Reviews
"When in the area, PP is a must. Burgers are fricking amazing. Especially with Merkts cheese. They are juicy, saucy, and delicious. French fries are also a must have. We also tried the Italian beef. I would recommend it with cheese though."
"The food was good, the parking was bad. That's the short version of this review if you only want to read 2 lines. This business has little parking and the parking available is very tight and hard to pull into. I have a pickup and had to basically make my own spot. Nevertheless I had heard good things about the food so I wanted to try it out. I did not know that there was no indoor dining or even a warm waiting area. When I walked up to the area to order I did see that initially there had been a set up for that. At some point they changed it, likely during covid etc. So we ordered, then waited in the freezing cold for the food. I will say that they had a buzzer so you were able to wait in your car if you wanted. I ordered 1 of their special burgers, the 3 layer fries, and an oreo milk shake. The food is basically what you would expect from a sonic like burger establishment. The burger was nice, plenty juicy and filled with flavor. The fries were OK. The milkshake was middle of the road. The food was good enough that I would order there again. However, not unless it was a whole lot warmer. There was no where to dine so I had to either eat in my truck or find a place to take it to eat. That's fine for a pick up order. If I'm on a lunch break or something and I want to sit somewhere I think I'd be better off going to a business that at least has a small area for that. The cashier seemed indifferent when we were ordering. Not necessarily rude though. I got the feeling that this business was an in town favorite kind of place, and the attitude of some of the staff reflected that. I'm not from in town and I also wasn't that impressed. Good food, but not sit and freeze for 10 minutes good food."
"My son and I both got a burger and fries. It was very good, excellent bacon, nice thick patties. It seemed busy but we didn’t have to wait too long. We ate outside on a picnic table and enjoyed the smell of the burgers cooking inside!"
"Given that I’m in the area and knowing that this place is popular on social media I can’t resist trying it out at first glance I know the infrastructure is older and not particularly outstanding based on my experience these businesses delivery quality food When I arrived there was a huge queue of people waiting to place an order thankfully I had called in ahead of time so I could avoid the mine and walk straight to the window dedicated to pick up orders the food wasn’t ready upon my arrival so I waited and observed the establishment I noticed due to limited space the business made an effort to accommodate by providing table for outdoor dining then the staffs waved at me to notify me that the food is ready so I left right away When I got home I instantly devoured the burger the first bite was incredible because I tasted the char grill patty the savory thick layer of merkts cheddar and the caramelized onion im glad they packed extra napkins because it was messy/juicy that I saw layer of burger juice on the bottom of the styrofoam container how erotic the fries were simple but good nothing to explain just crispy crinkle fries mildly salted I regret for not ordering a side of cheese to compliment with the fries It was sad as I took the last bite of the burger not knowing when I could get my hand on the juicy burger again and I’m glad I stopped by for lunch I have to say this is the best burger I ever had the end"
