    Small place. Amazingly clean with great service. Fast hot food made to order. Hand packed hamburger patties cooked well. Onion ring are crispy and good also.

    Single and fries

    A fabulous burger. Perfect burger to bun ratio that allows you to taste the meat. Olive burger with sauce is even better. This burger never disappoints. Always friendly and fast service . Step back in time and eat at this lunch counter.

    Double Cheeseburger Deluxe

    Ordered a double cheeseburger deluxe, very good. I wouldn't say it was amazing but a very good burger. $11 wasn't bad. The building is pretty cramped, only seating is at a wrap around counter. Also have seating outside.

    Good old time burger joint in business since 1927. I was visiting from out of town and stopped here because I ate here as a kid. It was as good as I remembered from my last visit 50 years ago! Onion rings were wonderful! My. Diet Coke was ice cold!

    Bacon cheeseburger

    Jackson is my hometown and I come get a burger almost every time I visit my parents. There is limited seating (10ish seats) in the trailer and it is almost always full so lots of people get their food to go. There isn't a bathroom. The food is fairly inexpensive but it is cash only. The burger is crisped on the outside and tender on the inside & the bacon is fried up perfectly crispy but not crunchy. The buns are so soft and the whole thing just melts in your mouth. They cut it in half too which makes it more manageable to eat. Best burgers around!

    french fries and ketchup

    The service was great. The food was amazing. It was great only one thing could have made it better - diet coke.

    Current prices as of June 2024.

    Consistently great burgers. It's a cool place to sit at the burger bar and have a meal and chat with your neighbor.

    Love this place! Very unique. If you are bringing a big group, get takeout. It's tiny.

    Basically a gourmet burger that you design, made to order and always fresh. They may close early if they run out of meat

    This is a terrific ice cream spot in Downtown Jackson. The interior features fun decor appropriate…read morefor an ice cream parlor. The dining area is small but nicely arranged. The ice cream is outstanding. I highly recommend Nana's Banana Pudding ice cream. The Bourbon Trail ice cream was also very good. The Chicken Hoagie was tasty and the House Fries were great. The prices were fair and the counter service was fine. The only reason I did not give this a five-star rating is that it took more than half-an-hour to get our food to us after we ordered. With a hangry 3-year-old, that was a bit annoying. It was clear why this was the case as they were churning out to-go orders like crazy. We were so far back in the queue because there were so many on-line orders ahead of us. They're busier than they appear from the foot traffic. We finally had to order our ice cream (which came up quickly) to give our granddaughter something to eat because the sandwich and fries were taking so long to get to us. I am not sure what to suggest to them to rectify this, but I'm not inclined to go back on a busy weekend night unless I order ahead.

The staff was friendly and quick to acknowledge my presence and helped me maneuver through the menu. The food took a bit longer than I expected and I appreciated it because it was literally being cooked fresh. I could see the kitchen and the cooks making my food. Now the taste... delicious. The burgers were flavorful, the bun soft and fresh, the condiments were the right amount for me (I know this is subjective). The fries were cooked as I asked with a nice amount in the large. Try the moo moo sauce. It's different than expected yet familiar. I would definitely return! Sorry! I forgot to take pics of the food... next time!
