Locals and tourists driving through love the burgers. From the Mushroom Swiss Burger and Crab Cake Burger to the Bacon Cheeseburger, you see here. There’s something for everyone, and don’t forget to add a side of crinkle-cut fries. You can also make any burger vegan by substituting it for a Vegan Impossible Burger patty.

The sandwiches are also a good choice. May we suggest the Pastrami & Swiss? This sandwich is made with house-made brisket pastrami, swiss, and sauerkraut on toasted marble rye with house-made Thousand Island dressing. Yum!

If you’re with a group, try the pizzas. Choose the size and toppings, or go with a special like the homemade Spinach Artichoke Dip pizza. For an additional cost, you can also make the crust gluten-free.

If their extensive mainstay options aren’t enough, the restaurant always has rotating specials to keep things fresh. The spicy dry-rubbed smoked baby back ribs with its signature sweet BBQ sauce are a favorite every time it’s on the menu. This special comes with a crunchy broccoli salad, BBQ baked beans, and brown sugar cornbread. Come hungry because you will definitely leave full.
