Foods usually ok. Has always been a little on the high side, but now the prices are even higher. We won't be back. Its cheaper to go to lagrange or newnan.

Food is expensive and nothing to write home about. I have never placed an online order that was ready when it was supposed to be, not once.

We’re lucky to have such a wonderful place in our little town. It would be nice to have a beer and a glass instead of a plastic cup.

I can't honestly speak about the food, what others had looked good. I can only assume it is good from the other reviews, and why we ventured there for our first time.

I'm in business, and I know running a business in a small town like Hogansville can be tough, both from staffing to revenue concerns. I hope this place does well, and if they are expanding maybe so.

Our food was delayed, about double the normal wait time. The waitress explained what happened, etc. she did fine with that. But that was it, nothing to help better the situation. While we waited, we saw a roach crawling around on the table top cover adjacent to us. I get it, these things can fly in when folks enter. Maybe that's all there is to it. The inside of the restaurant is better than I expected, someone had an artist touch. The floors need attention imo. I get they are old shop floors, but they are also chipped and cracked and porous. Even if sealed, they are hard to get clean. There was food on the floor throughout. The younger staff waited around a lot, but no one seemed to care about that stuff. It's an open kitchen, all good there and I love the concept, but you also are signing up for extra attention in that area. The walls and floor in that area don't look good at all.

We waited almost an hour, and left before our entree was ready. We had not planned on that long of a stay and ran out of time. I think a manager should be there at all times, and if one was you could t tell it.

I love pizza, and I'm not picky. I hope what I am saying in this review will give the owners actionable information on what our experience was.

The Hogansville location is AWFUL!! Cockroaches on the tables, no, I didn’t get a picture because I didn’t want to make a scene. We waited over 30 minutes for the first pizza. Nothing was ever said to us until she saw me looking at her and finally decided to come say something. She explained our pizza had torn in half in the oven and it would only take seven minutes to make a new one. We waited another 35 minutes and decided we had to leave after wasting over an hour there. The place was gross. I will NEVER eat here again and NEVER recommend it!!

Owners pay attention to your business, long time customer!

1. Fried Pickles - They went from having the best fried pickles to the worst. They tasted like grease, the pan was covered in grease. They smelled like grease. They almost made me throw up. The breading was thick, not the lite crispy version they are known for.

2. Craft Beer - They were out of both craft beers (Line Creek & Wild Leap)

3 Dumpster Smell - it’s obvious they dumped their floor wash water at the end of the patio 3’ from where we were setting - see photo. It smelled like an old dumpster. I don’t need to money to get the smell of dumpster as I eat!

I complained to our waitress, she said yes I’ve told them they be dumping it in the grass. At which I said “no, you shouldn’t be dumping it in the grass because that’s where the kids play, you should be dumping it into the sewer because it’s waste”. The smell was disgusting.

On top of that on two separate occasions, a small child went up to the puddle and was about to stomp in it. We told both no stay back from the water, one of the kids started crying. Little did he know we were doing him and his parents a huge favor.

This is basic stuff, train your staff. It takes time to build a reputation days to ruin it.

Kaci pike always takes good care of me and always stays on top of her tables and party’s to make sure they are taken care of.
