“My fiance and I stopped in last night for a quick bite and a little country music bingo. We ended up leaving having one of the most fun nights I can remember. The atmosphere is so friendly and welcoming, from the staff to the customers. We were only expecting to stay an hour but ended up staying most of the night. yall treated and made us feel like we'd been coming there forever. im sad we're leaving for our next contract but if we ever come through this area again, we will absolutely be back- i just wish we'd found yall sooner! Thank you for the yummy food, the wonderful southern hospitality, the endless laughs and amazing little memory we got to make on one of our last nights here!!! Tyler, I wish you and your crew much success, you have a great little spot and amazing people there!!! ❤️👌“

“Incredible experience at HipBurger!! Was welcomed by a beautiful and handsome man with a name tag reading “Beau”. As I approached the counter the large white male carefully explained the menu. It tickled my taste buds so much I ordered a large amount. As I was waiting on my order Beau proceeded to be very thorough in cleaning the dining room. He appeared to be cleansing the soda amenities and replenishing the straws and napkins. When my food was ready Beau lovingly brought my delicious food to the table. He was so loving handsome and kind. This beautiful man deserves a raise. Food was also incredibly good and cooked to perfection.
Will definitely be back very very soon!!“

There is a nice view of Lake Hartwell and an open air feel when the pass-through window is open. The food was exactly what we were looking for in a lunch spot (sandwiches, salads, bites, etc) and at a great price. I read reviews about the portions being generous and found that to be true. Definitely a spot we will visit again!“

“went june 17th at 630. The food was good. The staff, girls at order desk and server, were rude. They chose to play Big Block jinga with a male patron and stay on their phones instead of doing anything else. after several games of blocks slamming on the table and floor right behind us we asked them to please stop. the male said f' them. They stopped for a while but then started again and they found this funny. These were employees, not patrons. when my friend asked the server why didnt anyone ask if we needed anything or at least ask if everything was okay, her reply was "they weren't that kind of restaurant". this was after WE had to push 2 tables together, wipe the water from the rain off the tables and seats while the employees watched. And after we had spent over $200. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!!! I am not a "Karen " i just expect decent service for my money!!!!“
