I’ve never written a review before, but I felt the need to write one after the meal I had today. Best burger and fries I’ve had in a long time in the metro Detroit area (and I’ve tried all the best spots) The burger just by itself was insane and the French fries took it to another notch. Perfectly crisp and seasoned. And the fact that the buns are made fresh from the local bakery that I just happen to go to monthly for my steaks made me even more satisfied with my meal. I’m sure the milkshakes are great too, I’ve just never had a sweet tooth. Hats off to whomever is running this place. HIGHLY underrated.

Small diner style restaurant with a cool shaped bar around the inside. Nice older feel with a friendly staff. My wife and I got a shake each and split a sandwich, with fries. Everything tastes great, but the prices were outrageous. 2 shakes and a sandwich meal cost us roughly $40, with a standard 20%tip. I think it was $15 for a chicken sandwich, $6 for fries, and $8 for each shake. Definitely a cute little meal, but can't justify the price. Would recommend maybe splitting a shake and getting food at one of the other bars nearby.

So we ended up here by accident and it was a wonderful accident indeed as our original choice was closed. The service was pleasant and worth the little wait we had. Our server checked on us several times to make sure we had everything. The food was outstanding. My husband truly enjoyed the "Brown Cow" shake. My banana shake was so fresh tasting and creamy. The burgers were juicy and well flavored. The onion rings definitely held up and I loved that the onion stayed in the batter after a bite. Will definitely be back and bring our kiddo as they have dairy free shake options as well.

It was first time and I will definitely be back. The food was fresh and good. The onion rings are huge! They have shakes, malts, and floats. The owner came out and greeted us and told us the history of the restaurant which has been open 70 years!

What a great place to visit. Hamburgers were off the hook, chicken tenders are amazing, and the malts were insane. Our server, Grace, was the best!!!
