    a chili dog and onion rings

    This place is right off 25E right before the city of Pineville. It's like stepping back in time to a small diner. The place only has about 10 tables. Me and my family got the last table there was. It's also a drive-in though. So you can pull up and wait and they'll come and take your order from your car as well. Me and my husband had foot longs and they were pretty good. Nothing out of this world. Their onion rings were good and they had the basic crinkle cut French fries. Service was good. Sweet tea was good. We also grabbed some milkshakes on our way out. I had the butterscotch milkshake and it was delicious. Their larges are like a small at fast food chains, so keep that in mind. Everything was really cheap as well. The biggest thing to keep in mind is: THEY DO NOT ACCEPT DEBIT OR CREDIT CARDS. When we were there, a man had to drive to an ATM to pay for his meal.

    Great Double Cheeseburgers!

    Headed to a Smokies game, we chose to stop into SmashCity for a pregame burger…read more The service and burger came up quickly. I opted for the truffle smash and large fry. My buddy opted for the Spicy Smash. The burgers were mmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmm great, Juicy and the bun held up. Fries were fresh and would like to see maybe a topping or poutine option for them. Cool spot to get some AC and great burger before a Smokies game or a night in the old City.

    We already had 250 miles under our belt for the day. 4 more hours to home. I was sick of fast food…read moreand we were making good time so we decided to venture off the road, but just a little. SmashCity wasn't far off of the interstate, it had good ratings and although we'd been eating burgers and fries quite a bit on this roadtrip, a good burger and fries really sounded good. All of the reviews were right on - this was absolutely NOT fast food - it was fast, really fast, but the speed was just bonus. As we usually do, we split. We chose the Carolina BBQ smash. The burgers were juicy - if you're not careful, I guarantee you'll be wearing it. Two critiques, it definitely needed more sauce - I just added some of the SmashCity sauce from our fries and it worked but I really would have liked to have had more BBQ sauce. Second, the fried onions were quite burned. I pulled off most of them. The hand cut fries were piping hot, just the right amount of greasy and seasoned perfectly. Splitting the burger was a good call - I'd never have eaten the whole thing myself. The burger and fries were just over $20. When you consider a Big Mac meal at that clown place is $14, SmashCity is almost a bargain. Paul, the owner was like the energizer bunny - he was everywhere at once. Personality oozed from his pores. Make sure you tell him Sue said hi! (He won't remember me but just say hi anyway!) Now I wouldn't say SmashCity has the best burgers - that award goes to our friend Jerry. He makes a pretty mean smash burger on the blackstone. If you have an extra half hour, skip the fast food burger joints, get off that highway, and go let Paul fill your belly for the rest of your trip! You'll appreciate it!
