Applewood Smoke Burger is a burger counter tucked away inside the back of Park Place Pub in…read moreHighland Park. It's a different menu and different register from park place pub. There's no signage outside for applewood so I consider it an almost burger speakeasy! The service here is pretty fast - we ordered a little after 5pm on a Sunday and got our food and finished it all before 6pm! The burgers we got were so flavorful and delicious and we were are blown away by this hidden gem!! My applewood burger was incredible and the maple sauce was delightful. I'm so glad we discovered this place and I would go back!!

November 2025: lightly edited realtime notes:…read more - This is like a pop-up restaurant that is inside of a bar. - Buffalo wings, Nashville hot wings. The wings are cooked perfectly. The sauce is weak. The fact that the wings are crispy and fried and 100% dead-on makes up for the weak sauce. All things considered, 4.2. Could be 4.6 to 4.8 with decent sauce. In retrospect, having tasted the sauce as a side (below) I think they tossed the wings in the sauce when they were too hot, kind of denatured things, and got too much oil in it. The sauce is actually very good, and these wings could have been a notch or two better if they had let them cool for just a hot second before tossing them. These wings have the potential to be some of the very best in the city. - Onion rings here are just absolutely perfect. Think of the best a Burger King onion ring could be, and these are four notches up from that. - The french fries are OK. - The side of buffalo sauce that they brought us from the kitchen is so much better than how the wings came out; I am presuming that the wings were tossed in the sauce too hot, and not enough. These guys actually have a great buffalo sauce. - I got the Smashburger. Cheese, lettuce, pickles and their special sauce. No substitutions permitted. This burger is excellent and exactly what I wanted. 10 of 10, would totally order again. - One of our group got the signature applewood burger."It's delicious!" - Another got the farmhouse burger and seems to be completely tickled with it. "It's really good. How can you go wrong with bacon and egg on a burger?" Unfortunately, restaurant was out of the cheese sauce tonight. We observed that the cheese sauce would've made it "fire." - J got the Cajun burger. "Awesome. Very good!" He wishes he would've asked them to add bacon to it.

We sat at the bar and since this was the first time I was there we got menus and a drink menu. Unfortunately the drink menu is kind of useless since it's just a picture with colors, not descriptions of the drinks. I got a Cajun burger and fries and everything tasted great. My fiancée got a sandwich and he enjoyed it as well. Everything was great but then the people across from us got there food and it had mold on it, so then I started wondering if i had any issues and didn't realize. I didn't end up sick so I'm assuming I'm in the clear, just something you don't want to hear after you ate. Overall I'll go again.

Felt a bit like an outsider since I wasn't a regular. The fish was cooked perfectly. Fries were standards frozen bag. After a few minutes after getting my meal trying to get tartar, I got up and snagged some from the other side of the bar. Just felt a bit unwelcome as they had time to converse with the regulars...just sort of ruined the experience as I heard nothing but amazing things. Kind of took away from how good the fish was cooked. Hard to become a regular living so close if you feel unwelcome when new to the staff.

I ordered my wings on doordash & I was so disappointed that they only included one sauce for a large amount of wings especially after I asked for 2 sauces. Second, the sauce that was one of their best sellers, Talk of Beaver Falls, was just meh. The wings arrived hot, yet were missing the crunch factor & they were dry as hell. I wouldn't recommend BSB.

The Coal Mine is a nice neighborhood spot on RT 88 with friendly staff, and plentiful parking.
