I can't believe no one has written a review on this chain for the RTP area! Best burgers I have had in decades - thick, juicy, tasteful, they even will serve it slightly pink in the middle. That is a rarity in itself. The endless basket of fries are the thick, chunky steak fries - HOT and fresh! I am not even a burger fan, but my car pulls into their parking lot when I drive by. The milkshakes are to die for - your spoon will stand up and salute you! Adults can get alcoholic beverages while the kids can get lemonades, sodas, you name it. Interesting retro style decoration, booths and tables, balloons. Downside is the noise... wow. Not sure if it is because it is the acoustics or the fact that it is always crowded, even midday. Menu also features starters, chicken, salads, wraps, soups, huge desserts - don't look for portion control, there is a definite lack of control in the size of these burger plates! Kids menus for those under 10. Attentive wait staff, but if they are busy you can be waiting for the attention. They advertise the fact that they have honest burgers - and I can't argue with that.
Pros: Burgers and fries are tops!
Cons: Noisy, always crowded, can get a little slow in service
