This is a little Mom & Pop sandwich shop. Be patient when you order, everything is made fresh when you order. We ordered burgers ~ my husbands favorite is the Jackson Burger. These are the best burgers we have ever had!! Shoestring fries are great too!

Lunch line is always long. Place is always hopping - make sure you have your order ready for them by the time you get to the counter. Had a cheese steak on my last visit. Wasn't impressed. Stick to the burgers.

They are only open during lunch hours and plan to stand in line for 5-10 minutes. But the wait is worth it!!
