    Burger and sweet tato fries
    Tiff H.

    The spot is great for social gatherings and events! (Clearly). I had the smokehouse burger with sweet potato fries and was a bit disappointed. The burger was hella dense and cooked well done. The bread was stale. There was just this one soft tall onion ring. The server asked if I wanted a dipping sauce like it was something normal, but didn't mention it was going to cost extra. Both the burger and sweet potato fries came out room temperature (fries were also soft). Idk if it was because it's holiday season and the place was buzzing but, food and service wise, it was meh. I would go here for the socializing and the games. Pool, mini bowling, and golf?? Pretty unique experience for Danville. I'd go back to try the food again because everyone else has said they've really enjoyed it but that definitely was not my reality this time around.

    Well I visited this place for the first time because I knew one my favorite acoustic duo artists (Carolina Grit) were playing there. The place is pretty cool, the bartenders are beyond amazing! The service was great, very attentive. I had dinner prior to going there but the food looked delicious too. The place is spacious, clean and w plenty of parking space. People danced the night away listening to the live music. I know I'll go back again this Summer

    What a great place! The high ceilings, white washed brick, tobacco leaf counter tops and lively ambiance make this a destination! Grant took care of us and makes a delicious spicy Bloody Mary. He was all over the place taking orders, serving food and making drinks. We can't wait to come back for lunch. They have a full service bar, simulation golf and after 4:00 - a bowling alley and pool!

    We were hiking local trails and happened to find this bar & grill. They have it all! Good food, fun atmosphere, and friendly staff. I had the shrimp taco and my boyfriend had the margarita pizza. The taco was fabulous but the pizza was a lil bland. Apparently, they used a pasta sauce so nothing special. We had the bang bang shrimp as well. They have bowling, pool tables, and golf simulator that can be rented by the hour. Great place to have a party!

    .25 for onion.

    They keep your change when you pay your bill. I was told they round up. It's wrong to keep someone's money because you don't want to give back change. Maybe factor in the tax so the total will be an even amount. They're making a killing on taking peoples money. They also charge 25 cents for onions and 25 cents extra for pickles.

    My wife took me to Applebee's for my birthday for lunch. I found that they had a very good variety…read moreof food on the menu. Their alcoholic beverage menu also provided a good and varied selection, both in a good price range. The service was very good. When the dish that I ordered arrived, I was amazed to see the generous portions. But more important was that my food was fresh and it was delicious! And this is not my first visit. I should have posted a review long before now. There was music playing at just the right volume, unlike some places that think blasting music helps you digest your food. But what I found really pleasing was the wonderful variety of the styles of music, all of them soothing, and all of them creating, what was for me, a perfect dining atmosphere. | Why this establishment has been stuck with low ratings and reviews is a complete mystery to me, and very undeserved. I recommend that you try them and see. I think you will be satisfied.

    We decided to give this Applebee's another shot (even though we haven't had the best luck at this…read morelocation) because my kids love their chicken tenders--and I was really craving a solid burger. Unfortunately, this was another disappointing takeout experience. First thing: I don't recommend ordering through their website. There's no place to add special requests (condiments, extra toppings, etc.), which is a big deal when you're ordering burgers. Ordering through DoorDash was also a no-go because the pricing was way higher (I'm not paying around $20 for a basic burger). If you're set on getting food from here, I'd honestly recommend calling the restaurant directly so you can confirm details and make requests. Here's what we ordered: * Classic bacon cheeseburger (requested pink) with fries * Mushroom Swiss burger (requested pink) with fries * 2 kids chicken tender meals (one with applesauce, one with fries) + apple juice * Triple Chocolate Meltdown * Extra side of fries Total was around $67, which is a lot for takeout--especially when the food misses the mark. Timing was fine on paper: ordered at 3:38, ready time said 3:58. I arrived at 3:55. But even after checking the order before leaving, I didn't realize how bad the temperature issue was until we got home--because somehow the fries were already ice cold right out of the gate. I'm not overly picky with takeout, but cold fries immediately is a rough start. Burgers My wife's Mushroom Swiss looked like it had been cut to check the temperature, which I appreciate in theory--but it was still overcooked. The bottom bun was completely soggy and basically fell apart, so it wasn't even something you could pick up and eat like a burger. She did say the flavor combo was good (mushrooms, Swiss, and sauce), but the patty was dry and the texture just wasn't enjoyable. If you order this, I'd honestly suggest getting the sauce on the side to avoid the bun turning into mush. My Classic Bacon Cheeseburger was also a letdown. I ordered it pink, and it was nowhere close--fully cooked through, dry, and it had that hard seared/crusty exterior that just screams "overdone." I also tried to customize it (no tomato, extra onions, extra pickles). The pickles were an upcharge and you get three pickles... and the "extra" onion (also an upcharge) didn't look extra at all. The one bright spot: the bacon was actually the best part--nice smoky flavor and tasted fresh. Kids Meals The chicken tenders are what they are--standard pre-made tenders--but my kids genuinely enjoy them, so that part is fine. What wasn't fine: their meals were ice cold too, and the portion of fries in the kids meal was honestly tiny. Thank goodness I ordered an extra side of fries to share. Also, we found out they were out of apple juice, so we switched to chocolate milk (the little bottles). Not the end of the world, but it's another small thing that adds up when everything else is already off. Dessert The Triple Chocolate Meltdown was the highlight. My wife really liked it, and I did appreciate that the ice cream came in a separate container (smart for takeout). That said, it was a small scoop for the price, so it felt a little overpriced--but at least it tasted good. Overall For the price, this was a miss. I understand takeout isn't going to be perfect, and burgers can continue cooking a bit in transit--but these were overcooked, dry, and not enjoyable, and the cold fries/kids meals were the final straw. When you're paying $17+ per burger, I expect better consistency from a major chain. If you're going here strictly because your kids love the tenders, I get it--but if you're hoping for a satisfying burger night, I'd suggest looking elsewhere. (Photos included--forgot to snap one of the dessert.) And I forgot to mention, when walking inside to get my food, there was a terrible smell. I'm not sure if it was someone or something , but it was almost unbearable.
