    Taking orders
    Mark W.

    Oh man. These guys are the #1 on Yelp in Yadkinville for a reason. Had the #1 Double Smashbirger house special with fries. Fantastic. I added jalepenos for a kick. Nice people. Met the owner...CJ,,,, Chef Jack!! Super nice and everyone made sure we were taken care of. Will eat here again next time I'm in town.

    Smash fries

    Ordered smash fries with no pickles Had pickles all over it It's also supposed to have grilled onions, it was covered in raw onions Also where is the cheese sauce that's supposed to be in them? Didn't get the burger sauce that was supposed to in the side either. Burger itself had good flavor just wish the rest was correct.

    This is a "medium" Banana pudding. It was awesome.

    Cozy restaurant, spectacular food. Fast service. Smash burgers, chili dogs, nashville hot chicken. Service was very friendly and speedy. Special of the day was 24 hour smoked brisket (given how good the rest of the food was I really wish I'd tried it). Fries were plentiful, natural cut with a nice seasoning blend. This place was on Main street, not too far from interstate exit 256. The next exit had a bunch of fast food standards; CJs blew them out of the water for similar prices. I asked the kid at the counter if the guy on the stool at the end was "CJ". He was; "Chef Jeff" was friendly and passionate about his food. One wall is dominated by an Anthony Bourdain quote and photo. Highly recommend! (I think there were 6-7 fourtops inside and 5-6 stools at the lunch counter). Lots of picnic tables outside and a drive up window.

    Alright this place was 10/10! Great food! Great environment and great customer service. We're in…read moreTraphill for a few days visiting families and were in the mood for burgers and hotdogs. This was the spot! I got a double cheeseburger and it was cooked perfectly medium rare. Just enough pink without being 'undercooked'. It was delicious. I also got a hot dog, a Carolina dog it was called. The coleslaw on top was crispy and delicious! The other ingredients on it were perfectly portioned so nothing overpowered the hotdog at all; everything on it complimented the dog so very well. My wife got a Cuban burrito and absolutely loved it! Our party got some other hotdogs and burgers; all happy campers! Along with the burritos they brought chips; which tasted homemade. They were crispy and fresh. Now this place is know for bringing some heat on their offerings; and we did not order anything hot or spicy like that. Maybe next time! Other than that - this place was a treat. For seven of us the tab was under 100$ - which lately - that is a bargain. (For comparison when we were on the road - we stopped at a WaffleHouse which brought the tab to $104; and their food is hot garbage). So in summary - a 10/10 dining experience which we'll be excited to come back to! I should have taken pictures; but, I think the ones online do a sufficient job. I'll take some photos next trip! Thank you FSBWB! We can't wait to come back!

For my lunch visits I had the Cheeseburger Club (excellent), the Chicken Livers (very nice, not the least overcooked), Country Style Steak, Hamburger Steak, and twice I chose Vegetable Plates - they have around 20 vegetables on the menu. I have tried pintos, stewed potatoes, collards, cabbage, fried okra, fried squash, mashed potatoes, corn, and cucumber salad.

It was a little hard to find because a road is closed in the vicinity but we were able to find it using the Waze app. The building itself is a large steel structure which has been nicely finished on both inside and out. We arrived about 4:30pm on a Saturday afternoon and were immediately greeted. We were taken to a booth and there were a couple of other tables seated. Immediately, you could tell this was a family run business with multiple generations pitching in. The young man who took our drink order was friendly and efficient. They have quite a few taps on the back wall but they were not in service and therefore were only offering cans and bottles. The menu says they currently have malfunctions with their cooler. We were given time to peruse the menu but were checked in on to ensure we didn't have questions. The menu offers burgers, fries and dogs but they are all elevated. There are some very creative and special combinations which as the asterisk notates on the menu some items are unable to be changed. We decided to start with the pub bucket, which offers steak fries along with melted cheddar cheese and ranch. My wife ordered the Elvis burger which features bourbon glazed apples, peanut butter, banana chutney and cheddar cheese. I chose the Godfather which features salami, pepperoni and mozzarella, and I chose to get the creamy garlic pesto on the side. My wife went to use the restroom and on her way back she reported that it was very clean and she happened to notice their recent state inspection certificate boasted an impressive 99.5! Our appetizer arrived in a timely manner and while it looked different (we are used to restaurants serving fries with cheese melted with a side of ranch) this had the fries topped with cheese and the ranch poured on top. But let me tell you they were delicious! Lots of heavenly cheddar cheese which was perfectly melted and gooey topped with delicious ranch dressing. Our burgers arrived shortly afterwards and are wrapped up when served. We began to unwrap and they also looked delicious. My wife immediately started eating hers while my camera ate first. My wife commented that her burger was absolutely delicious and said she was a bit iffy at first on the cheddar cheese being served with the sweet toppings but was happy to report she thought it worked perfectly and she was glad she didn't alter the burger. My burger was a double and huge! Since I had asked for the aoili on the side because I am not a mayo guy and while it was very good I should have asked for some ketchup to dip my burger in. I enjoyed it alot and saved half for later. My wife had her eye on the apple ring sundae. It is Granny Smith apple rings, sliced and cored and dipped in cinnamon sugar and deep fried, topped with vanilla ice cream and cool whip and drizzled with homemade caramel sauce. She ordered the half version which includes three rings. It took a little longer for the dessert to arrive because by this time they had started to get busy with a majority of the inside tables full as well as a few outdoor tables and several to go orders. The dessert arrived and my wife was happy to report it was also delicious. So glad we finally stopped in and we already have talked about our next time. It was apparent from our time there that they have a following and it is easy to see why. We did ask about onion rings and were told they plan to bring back again in the fall. Awesome service, creative menu, clean and family run. Plan your visit!

We were greeted walking in and told to sit where we liked, so we grabbed a table by a window and took a seat. Our server arrived a few minutes later with menus and took our drink orders. We ordered a basket of fried pickles and peppers to start and they arrived within about ten minutes. Golden brown batter fried, dill pickles and banana peppers, salty, tangy, crunchy, spicy, tasty. A good start. I opted for the dirty south burger, a chili cheddar cheese burger with slaw, jalepenos, and fried onions with mayo and mustard. A hearty burger, dripping chilli sauce, crunchy onions, and jalepenos. A good choice. An odd selection of drafts for a brewhouse? A lot of small craft signs on the wall but not on the board? Anyways, ordered a draft yuengling which was good. But I was looking for the local or even regional microbrew taps and they were not here. The appetizer was really good, the burger okay but the brew selection... sort of a let down 3.5 Stars rounded up for the kind staff all in all worth a stop and visit 01233

It is our absolute favorite spot for burgers. Like seriously, no other burger has been able to touch the flavor bomb in my mouth that I get at Barcelona. You order at the counter, they give you a number, and bring your food to your table. Everyone at the front counter is always cheery and welcoming and the wait for food is never long maybe five minutes. everything is fresh made right when you order it. the sweet potato fries are absolutely delicious. It's a low-key casual spot that has a beautiful outdoor seating in the back. Beautiful as in, very simplistic tables and chairs, but in a cute little garden like area that has sun shining in and plants. it's a cute little feel. Now these burgers, are delicious. We've only gotten the Barcelona burger and not tried other options because that one is so freaking good. The single has even more flavor than the double somehow because on the single patty, you can taste all of the additions: the Barcelona sauce, the tomato, the lettuce, and all of the flavors just explode. Their meat is tender. It's a thin patty and it's just delicious. If you're looking for a good, simple burger that's packed with flavor and you aren't looking for a gigantic hunk of meat, This is your spot.

Placing the order and having it brought to your table within 10 minutes of perfect for hungry kids! These are smash burgers and there's only a few to choose from. All come with one side. The fries are hand cut. Kids burgers are as big as the regular size so if you have small kids one is enough. My husband loves the chicken and it is really good. It's definitely marinaded and served with two sides from a half. It's a great space to bring scooters for the kids to ride and chalk to get that last little bit of energy out before bed. It's adjacent to the Coal Pits so lots of our kids hanging out in their scooty gangs.
