    Mozzarella cheeseburger, cole slaw, onion rings.
    Hanna S.

    It's an ordinary burger and nothing special sides, but the small town atmosphere and ice cream here are a delight. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon on our way from St. Louis to Chicago. The (high school?) girls on the staff were cheerful and friendly. We got there right before the local little league team showed up to celebrate a big victory. We sat on the patio and chatted with strangers about our cat over a swirl soft serve cone. It was like a time travel experience to the era before chains.

    Perfectly smoked pulled pork sandwich.  Hot fresh breaded mushrooms

    I was there in Lexington for a street fair. I'm always looking for a good street vendor, but not much choice, so I went to a local establishment. Had an inside eating area and also an outdoor area with a walk-up order window, plenty of outdoor seating, some with umbrellas. The food was amazing. The pulled pork sandwich was perfectly smoked. Hot fresh breaded mushrooms and fried pickles. I would highly recommend it if you are in the area.

    Ice cream and sundaes!

    Great staff and delicious food. Burgers and Buffalo chicken sandwiches are our favorite items. Don't forget to grab an Ice cream or shake before you leave.

    Hand-breaded tenderloin sandwich.  Good, a little dry maybe, some mayo might have been nice. I'm not an expert on them, however.

    If you have a taste for ice cream, it's probably the place to go. Foodwise, it's not bad, but it didn't blow me away. Part of me wonders if one of us should have gotten a burger. I got a pork tenderloin sandwich, which was good (I wonder if it should have had mayo, though I won't rule out there might have been a bit, and it was just subtle). A child tried a BLT but he felt the bacon was too crispy, which... it's a bit of a style choice. My wife tried the fried shrimp and seemed to like it well enough. Another child had some of the shrimp and had some of the sides we ordered. Dessertwise, it was solid soft-serve based ice cream options. On a kid note, this may be the first place my children both didn't want to finish the small amount of macaroni and cheese side we had. And usually I fall to the designated cleanup-man in these situations and I passed too. I would recommend avoiding that particular option. On an accessibility note, we did have someone in a wheelchair, and while they were able to enter the place and sit, it didn't seem like they'd be able to use the bathroom. They have a sign that suggests it's accessible, and inside the bathroom it's kind of spacious, but there's only a huge step to get up there (tables are a bit tight too). Maybe someone would bring out a ramp to get up to that step if you needed to go to the bathroom, but all those extra hoops are kind of a negative. I was tempted to take a picture of it but figured there would be an interior shot already in there, but alas the one there already was from the perspective of the raised area.

    Pulled pork sandwich
    Jim W.

    The food is great and has a home cooked feel. What a great place to have a quick meal! Really enjoyed the fried chicken and the pulled pork was great too. There's nothing fancy here, but the food is good and the people are friendly and that works for me!

    Great food and service! I like the banana split it's a meal in itself. Sandwiches are good also!

    Classic Route 66 dining! I highly recommend the Swiss and mushroom burger with onion rings, and a root beer float

    Shake Shack is good food, not fast food. Small dining area, but offers carry out or pick up too. Good selection and serves ice cream treats.
