Initially we were intrigued by the theme and quickly realized that this place is LEGIT. I'm not exaggerating when I say it was the best sandwich I've ever had in my entire life and everyone else at the table agreed with me. In fact, it was SO good that we drove back through Fayetteville (an hour out of our way) on the way home just to get another sandwich. I was worried about consistency but really didn't have anything to worry about. It was just as good as the first. Our server from the first time, Sky, recognized us and had a nice chat about the area and what he recommended. The service was fantastic and as a business owner myself, I wish I had 10 employees like Sky. We will be back up here with my son to tour of the U of A campus in a few months and I will absolutely be stopping by for another sandwich.

When we got there 1 sandwich was missing. We luckily was not charged for that sandwich. We had a side of chicken that was dropped on the floor out of the bag, but it was for the dog so that was fine. We got a bag of chips that was paid for and was not in the bag. When calling back to let them know, we were told that the counter servers were suppose to tell us to grab them, which did not happen. So very disappointed in this place and will never go back.

Do you like a good burger? I'd put them easily in the top 5 in Fayetteville and probably my favorite based on proximity to my house. Do you like a Ribeye? The N.A.T.O Grilled Ribeye is a beast of a sandwich that is worth the price. My wife sticks to one of the fried shrimp sandwiches because they are so good it doesn't make sense for her to change it up. You want a Ribeye but your kids want chicken tenders? They've got you covered. The tender baskets are massive! Burgers? Did I mention those? Got a picky kid that doesn't like cheese? Get the Royale w/ cheese with no cheese and it's the perfect size. Shout out to a shareable shrimp basket, excellent cold subs, a variety of hot subs including a great cheese steak and a riff on a french dip. Go to Mess Hall and go often. This is the kind of great, affordable, and consistent spot an area like east Fayetteville needs.

The cafe is also a bakery, so the bread is made fresh. The cafe is small, so seating gets problematic when they're busy. Jada V. was our server, and she was helpful in recommending menu options. Tammy got the Chicken Salad Supreme, which she said was delicious, but I'll focus on my sandwich. I ordered the Reuben, which is made with their fresh rye bread, sauerkraut, thousand island dressing and Swiss cheese, and it's toasted. There are other dressing options, though. It comes with a small bag of Ruffles, a dill pickle and one of their house made oatmeal cookies. Everything was delicious and prepared well. Highly recommended!

Our server arrived promptly gave us our menus and glasses of water. When she brought us the waters and asked if we were ready to order, we asked about drinks so she gave us a drinks menu. She took our food order and told us she would be back once she put our food order in to get our drink order. I guess she forgot to come back for our drink order as the next time we saw a server was when our food came out. We ended up sticking with water. When it comes to ambiance the restaurant is warm and inviting with music playing at about the right level. As for the food the cucumber salsa, was well chilled, freshly prepared and fairly tasty. The tortilla chips were fresh and crispy. My wife chose the Birdseed Salad with a Chicken Chili. My wife said the dressing was good but as for visual appeal it was green, on green, on green. The chicken chili was good, tasty and served good and hot. Moving onto my Club sandwich on a croissant, there was plenty of meat and the croissant was really fresh but pretty small. It was served with a large side of tortilla chips. The tortilla chips were plain and came without any dip, salsa or shake on's. Even a little hot sauce would have been welcome. Overall the food was good, fresh and well prepared, it just lacked any Wow Factor or anything to make it craveable or make me want to drive out of my way or make a special trip to eat there again.
