“it's a very fun place for a pool tournament or darts or just to gather around and have a couple of drinks with friends. there is a jukebox and it was banging music out all night we went in the evening and it was not too busy but as it approached later in the evening more and more people were gathering. there is an outdoor patio but they do not serve food. I was fairly surprised to have to be scanned for weapons before entering.. that made me a little leery... but I will be returning.“

“Steak Thyme is a hidden gem! I've known the family who owns this place for years and I'm kicking myself for not coming sooner. While they're famous for their cheesesteaks, they offer so much more. It's a fantastic sports bar with incredible food and service. We had a Bavarian pretzel that was the size of my head with two amazing dipping sauces, and we also tried fried banana peppers for the first time. They were incredible! Our server, Taner, was knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. She made great recommendations, including the addictive banana peppers we funneled! I even had a chance to chat with one of the owners, Jake. Turns out I know his older sister! (Another incredible human being) It's a family-owned business with a great atmosphere and even better food. I can't wait to come back and try more of their menu.“

Everything is delicious our favorites are the grippos and truffle Gouda burger with a worthy mention of their chicken tenders, but we haven't had anything that was bad. They also have amazing cocktails! We held our wedding rehearsal dinner here and they decorated the other side of the restaurant and had personalized menus. This is an amazing restaurant with amazing and caring staff! We've never had a bad experience! Bonus: their leftovers are just as good heated up in the air fryer!“

Love how it all stuck to the food. My waitress (Alisha R) was great. She took time to explain the difference in sauces and constantly checked on me to make sure I was ok. She made my experience amazing, and she deserves a raise! Hands down the best seafood I've had.“

There was occasionally 2 people in front of me at most. I never got ignored. We ordered food and it was good for what it was. I would not say let's go to Foggys for dinner. But I would say hay this band is playing or something else is happening there we can eat there rather than going to 2 places and I would be happy with it.“

“The special condiments like Thousand island dressing for the Rueben ( corned beef version) and the mustard for the Grilled cheese sandwich were pretty non existent. The reuben, you can ask for more dressing, and put it between the layers, but the grill cheese, unless im dipping the sandwich into mustard ( which was a great flavorful mustard) , you can't add any. Its melted to the bread. Adults do like grilled cheese, so if you think its probably a tween or teen, don't put much on assumption... ask the customer. In addition, the grilled cheese had the driest bread. Crispy, but... cracker like. Weird. Had to sip water or pop every bite.

Also, WHITEOUT PRICING THAT HAS CHANGED. The price on the menu was different than the bill. Not cool.

Nice clean bathrooms, great atmosphere, decent servers, fix the sandwich condiments, and please fix the menu pricing if you change it.

Thanks“

“Fun, fun, and more fun! I went to Bojangles to hear the Party Punch Band one Saturday evening. Any place that has GOOD live music is already a winner with me. $10 cover. Ample security. Grown folks crowd. Clean bathrooms. This place was larger than I expected and packed to the max! I don't think they were used to having such a large crowd, but the servers were handling it well. They were polite and attentive. All of the parking spaces were gone, so I ended up parking on the street next to the plaza where Bojangles resides. The band was a vibe, from start to finish! We stayed on the dance floor. You could also play pool or simulation video games if you weren't in a dancing mood. Limited seating was available.Note: This is a great place to drink, party, and play! I would definitely return.“
