The burgers are always great here. Friendly staff and great service every time I've gone. Burgers are also massive, so don't get a double unless you've got an appetite the size of Bessemer

Excellent burgers, juicy, big hand patted real beef 💯 Wings are great as well.....and onion rings!!! Super popular little place. Locals love it, but others come from everywhere. They go there specifically for the burgers. Nothing fancy about it but good food, friendly and fast service. Go early they close at 2pm

I’ve heard about this place for years, but today the experience finally became a reality. Man, the bacon cheeseburger and fries were amazing. This place is a must-stop. If you pass it by, you’ll miss out on a fantastic burger.

Where do I start? It took me two years to get here, always forgetting they close after lunch. It was so worth the wait. The burgers are huge, fresh and fast. The ladies behind the counter were friendly and hilarious. This is a dying breed of restaurant. True Americana. Note, you can still smoke inside. It was like being back in my hometown spot in the early 90s.

Great food and friendly staff! They also carry Little Debbie snacks that I used to enjoy as a kid in the 70’s! Haven’t found them anywhere else.

You always have a fantastic meal here! The food and the service and the old-fashioned, country atmosphere is something you really have to experience. The only reason they don't get all 5's is that they allow smoking. There is not a smoking section, anyone can just smoke anywhere. That's very different than other places around here now. This is such a good food experience that you sort of can overlook the smoking, lol. They are located in an old gas station where they don't sell gas anymore but they do sell some great food and everything

Just an old country store. Very friendly staff and they are turning out the best burgers within 100 miles. I travel every where looking for good burgers and this is absolutely one of the best. Add bacon and jalapeños then thank me later.
