Great place to grab a burger. The menu offers several house specialties and meats (including bison) or you can build your own. Portions are good sized for the price. Much better alternative to the chain burger joints!

Came here from NC to play in a local volleyball tournament and decided to stop by for dinner. Food was exceptional, greatly priced, and absolutely amazing customer service. The manager was so kind and made sure we had everything we needed. This place is awesome!!! Highly recommend giving it a try!

One of the best burger joints in town. Lots of options on the menu to personalize your burger. I've been here several times now and have enjoyed my food every time. Fries and tots are particularly good when toppings are added.
