“My favorite Burger in Town”

“It’s my favorite burger in town! I love going here with my 6yo. They are kind and caring staff, and they have toys and card games and coloring books to play with. Not to mention my kid likes their plain burger so much here that he usually finishes most of it before touching his fries! Win!“
