This place makes DoorDash and uber drivers fill up customers drinks. Drivers are NOT required to wash hands and forcing drivers to pour drinks is disrespectful and disgusting! I’ve seen some nasty drivers touching the inside of cups and their mouths with their fingers. The college girl behind the counter refused to fill the drinks because she said that she can’t “leave the counter.” I will be reporting them.

This place is a local institution for a reason.
Delicious, simple burgers cooked to perfection, enjoyed on a patio overlooking the hustle and bustle of Franklin St.
As a vegetarian married to someone who's gluten free, it's rare we both like the same burger place. Yet, you can find us here at least once a month, splitting fries with garlic aioli, and enjoying a burger as the world passes by.

We had a good experience at Al’s. The burger is served the way a burger should be served. I got the classic. Mine was a touch overcooked. I said medium and got something closer to ‘well’. However, the quality of the meat was enough to overcome that issue. The tots and sweet potato fries were both decent. There were plenty of people working behind the counter but I may argue that overall service was on the slower side. I got a shake right away but it took at least another 20 minutes for the food to appear. Maybe that’s the cook to order delay, who knows. Overall, a very solid burger, fun atmosphere, and friendly place that I would recommend. Also, it’s a fair value which these days is getting harder and harder to find in these here parts.

Great food and cool atmosphere. Check it out if you get the chance!
Good food. I was able to have chicken instead of burger, which made me very happy. Good taste. French fries with the rosemary was a nice addition. Hubby had a burger and was happy. It was cooked well but not over done. Absolutely worth the trip.
Best burger in Carolina! Great outdoor areas with a cool bar too!

Always such a wonderful experience, and I particularly appreciate how careful they are with my dairy and gluten allergies! So lucky to have this gem in our area!
