We took three of our friends with us and we were all very happy with our meals. I got the special of the day, country fried steak with white gravy and a side of fried okra.

I don't think anyone could go wrong with trying Drew's.

Will come back on a Thursday to try their chicken fried steak (which they call "country fried steak"). Note: this is not a fancy place with fancy food. It's not pretending to be. Just a nice friendly local place to eat without breaking the bank. Today ordered lunch's to go. Tried their chili dog and Philly cheesesteak sandwich. Also had fries and fried pickles. Fries were great. Good size crinkle fries, nice portion. Not sure what I was hoping for with the fried pickles... just not something that is for me. The pickles came with ranch for dipping. Others seemed to like them. The Philly cheesesteak was very tasty. However, I really prefer that it would have been served on a hoagie roll instead of Texas toast. The chili dog was ok. Better than Pals but not as good as from Wienerschnitzel. (Which unfortunately is not available in this area.)

I had come in a bit early and the kitchen hadn't started up yet. They happily let me know it would be a few extra minutes. At no time was I made to feel like I was being a bother. The burger was a decent size cooked to perfection. Put together well with the fixins I requested. Toasted bun is always a nice touch. The fires were great, just the right amount of season, and cripsy outside with fluffy inside just like they should be. I would like to reiterate how personable and comforting the staff were. This is def a great place to go.

I was travelling to Kingsport for work and came across this quaint little joint. A lot of the…read morepeople I know locally didn't even know it was there although some had heard good things so we decided to try it out. Nothing fancy about this place but that adds to the charm. We went on a Tuesday evening and there was only a handful of patrons at the bar and a few tables. The bartender/waitress was very friendly and attentive. She had us find a seat and was quick to get drinks and appetizer orders. The menu had many interesting items including about 10 different hot dogs and 10-15 different burgers. The food came out quickly and overall was pretty good. We had deviled eggs with pimento cheese and fried banana peppers for an appetizer. Both were large and fed multiple people. The eggs were a little disappointing because they were just hard boiled eggs hollowed out with pimento cheese put in place of the yolk. Would have been more interesting to see how it could have been made with the yolk as well. The banana peppers were tasty with a good balance of sweet and crunchy. I had the burger with spicy goat cheese and the banana peppers. Overall the burger was delicious with many layers of flavor. It's a smash patty type burger with crisp edges and cooked well done. While my preference is a thicker juicy burger, this has lots of flavor to it and the unique combinations gave everyone something to try. My side was pickle fries and these were excellent. Some of the best fried pickles I've had. Overall a delicious meal for a very reasonable price.

It has a cool vibe with music and attentive servers. I love the mounts on the wall. We got here around 5:20 and people kept streaming in. We started with their chili cheese fries: they were really good. They bring out a homemade ranch that is also good. I'm a spice fan, and their chili wasn't spicy, but the chili was thick and really good. Beer selection is pretty good; lots of domestic beers and some on draft. The food was very good: their fried banana peppers and fried pickles are fantastic. I had their spicy burger without a bun (sorry, no pic) and loved it. Overall, we really liked our visit.

So this place kind of reminds me of the old show "Cheers" where everybody knows your name.

It took about 15-20 minutes to get a soda and another 15-20 minutes to get some chips. If you like going to a place that allows smoking, reeked of smoking inside and out and just a bar scene than maybe you might like it. But I wouldn't recommend going to eat here because you will be waiting quite some time. They had 2 dart boards. When we left, again, everyone stopped what they were doing that was sitting outside because apparently we stuck out like a sore thumb and watched us until we left. Not the most welcoming place to "outsiders".

Anyway, when we finally pulled into the parking lot, it was just about 10:50 a.m. local time. We walked to the front door and saw a hand-written sign stating that they'd be closing at 11, since they were short-staffed. We almost had a group meltdown, haha. But, they welcomed us in and sat us at a booth with no hesitation. My dad and husband both ordered the "Hungry Man" breakfast platter ($9), and my mom and I both ordered the Two Egg breakfasts ($8), plus we all got coffee. For my plate, I got eggs scrambled with cheese, plus bacon and the gravy biscuits. Mom got hers with scrambled eggs (no cheese), and the same sides. My hubs got sausage (theirs are patties), gravy biscuits, two eggs over-medium and grits. My dad got bacon, grits, eggs over-hard, house potatoes with onions and a side of grits. The food was fresh and filling, and quite tasty. The biscuits - which were the one thing we all wanted - were fluffy and smothered in their southern gravy, which was more savory than I expected...if that makes sense. We all really liked the flavor. The final bill, after taxes and tips, was just under $40, for all four of us. Not a bad deal for a quick and tasty meal.

We grabbed a booth (you can seat yourself when you go in). Make sure you go in through the ENTER door. We started with waters while we looked over the menu. The waters were 32 oz to go cups! It's been 10 days since our visit and I think I'm still sipping on that water. It was a LOT of water. Our order consisted of a two hot dogs, onion rings, milkshakes, and a hot caramel cake. The hot dogs were good. Not great, but good. The onion rings were very nearly burnt. Probably just a touch too crispy. The milkshakes were ok. But one thing moved this review from a 3 to 4 star: the hot caramel cake. Holy cow. I know it was relatively simple but the yellow cake cupcake, in a bowl filled to the brim with hot caramel sauce, and a tower of vanilla soft serve....YUM! I'd come back here just for that. The service was hit or miss depending on who stopped by the table. All in all, I'd return but I'd try a burger and get a hot caramel cake AND a hot fudge cake.
