"Really nice for American food such as a cheese-covered burger and sloppy Joes. Very competitive price point as well. Really impressed with the quality especially for the first day, am looking forward to going again."
Said a delighted customer…
"Brand new in Hanley decided to go in on a whim. Fast and friendly service, with a fantastic selection of burgers, dirty fries and sides. Highly recommend the Freaky Friday dirty fries, and to sit in and eat as the music choices are fantastic as well. The only drawback is that I don't live closer to it"
