Love their Chuck wagon sandwich and onion ringsBest burgers in the county as wellParking: When they are busy it can be tough to find a spot to park. Can steal a spot in the neighbors parking lot but be polite about it

Great location, just right off the main road. You can pull up and park or dine in, it's your choice. we pulled in and ordered off the main board from our vehicle. Staff were very friendly during our visit. The food portions are definitely Belly filling!!

Pulled up to car hop parking at 5:25pm no one has came to take my order at 5:45. I gave them benefit of doubt however when the old owners had this they were always prompt. I been patient but when parking spot states "car hop only" that is what I expect. Oh well as good as the food used to be I guess I will take my business elsewhere. Car hop never even came out to acknowledged that I was here. Very very disappointed for lack of service.

A very nostalgic step back in time. One of the areas best kept secrets.

Small’s should be one of the Top 10 tourist destinations in Tennessee for their burgers!!! I wish I could take this restaurant with me back to California.

This is the BEST burgers in Athens Hands down! 1st time trying, and I'm definitely not disappointed. They are so busy, our wait was an hour long but well worth it. Will be my go-to for now on.

Getting served by a car hop at Small’s was a blast from the past. The hamburger was a quintessential American hamburger. And the opportunity for people watching is superb.Parking: Parking at Small’s is a crucial part of the visit. It’s a drive-in!

Best burgers in town, but you really cannot go wrong with anything on the menu. You can eat inside at a table or have your order taken at your car and your food brought out to you to eat there or take it with you. Just be aware, it can get very crowded at times so be prepared for a short wait.
