I know there's great debate in TX vs NC BBQ - I stand by NC BBQ through and through. So while I was…read morein Monroe, I had to stop for some. My best friend took me here with high accolades for the food already, so I was pretty stoked. My fiancé and I got the burnt ends and pulled pork. Listen, the burnt ends were moist, flavorful, and even though I was stuffed I just had to finish it. The beans were nice and sweet. The cornbread buttery. And of course I had to get my fried okra, my favorite southern food. They didn't skimp out on portions. The restaurant was ambient and the servers on standby whenever we needed anything. The tables are stacked with different types of sauces for you to try, so you'll get the flavor you're looking for and more. I can't wait to go back down for another visit and try more stuff!

My friend loves down the street and she recommended bowling at this location. Visited on a Saturday…read moreat 7pm and was not full at all. The entrance leads you right into the bar area first, then towards the left is the entrance to bowling. Paying for bowling is CASH ONLY and on Friday-Saturdays its $20 per person for an hour. They do have an ATM. If you order food or drinks at the bar, you can pay with card. They are open until 10:30pm on saturday but they do turn down the lights and make it "cosmic". Honestly we had a great time! We usually go to Bowlero for bowling and to be honest, we would prefer to come here than one of the bigger bowling places. Even though this is a small bowling location, there was plenty of spaces and lanes open and did not have to wait at all. It was a nice crowd but not crowded at all. Food and drinks were quick and easy to access. Ordered a side of fried and honey hot chicken quesadilla. Pretty tasty and no complaints. Fries were very crispy and warm which were delicious! Overall, if you're in Monroe, this is the spot to go. Lot less crowds but still plenty of fun and good times to have.

Best bowling alley anywhere! Bowling by the hour (cash only) and great food which is rare for a…read morebowling alley. They have a bar that is connected to the bowling alley. We reserved 2 lanes for 9 people (4 adults and 5 kids) and we had a great 2 hours of bowling, chicken wings and drinks. They were quick to replenish drinks and they had cosmic bowling for the New Years Eve celebration. Family friendly and good music. I highly recommend as opposed to the places closer to CLT that are much pricier with not as good of food. Worth the trip to Monroe. Cheers to 2025!

I heard about Hathaway's years ago and we just finished at the farmers market and my wife said, "Do…read moreyou want to go get a bucket of chicken and I remembered Hathaway's. We all got excited to have fired chicken and biscuits for Sunday lunch. As hungry as I was, my wife talked me out of the 18 piece dinner. We got 13 pieces with 8 biscuits and 3 sides- Mac n cheese, Cole slaw and potato salad. It took about 4 minutes for them to get our food together and we were out! The girl who handed me my food chased me down in the parking lot for the container of Mac n cheese: much appreciated! Headed back to the house on a short ride to enjoy our meal....... We enjoyed our first meal from Hathaways on the porch. Definitely will be my place when the family is craving "a bucket of chicken". Thanks.

Hathaways never disappoints. It's a staple in Monroe and if you want some chicken and sides you…read morecan't beat it. The chicken tenders are large and there are plenty of choices for sides. You can get tea in gallons and dressings like ranch which for my family is a must. It's a great place to feed a lot of folks because they can handle large orders easily and they have a great system for processing them. The dining area is small but there are seats in the back.

I tend to like hot/sweet combos so the spicy mango seemed like a good choice. I was spot on! I wanted extra crispy - really get turned off by soggy chicken skin - with the spicy mango sauce. The wings were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. (Sorry forgot to take a picture). Plus my husband ordered a side salad f fries for each of us. He would have been smarter with one order because the order of fries is enormous!! Think 5Guys big! The order was ready when he arrived at the restaurant and he said that the young lady behind the counter was very sweet.

The service was a 10/10, and a huge shoutout to Quan for making the experience even better. Quan was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed from start to finish. If you're looking for a flavorful chicken sandwich and excellent service, I definitely recommend the Kickin Chicken Sandwich at Buffalo Wild Wings.

Not from a customer- but from someone who was applying to become an employee…read more I wish I would have read the reviews and taken into account the busted parking lot with no painted parking spaces or lines before I went in for an interview. Waiting 15+ minutes for a manager every visit when there's zero (and I mean 0) customers is ridiculous and quite honestly, not respectful of my time. Throughout a few different interviews, all at different times (11, 2, 4ish) and different days; the business stays basically empty. Even during a Friday night rush, I'd barely call it a "busy night." I was also informed I had to start a specific day due to (specifically told from the manager) certain employees wouldn't train me the correct way. That's extremely unprofessional. All of your employees should be properly trained to conduct their jobs correctly and not give off incorrect information to new hires. With all this (and more) in mind, I ended up not returning to work here. I can imagine the business stays empty for various other reasons, but I recommend just going to any better location or even a different wing place. (For work and for food)

Sweet potato - tastes like a sweet potatoes pie without the crust, but with walnuts added. BBQ beans - baked beans need meat..... remember that. There was also a succulent taste of Sweet bbq sauce mixed in. Hush puppies - eat them while they are hot. Reminds me of sweet cornbread bread that has been fried. I had the Chopped pork with vintage sauce. Thumbs up. The Chopped brisket with vinegar sauce was good. I liked it better when I added a spicy BBQ sauce to it. The Ribs, the ribs, the ribs..... tender to the bite and passed the fall off bones test. The meat had a Smokey flavor but was in desperate need of BBQ sauce.

I'd already started enjoying the wings before I remembered to take a picture. There was a short wait as quite a few people had take out orders as I did. I looked the variety of flavors.

I don't even know where to start with East Coast Wings + Grill, but if you're into watching time…read morecrawl while your will to live slowly fades, this might be your spot. We walked in to a nearly empty restaurant -- literally TWO tables and somehow still managed to experience the slowest service known to mankind. It took forever to get something as basic as a refill, and a solid 45 minutes for 20 wings. Not 200. Not some complicated order. Just wings. At a wings place. The food? Fine. Completely average. Definitely not worth the wait or the growing suspicion that the entire staff shares a single brain cell. But the real highlight? The bill. Or should I say... bills. Our total was around $50. Cool. I hand over my card, thinking we're finally escaping. She brings it back suddenly it's $100. I check my bank account, and sure enough, I've been charged wrong. Then, just to keep things exciting, there's ANOTHER charge for $56 floating around. I don't know if she was trying to pull a fast one on me but I wasn't impressed. When I pointed it out, I didn't get urgency, accountability, or even basic competence -- just a casual "it might go back into your account... if not, you can come talk to a manager." I live an hour and a half away! Oh, perfect. Let me just take a casual 3-hour round trip to fix your mistake. For context: I'm a server too. I get it. Mistakes happen. But this wasn't a mistake, this was a full blown circus. This young lady should NOT be a waitress!! I was still kind and smiling and still tipped but I will NEVER go back. Slow service, questionable billing, and zero sense of responsibility. If you value your time, money, or sanity, do yourself a favor and go literally anywhere else. I am still waiting on my money.

WATER & BATHROOM…read more Mac's promotes itself as a community-minded restaurant, but I am very disappointed they continue to not serve complimentary drinking water and it is not available--even when purchasing a meal. A simple glass of water is a basic customer courtesy, especially for children, seniors, and people with medical needs. If water is no longer provided, what's NEXT --charging customers to use the RESTROOM? Community values should be reflected not only through fundraisers and public events, but also in how every customer is treated at the table. I sincerely hope Mac's reconsiders this policy. Thanks , Long Time Customer
