The plain and simple of it is that it's simply just plain good. Try the lima bean soup!

Lived here almost 2 years before trying this place, then ate here twice in the same week. I think it might be the best double cheeseburger and fries I have ever had. My wife loved the onion rings. This is our new go to place! One addition would make this place totally awesome and that would be milkshakes to go along with this wonderful food. Rick and Karen Murrayville, NC.

The food was fresh and great. My only disappointment is it was cash only. I understand credit card fees are ridiculous but maybe offer it as a option but having to pay for the fees. The place is small and had to cram into a seat, I'm also a bigger guy. I will be back but better prepared with cash and finding a better seat. The food was well worth it!

Parking: Not many spots available and difficult to turn into location.

CASH ONLY!!!! We really liked Salt Works. We got there just as breakfast needed, which we will be going back for breakfast one day, and the lunch menu was pretty basic. Hotdogs, hamburgers, chicken, etc. We got the BLT which was good and the fried bologna sandwich was also was good. Plenty of French fries came with both. Service was on top of refills and food came out fast and hot. Will definitely be going back.
