Had a hamburger and fries. Loved it!! Everybody is very friendly. Food is brought out quickly and hot. Wish we would have been in town longer so we could go again. Will go again when we come back next year.

Certainly nowhere in Norfolk, Va....the only place that comes close here is another family owned place called Doumar's. Famous for BBQ and waffle cones!... More

Spankies was so much fun. I had the pastrami ruben and it was to die for. The kids had footlong hotdogs and cheese fries. Ben the owner was the friendliest fastest talking person I met. Wish there was a spankies in Bertie!!!
