Great place for burgers, sandwiches, and sides. They also have Boba tea. The pulled pork sandwich is bangs, though you should call ahead to see if they have it. Had a small issue with one dish and the owner made it right, delivered a new one, and also threw in something extra. You can tell a lot of love goes into the food and the business. When I have a craving for a burger or something a little different, I’ll definitely order. Their burgers are real hand formed and actually have flavor. I am a chef myself and always cook for friends and family, so if you like flavorful food it’s worth checking out! Not my best pics down below but I was hungry and just wanted to eat! Lol

The owner Bryan is such a nice guy and a fantastic chef. I stopped in for some of the vegan options and everything was incredibly delicious!! Definitely worth a drive over. The fried food is crispy, light and wonderful. The photo is vodka fries with cheese and pepperoni. Everything vegan, so yummy. The banana pudding dessert is SO GOOD. Don’t miss it. It's a cute, spacious place near the beach.

Parked out front and after trying 3 parking meters which were all broken the owner (Bryan) came out and let us know that they were in fact all out of service, saw we had our puppy with us, and proceeded to bring us out a table & chairs with a big smile and warm welcome to the sidewalk front so we wouldn't have to leave him in the car while we ate! (No worries-cool breezy fall day so he would have napped after a beach run/not have melted in the car) Gluten Free options is an understatement!!! Segregated gluten free fryer so french fries ARE gluten free! Gluten free deep fried Oreos? Wait-DOUBLE STUFF?! SERIOUSLY!!! The chef/owner Bryan truly understands cross contamination and allergies so those of you who are like me-hesitant-go knowing he GETS IT!!! Amazing taste combinations-I had THE HAMPTON prepared gluten free-chicken cheese steak w/mushrooms, carmelized onion, cream sauce, provolone @ parmesan. Bubble tea was great (had mango) and are available for self prep! The menu has great selections-tough to pick!!! Keep an open mind as this is an older beachfront building that is a work in progress! Cool tee-shirts available for pre-order to send him to a special Chef competition in Dallas so if you like to support up and coming struggling businesses check out the website for more info/contact. #bestkeptsecretofthebayshore Also-crayons and paper tablecloth top so you can get your doodle on, board games AND NINTENDO SWITCH so bring your vid games! LGBTQ friendly. PEOPLE friendly. Did I mention great food?!
