I'm so glad we stumbled upon Hot Off The Presses while passing through on our way to…read moreMinneapolis--this place is an absolute gem. We were just here a few weeks ago and I am so bummed to see they permanently closed!! We came during lunch and took advantage of their weekday lunch combo (Tues-Fri, 11am-2pm), which includes soup and a half grilled cheese. You can choose from the OG, Kick in the Cheese, or Fancy grilled cheese, plus either tomato basil bisque or the soup of the day. Honestly? A dream setup. I ordered the tomato basil bisque with a half OG grilled cheese, and wow... just wow. The soup was rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced, and the grilled cheese delivered that classic, beautiful cheese pull moment you hope for (and rarely actually get). The cheese had the perfect amount of sharpness and subtle bitterness, balancing everything out so well without being overwhelming.. I seriously could go for one right now! Every bite was comforting and delicious, and I immediately wished I had ordered a full OG sandwich because it was that good. The combo was mouth‑watering, satisfying, and wildly exceeded expectations for a quick lunch stop.

The food came out hot and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. This is gourmet sandwiches on a budget! We got there right when they opened and stayed to eat our meal. There were at least 8 people who came in to order while we were there. I can tell it's a lunch favorite. We ordered Grilled Cheese of the Month Quesabirria and it was fantastic I would say it just needed more Consomé. We also ordered their Cuban sandwich and it was really good! This place is a classic hole in the wall but it was very clean!

As its name implies, it has a very definitive western motive and open dining concept. Parking is on the front street, and is ample. The service was very attentive and intuitive. We shared their chicken tacos, see pic. As you can see these tacos were plentiful. There were tons of chicken strips which were mildly seasoned. They kinda hid the ample amount of chicken under the crisp lettuce and diced tomatoes. There were plenty of sauces on the table for personalized seasoning. The soft taco shells held everything together well. We then shared their Chicken Enchiladas. As you can see in my pic, there are 3 enchiladas. The chicken was tender and very mildly seasoned. The tortillas held up well to the queso (cheese) sauce. The queso sauce was very thick. As you can see it was a white cheese and with minimal flavoring. On the far left is a small bowl with salsa, guac, sour cream and cilantro. These all aid with tuning in the flavor of the queso sauce to your tastes. The refried beans and rice were okay.

It doesn't look like much on the outside. But it was clean on the inside and the owner is super nice. He's the owner, the bartender, the waiter, the cook, and the cashier! The beer is ice cold and locals tell me "in the summer it's often 'slushy' it's so cold!" The tenderloin was hot, crispy and flavorful. The thickness is just right and it's big enough for two buns - which by the way was toasted! And it comes with lettuce, tomato, pickles and red onion. So, don't let the looks of the outside scare you away. If you're passing through Millersburg give it a try!

Service was quite slow this time, but it seemed to be a new staff member learning the ropes. We took ours to go but it's a nice experience inside. Overall, good prices, great quality and generous portions for what you get!
