order, and another 10 minutes to actually get the drinks. After that, we waited again for someone to come back and take our food order, but no one returned. After nearly 30 minutes of just sitting there with drinks and no order taken, we decided to leave. My husband left cash on the table for the sodas and we walked out. The restaurant was completely empty and there was no reason for it to have taken so long. If you've been there, you know that it is a very open dining area which means we could see all of the weight staff just standing around and chatting. if it had been very busy and taken time to get our food or drink drinks we absolutely would have understood because we know the wait staff can only do so much at once. I know this place seems popular, but after multiple visits with CONSTANT issues, it feels like more than just bad luck. The food quality has been very inconsistent, and most of the staff I've interacted with seemed inexperienced and not particularly friendly. Despite having been in there at least seven times I have never once left there without something being wrong or having terrible service.

The bar was definitely catering to regulars and most of the patrons look like they are there daily for their drinks. The bartenders and waitstaff are mainly made of good looking girls that are the main draw to regulars. There were enough TVs available to appease sports fans and there were some gaming machines on the other side of the bar. There is outdoor seating and I think it is mainly for smokers. The seating was mainly bar seating with a few available bench type tables. The actual reason why I came here was for the pork chops that I saw on the online menu which were unfortunately not available at this restaurant as the menu was changed recently. I ordered the fried cheese curds and a burger with a salad. The food was only ok and nothing to write home about. Service was mainly for the regulars as they were drinking more which added to their tabs. I ate my food and I was out of there, pretty disappointed. The bathrooms were kind of gross as well but I guess normal for a bar. I definitely don't recommend it here if you want to have a nice dinner. It's ok if you want to look at pretty girls while having some drinks and bar food.

Consistency--both in the kitchen and in the dining room--has made this longtime favorite a reliable choice for those who value substance over flash. The service reflects that same steadiness. The staff is welcoming, attentive, and knowledgeable without being overbearing--always ready with thoughtful suggestions for anyone navigating the menu. I began with the garden salad, a straightforward but well-executed mix of fresh greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and sweet Vidalia onions, finished with housemade croutons and a balanced balsamic vinaigrette. It's a simple dish done right, which sets the tone for what follows. The she-crab soup--an award-winning staple--delivers exactly what you hope for in a classic rendition. Rich, velvety, and deeply satisfying, it's best enjoyed in a cup unless you plan on making it the centerpiece of your meal. For the entrée, the French Dip stands out as a clear highlight. Built on a soft roll and filled with thinly sliced prime rib--slow-roasted to achieve both tenderness and depth of flavor--it's served with a properly seasoned au jus that brings the entire sandwich together. It's a dish that leans on quality ingredients and careful execution rather than unnecessary embellishment, and it succeeds because of it. Court House Café continues to earn its reputation the right way: consistent food, thoughtful service, and an atmosphere that feels rooted in the community it serves. In a dining landscape often chasing trends, this is a place that understands the value of doing the fundamentals exceptionally well--and doing them every time.

My only gripe is that I prefer Heinz ketchup with my fries which they do not have. The service is always top notch and the girls there are always friendly. My drink was never empty. Now, wait times may vary but it is worth the wait.
