Very good food service was good better than average sports bar. BBQ shrimp was pretty good. Would be better if they used head on shrimp New Orleans style

The food here is so good, my lord. I wish I could try the other dishes I saw on other tables. The Elvis burger was executed perfectly. I love every aspect of the ingredients that made it up. Fries are decent. I saw nachos, pasta, breads across other peoples tables and I was salivating just seeing it. Will be back to try other things.

Very good food with patio seating. Delicious fried green tomatoes and Blackberry Tea. Pet friendly on patio.

So they close at 10 pm and we showed up road weary and hungry. They couldn't have been any nicer. We ordered and ate as quick as we could while they told us it was not a problem As they had to cleanup anyway. We had a couple cocktails. had a drink called the funky monkey which was amazing so I had another. lol We ordered A bunless burger cooked to order and locally sourced beef. Ribeye with cheese grits and spinach. Cooked to order and very tasty. The pork chop which was like 3 inches thick and wonderfully cooked with whipped sweet potatoes and coke slaw. I had the Elvis burger. Amazing. Burger with let, Tom , pickles, peanut butter, bacon and grilled banana. OMG. Soo good! Shoestring hand cut French fries came with it and well.... They were great! There was outdoor seating. Restaurant seating and a bar area. Family style restaurant. Once again. Staff was great! If I'm in the area def would go back.

Pretty good food and great service. I lived here for a couple years but I never got the chance to try this place out. I got the Hot Honey Fried Chicken sandwich with fries and a side of coleslaw. I was really impressed by the size of my sandwich. The fried chicken was huge! The size of the fried chicken was about the size of my hand lol. That was really impressive. The chicken was crispy and tasty. On first bite, I wished that I had a special "hot chicken" sauce for the sandwich but as I got more into the burger I found it. I guess this is my preference but I really like sauce, so I wish the sandwich had more of that chicken sauce to compensate for the large piece. Fry size was interesting. They were skinny and smaller but I received a large portion. I liked them. Coleslaw was really good as well. For everything I got, I was impressed and I had leftovers. Service was friendly and nice. However I did ask for a hot water and when I got mine, it smelled and faintly tasted like burnt coffee so I didn't drink anymore. That's pretty much my only qualm with this place but I enjoyed it!

Stopping in on New Years' day after visiting family up in Tennessee. A surprise spot on the road that I'll definitely come back to whenever heading back this way. The ambiance is nice, spacious pub feel. There's plenty of seating and art displayed by local artists. Food has been a top notch experience. The wife and I snagged the fried devil eggs and split a bowl of the shrimp and crab bisque. Definitely get the bisque, it's creamy, thick, and delicious with large chunks of and shrimp. Pictures were not included because we finished them before we could. For entrees, I got a smokehouse burger with fries while the wife got the terayaki kebabs. For the burger, the bun is made in-house and you can tell by its quality. You can also mix and match sides for whatever dish you can pick. The sauteed spinach was a standout among the dishes. Dessert was their bread pudding and the picture was the original reason why we stopped in and it lived up to the hype. The house made caramel sauce was tasty and the pudding came out in that perfect blend of piping hot with an ice-cold scoop of vanilla. Like I mentioned above, a road trip winner.
