The first time was going and the food 😋 was delicious and hot. We sat on the patio and enjoyed live music. Will definitely come back. My meal was fish and shrimp with fries and coleslaw. They also had $2.99 margaritas. I enjoyed the mango margarita with sugar on the rim.
Great place to get a wonderful meal. The collard greens are to die for.
Good food ,great service.
We all ordered hamburgers and they were perfect. The fried pickles were perfection! I don't think I've ever had a better fried pickle. The service was wonderful and the attention to detail was great even though our server was working multiple tables! We enjoyed their very nice beer selection
Great little burger spot with an awesome atmosphere and amazing food!! Visited for a volleyball tournament and it didn't disappoint. Will definitely visit again if in the area!
Food was mediocre at best, it use to be delicious. It seems greasy imo, maybe even like the oil needed changed in the fryers. Service was good. Place is always crowded which is why the 4 star on atmosphere.
Always an enjoyable visit. 100% on their health department scores for 10 years running!
i had the black & blue, my bf had the american. it was soo good!! we’ve drove passed this place for years and finally stopped in today. can’t wait to come again!
First time going and the food was great. I will be going back
Fantastic buggers. Incredible onion rings. Huge fish and chips. No one went home hungry. Great place. If you're in Knoxville, you have to try them. I get the CP burger and can't finish it.

Fantastic food. I love their fried fish and macaroni & cheese. Nice staff. A bit too loud inside for my liking, but great otherwise. Will certainly return.
Food is always amazing, especially my favorite, the shrimp dinner! Staff is awesome and the atmosphere is always upbeat and fun!
Burger and fried mushroom were fantastic
Placed an order on 03/27/2025 for pick up. Lady was efficient and friendly enough. Was given the total and advised it would be ready in 15 minutes. This is what we ordered.
Black and Blue (blackened) with Onion Rings
Add Bacon
Burger Well Done
(Not Received as Ordered: Medium Well instead of Well Done still had pink- Bun hard enough to build a wall | For Blackened not very well seasoned - They do not skimp on the onion rings however)
Fish Sandwich with Southern Slaw
Tarter Sauce requested on side
(Received as ordered - The fish would have been better with a different bun, as was not proportionate and bun was hard and dry- Coleslaw Great but very small in portion size)
Bean Salad
(Received as Ordered - ok, nothing to write home about- Small in portion size)
Pros -
Fast service- (wish they had taken a bit more time on my burger lol).
Tomatoes and onions were fresh
Coleslaw was great
Cons -
Prices need to be updated on website. (Not much of an increase in price but enough to a bit irritating)
Bread is dry, hard and bland
Burgers should be cooked as ordered or don't offer it as an option.
Burgers should be seasoned as ordered or removed from the description.
Over all not great but not terrible. I would say mediocre. Given the price point, I can get mediocre for less elsewhere.
Total price paid including small pick up tip, $39.15.
For the price you pay the food is lacking. They try to use upscale ingredients but overall it's bland. Drive a mile or so down the road and just hit cookout or five guys.
