“My best friend and I live in Hayesville NC. We travel over the mountain just to eat here. We have never been disappointed in the food, service, etc. Every sandwich we have tried is great. We have a habit of testing Ruebins. Gazebo is the best that we have eaten. The soups of my. are fantastic as well. Today we we had a slice of Coconut Custard pie. Wow just Wow. it was amazing. I highly recommend anyone to eat there. April we love you. you are fantastic inside and out. Thank you for making our lunch great to the whole crew. we will definitely get photos next visit. see you all soon ❤️❤️“

“Was in the Franklin North Carolina area to pick up a Facebook Marketplace purchase LoL and randomly stopped by here to grab some food... Man, this had to be one of the better tasting Philly Cheese Steaks I've ever tasted... Cook to perfection ? packed with flavor.. With just the right about of meat and veggies ? and the onion rings were good as well?.. Next time I'm in the area we will be stopping by for another... Oh and I'm not a drinker (Almost 3 years sober.. Go me LoL ?) But the brewery was pretty chill... We kicked it on the patio and played some corn hole.. Cool merch as well ?

Kid-friendliness: At first we didn't know it was a brewery. After we pulled in, we were kind of hesitant about taking our three year old, but we sat outside and played games .. Shortly after there was like seven other small children there so they had fun...“

“Let me tell you. They have the best southern fried chicken this side of my mama’s chicken. Like that saying in the movie Fried Green Tomatoes…..”you got a good scald on that chicken”. And that my friends is a compliment, a southern compliment at that. Close your eyes and you’d swear you were sitting at your mama’s table eating her fried chicken and it doesn’t get better than that!!!!!“
