    Hummus plate
    Beth B.

    Super cute restaurant with friendly wait staff, yummy food, and vegan options! The chicken & Brie panini was so delicious, and my sister enjoyed a verified vegan burger. Would definitely return!

    Cheeseburger, Pimento Cheese Egg Rolls & sweet potato tots! You must stop in this cute little historic two story cafe. Well worth it!

    We were really excited to try Bank Street Cafe on a Saturday evening due to its yelp rating and a recommendation from a local. Unfortunately our experience was not great. It took 55 minutes for our food to arrive from the time we ordered. The manager eventually came over and talked to us after 45 minutes but only after we addressed the wait with our server. The manager apologized and gave us a discount. We ordered three burgers medium well and the veggie pasta. The burgers came out well done without the remoulade sauce described in the menu, although the flavor of the burgers was tasty. The veggie pasta tasted like it was literally olive oil, pasta, spinach and tomatoes and my husband remarked he could have made a better pasta. We came in with two children under 2 and had to hold them in our laps for the first 30 minutes because they did not have enough highchairs. Somewhere along the way our server changed and although our second server and hostess were very friendly it was not enough to ever want to return to Bank Street Cafe.

    It was a busy Friday night so a wait time was understandable. We waited about 20-30 minutes but then sat at our table for another 20 before a waitress came up to us. It wasn't her fault as they seemed pretty understaffed for the amount of customers. We had some appetizers and the buffalo chicken dip was good. The pimento cheese eggs rolls were just ok. It took quite a while to get our entrees but again, they were busy. I have never been so disappointed in a steak. I understand that a rib-eye is a more fatty cut but the picture shows how much was left on the plate. It also should have been medium and it was almost well done. I was also served a plain baked potato. Who eats a plain baked potato without even butter? I pointed it out to the waitress and she said she could bring me toppings. She brought them back but said they were out of sour cream. My daughter was served a stale wrap with her turkey wrap and my husbands chicken was so dry in his pasta he didn't finish 1/2 of it. All of these things individually aren't that big of a deal but all together it made for an extremely poor dining experience. First and last time coming here.

    Amaretto cheesecake. Yes, please!

    Excellent. Bank Street is a very laid back little place in downtown Griffin. My daughter and I enjoyed our evening starting with a bottle (don't judge - it was mommy and Mimi's night out!) of Entwine Pinot Grigio (mellow and easy on the palate) and the pimento cheese egg rolls. No worries if you don't like pimento cheese (me)...they taste nothing like it. Chicken and spicy melty-cheese fried goodness is what you get. (We ate them too fast to get a pic). The main courses consisted of the turkey wrap, which was just okay, and a side of pasta salad, which was made perfectly and very tasty. My daughter had the cheeseburger, cooked as ordered and enjoyed with fries. The perfect ending to the evening was the out-of-this-world amaretto cheesecake, which we took to-go, but couldn't resist a bite or two at the table with a dollop of whipped cream. All of this for a very easy on the wallet $60. Service was helpful and observant, with friendly chatter and refilling of our wine glasses and water when needed. A very nice evening and one I'll be willing to repeat when I return.

    Selected this place based on yelp reviews. I was not misled. This is an above average restaurant, in the small downtown of small Griffin. In a larger city, it'd be a 3 star place. Very casual and very friendly staff and management. However, the food was just average. A starter of panko battered stuffed peppers was too bready, and slightly overdone. Hot sauce went well. Trout was good. Food can be rich here, though the prices are very fair and reasonable. Total for 2 including wine was $60.

    Food was good, an interesting menu, and service was solid if a bit slow (which I prefer to being rushed). We'll be regulars here!

    We had a great lunch at the cafe. Small sign, kind of hard to find but worth it. Loved the building, food and service.

    We had very good service. The food is good. We had burgers and fries. Great fries!!!food. Nice…read moreclean restaurant area inside.

    Clearly this Whataburger is newly opened. When I parked to go in I was one of two customers inside…read morethe restaurant. Maybe two cars in the drive thru. There was tons of staff inside. It took three of them to take one order for one person. Nobody knew what they were doing. I paid almost $14 for a jalapeño cheeseburger large sized meal. They gave me my order number to place on my table and a large cup for my drink. It took them almost 15 minutes to get me my food and I had to walk up front to ask about it. Bear in mind there was only one other person in there in front of me. When I got my food, my hamburger was cold and my fries were not far behind that. I should've gone back and asked for a new hamburger, but I was so disgusted by the ignorance and lack of training of the staff that I just wanted to eat something and leave the restaurant. The restaurant itself was very very clean and as I said before, obviously very new. I stopped at the bathroom before I left. But for a new building and a bathroom that looked clean, the whole bathroom smelled like urine. I also have to say they added pickles to a hamburger that wasn't supposed to have pickles and I had to take them off before I ate my cold hamburger. I have eaten that several other Whataburger in different towns and had a good experience. This Whataburger in Griffin, Georgia, clearly has bad training and bad management and it is just opened. I will never be back to this Whataburger again. I had to repeat four times what I did not want on my hamburger. And that's with three of them standing there helping each other. Avoid this location of Whataburger at all costs.
