Traditional drive up restaurant with a knack for great food, always a family must-have when the whole family is in town.

I’ve been eating her for forty-plus years. Today is the day I officially call it quits. It has been gradually going downhill since Mr. Mark sold it and today it reached bottom in my opinion. They have very rude and unprofessional employees. I ordered lunch today and also ordered a pineapple milkshake. The employee exhaled very loudly like I was inconveniencing her by ordering a pineapple milkshake. I hate to tell y’all, but I do not have to spend my money here. The prices also don’t reflect the quality. I don’t know if the recipes are different or if they’ve modified them to make more profit, but it isn’t near as good as when Mr. Mark owned it. Thanks to your employees and your money-hungry ways, you’ve lost a long time customer.

Worst service I have ever had and the food sucks. This place was the best around and the new owner has destroyed it.

Y’all want a good, old-fashioned hot dog? The kind that makes a mess all over the place while you’re eating it? The kind of hot dog worth driving an hour for? A sloppy, greasy, juicy, mucked-up hawt dawg?Here’s your place!!!!

Ate here for the first time when I was in high school in 1990. Have loved it ever since. Sweet (not spicy) chili dogs, excellent burgers and chicken sandwiches. Wife likes the milkshakes. Would be nice if the picnic tables were washed off once in a while…. My only gripe. Can’t help the weather and for some reason the wind blows more here than anywhere else in Georgia. Great local place to eat.

I like the chili dogs even though the last time I went by it was Sunday and they were closed so I couldn't get any.

The food was great, but the employees were very unprofessional. Talking loud about their private lives, constantly on cellphones, would not answer phone so I could do a call in order, tried 3 times to call. It can't be owned by the same person, or they'd be appalled at the way their business is being run!

Monday September-25-2023 14:59I personally wasn't a fan. I don't understand the hype at all. The food is mediocre. Personally I think the place should be shut down.I've had better food from McDonald's of all places. The workers are lazy, and have bad attitudes. They walk around the establishment pretending to be busy. I literally watched the three workers stare at a customer coming through the drive through.The customer ended up driving off. The building is dilapidated, it almost looks abandoned. There were burnt black bits in my fries. The fries have zero flavor.The portions are incredibly small. Their ice cream machine was "broken". I personally think the workers were just being lazy, and didn't want to make it. There was only a tiny menu sign at the drive through window.The hamburger had zero flavor. The tomato on the burger was squishy. The lettuce on the burger was wilted. The hamburger patties were very small and flavorless.Not a hint of seasoning on anything. My husband and I asked for double patty burgers. We both received singles, but were charged for doubles. I didn't feel like dealing with the unpleasant employees.I decided to just eat the garbage because I was starving. Luckily, the prices are cheap so we didn't spend a fortune on this garbage. The ice is really good though. Those are the only good things I have to say about this place.This was my first time eating here. I'm not sure if I'd try this place again. More thank likely I wouldn't. Not my cup of tea.Vegetarian options: I didn't see any on the menu. There's no list of ingredients for their menu items.Dietary restrictions: If you have dietary restrictions, I would not recommend eating here. There are no lists of ingredients.Parking: There's a lot of parkingKid-friendliness: They have a kid's meal
