This is new drive thru/drive in restaurant on South Main Street in Sparta, NC…read more The menu offers a variety of sandwiches, burgers, and hotdogs. There is no dining room, only drive-through or curb service. Being a hotdog aficionado, I ordered the two hotdogs, fries, and drink special. This has the opportunity to be a great hotdog! However, because the business is new and very popular, these dogs were assembled in a hurry and were a bit sloppy. With a little more attention this dog would've been great. And I'm guessing that because they're new they just don't have their system worked out well enough to handle the crowd. So let's address the dog itself. The hotdog, an all beef Frank, was apparently cooked on the grill, which is a good thing. It was flavorful and a pretty good size dog by comparison to some. The bun was toasted, as it should be, on the grill and was just perfect. The dressings is where it started to fall apart. Mustard was flopped on one end, but not spread evenly over the dog, and really should be under the dog. The chili, what little there was of it, was pretty tasty. I just like my dogs with lots of chili. The slaw was sweet and crunchy as slaw should be, but it was also rather haphazardly spread over the dog. The onions were crisp and fresh. So all in all, this was a decent hotdog; however, with a little more time, just to touch more time, it could've been a great hotdog. The french fries were excellent. Cooked perfectly, right amount of salt, and served hot. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt being new and all and will try it again next time I'm in Sparta.

The downtown strip is worth a trip to walk around, shop, and dine. We decided to try out Muddy Creek this year and it was a winner! The inside is pretty big and has a live music vibe with a stage and lights. No music during lunch on this Saturday (of course), but it looked like a fun place to be in the evening for music. The inside has a bit of a cabin or lodge vibe. After perusing the menu my wife went for a chicken salad croissant and I picked a ham sandwich. Everything was great including the sweet and regular fries. The beer menu was limited, but they did have a local IPA on tap. The star of the show? The maple mustard! Yep. It was epic. So good I actually asked the waitress if I could buy some to go...and she made it happen. This stuff was great on the sweet potato fries!

First time visiting both the music hall and having dinner from the cafe…read more The band was Empire Strikes Brass, and they were excellent as always. We were seating at a high top table in the music hall for dinner. We had beer, then an appetizer, then dinner. Service was not terrible, but there were not enough servers working. We loved the buffalo cauliflower, but had to order extra sauce as some pieces were barely sauced. The ranch was good, seemed homemade. My jackfruit bbq sandwich with coleslaw was the winner at the table. Quinoa burger was okay, but very bland. The regular burger was fine, fries were also fine. We had a great time dancing in front of the stage to the band, after our server ghosted us. We will go back for a good band but might skip having dinner there.

Even though we went on a Wednesday night the place was still pretty busy! They do have somewhat limited parking. We were just passing through the area but had a great time here!

Their menu has grown from what I remember, but we were there for the smoked wings so we had a bit of tunnel vision. Everyone in our group ordered smoked wings.

I tried the lil wit rooster beer and it was *chefs kiss* perfect for a hot day before a float down the river. Service was improved from last visit too! We can't wait for our next trip up this way, and Creek Bottom is a big reason why!

So no glass was poured by server for a satisfactory nod. When he walked away we poured ourselves a bit and then tasted. It tasted like pure vinegar. I received no cooperation when speaking about the situation, only a "I just work here, and I doubt the owner will do anything for you." I brought over half a bottle home just so my husband could confirm the nastiness of it, which he did. My suspicion is that the wine I ordered was replaced by some horrible low cost wine that had gone bad. Will not repeat this mistake. Just stick with the water. Also, meat was cooked medium well, not medium and my co-diner had to ask for the black bean patty she ordered because it was missing from her sandwich.

You can order from a kiosk, the QR code at your table or Allison can help you. I had a bacon cheeseburger and my guys had burgers with seasoned fries. The food arrived very quickly and was cooked to perfection. Be warned: the seasoned fries are VERY seasoned fries. I snuck a few of my hubby's to taste but I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to eat an entire order of my own. I wish I had room for a shake because they looked incredible. Maybe next time!

We went to Trojan Patio a few weeks ago on a Saturday morning with a group of 5 (three adults, two…read morekids.) The atmosphere is more cramped than you'd expect from the outside, with limited seating options and a rather small inside area. There was some outside seating but it was very cold and windy the day we went and that was expectedly empty. We were able to cram the 5 of us into a booth (good thing kids are small!). Service was decent though understaffed, and our server was very friendly! Trojan Patio definitely meets expectations for a local breakfast diner. The grill is visible, and no, it doesn't look like strict cleanliness is the first priority (but let's be real, that adds flavor right?) The menu had many options, and adults and children alike were equally satisfied with our meals. The coffee was good and served quickly. Really my only complaint is around the cramped space, which I realize is hard for them to correct. It's a great local dive for breakfast and with more space, I can imagine they would thrive! We're rarely in Sparta, but would not hesitate to return next time we're up there.
