    Great food, good service, and a fun atmosphere! They offer both indoor and outdoor seating. Outside boasts a stage for live performances and room for outdoor play. I would recommend this place

    This place is the most kid friendly, dog friendly and parent friendly place with good food ever. Before we even got food, I was in shock. It's a fenced in outdoor eating place with a plot of grass and a hill for playing! Dog bowls and dog treats available! Cute tables everywhere and then we finally made it inside. The only waiter/bartender there (Poor guy was so busy, but killing it!). The inside is cute and has a great atmosphere. Lots of alcoholic drink options as well. All the food we got was perfect for what we needed! Corn dogs, burgers and sandwiches! And Zappa potato chips with french onion dip! Perfecto! I wish they had a place like this in New Orleans. We would go regularly. I love it!

    The bar is what attracts most people to The Tipping Point but they have a solid small menu as well. We went during the lunch hour for a quick bite to eat. They have a few different seating areas - a lounge, high top tables and chairs, a bar, and outdoors. We sat inside andwere one of four parties in the restaurant at the time so we had excellent service from the bartender. After getting our drinks, we ordered a burger and a flatbread. The smash burger can be customized and it comes with chips, slaw, or tots. I chose the tots and then upgraded them to a smaller portion of the tachos. We got a flatbread with pepperoni and bacon. As we waited for our food, we enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and the three tv displays. The food was served hot and it was actually very good. I kept the burger toppings classic with cheese, spinach, tomatoes, and grilled onions. I liked that they toasted the hamburger bun and that they seasoned the burger. I even saw salt and pepper sprinkled on the tomatoes! This burger was simple but very satisfying. The tachos were advertised as having cheese, bacon bits, pickled jalapeños, and sour cream. We were told that the jalapeños were still being pickled but there was no mention of where the bacon was. The mostly cheesy tots topped with sour cream were a little softer than I thought they would be. They didn't have that great crunch on them and they needed some salt, which I'm assuming the bacon usually added. The flatbread was quickly devoured. This is a great spot in The Hampstead for food and drinks and to hangout. They offer live music on some nights and they have bottles of wine for purchase. The food here is very reasonably priced, which makes the value excellent.

    The Tipping Point is a bar and restaurant which serves regular bar food. I did not try any of the drinks the time that I visited. The ambiance is quite nice. It's pretty well lit for a bar and spacious with high ceilings. There's an outside area like a porch with a hill for kids to play on and it is also dog friendly. We came with a big group on a Thursday evening. Everyone in our group arrived at slightly different times and we split up and sat at two adjacent tables. My part of the large group arrived at around 6:30 and ordered maybe 10 minutes later. The waiters took our credit cards at the beginning which makes sense for a group our size and the fact that we were likely to pay individually. I rarely get too upset at long waits at restaurants and poor service. I know that big groups can get the kitchen slower - but I still did have a pretty negative experience given that the night was not busy at all at the restaurant, and that the food to prepare was very simple and didn't seem to need much prep time to make. Although one of our tables in the group sat down first, we got food much, much later that the table that arrived later. It actually took 40 minutes after I sat down to get my appetizer, which was right after the other table already finished their dessert. Several people in the group also got wrong orders. My own order did not get the onion topping that I asked for. Another person in the group waited 1 whole hour and 8 minutes after sitting down until he got his food. It shouldn't take more than an hour to make a sandwich. And he had to go back inside and ask the waiter if they forgot his food (they did forget to start making it until he asked). Onto the food - The food was just OK. It was not bad food, and it probably does go well with the drinks (that we didn't have). The frito pie was inexpensive and had a good taste, but the melted cheese was pretty dry and stringy. The chili dog I got had an odd choice of bun. While the bun was pretty soft, I thought it was too large in comparison to the hot dog. The chili dog chili could have used more kick or spicy flavor too. I didn't hate the food at the Tipping Point though, and the price was inexpensive. Really the main point was the very slow service that the restaurant should work on.

    What a dope spot! Great beers on tap and delicious food . Pretty hip on the inside with some board games. The outside has those German beer garden tables and plenty of seating. Live music and a kids hill to play on. Can't wait to make my way over here again!

    Please update your hours on Yelp. It's Tuesday at 1:54 PM and Yelp has you as open now. Sadly, you are not.

    Worst service ever. The server never came back to check on us. Was planning to get a dessert but that didn't happen. Never going back.

    Good place, love the apetizers. I agree with some of the reviewers that the music tends to be pretty loud for my taste. Overall 4/5.

    Does this place take reservations for a group of 30? (non private event)

    They do their best to take reservations of all sizes if you give them advance notice. I was present with a group of 20 and they had plenty of patio space to push more tables together.

    This is for the new location on Atlanta Highway…read more.. Let me start by saying that I understand that this is opening night at this location. I want to start with the good. The food was HOT when we received it. THAT'S IT!!! We arrived before 7pm. There was a small crowd but nothing that could not be easily handled. Upon our entrance, we were acknowledged by the bartender, Nick. My party of three found a little spot over in the corner. We waited and waited and waited for someone to come to assist us. Finally, our waitress came to get our drink orders. She introduced herself and took our orders. Food was slow to get to us. We never received the condiments that we ordered when we ordered our food. My friend placed another drink order and informed the waitress at that time that she had a to go order as well. Never received the drink. My friend had to go to the bar to order a drink for herself. The bartender, Nick, was very nice and attentive. Even with a full crowd at the bar. We are still waiting on the condiments even though we are finished with our food. My friend was finally able to place a to go order but hasn't received it yet. Prices have increased from the Bell Road location. I won't say that I won't be back. I understand the kinks have to be worked out so I will definitely give them another shot. But they have to improve on the service. It's terrible.

    So, the customer service was warm and friendly. The fried green tomatoes were on point and made all…read moreat the table smile. Now the salad needed some help. It gave vibes of hamburger toppings. Iceberg lettuce, dill pickle relish, and I did see a sliver of carrot and cabbage "see pic". The other 2 wings we tried were not so great.

    I stopped by Pies & Pints - Montgomery on a Saturday afternoon and ended up having a really solid…read moreexperience overall -- definitely a strong 4-star visit. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich and a plate of char-grilled hot wings. The sandwich was the highlight for me. The chicken was juicy and well-seasoned, with a nice char on the outside that gave it great flavor without being dry. The bun was fresh and held everything together without falling apart halfway through (which I always appreciate). It felt like a well-balanced, thoughtfully made sandwich rather than something rushed. The char-grilled hot wings were flavorful with a smoky finish from the grill. They had a good kick -- not overwhelmingly spicy, but enough heat to keep things interesting. A couple of them were slightly on the smaller side, but the taste definitely made up for it. The atmosphere was relaxed and lively without being too loud. Service was friendly and attentive, though we did wait a bit longer than expected for our food during a busy stretch. Nothing dramatic, just noticeable. Overall, it's a place I'd happily return to -- good food, good vibe, and consistent quality. A strong 4 stars from me.

There are some great beer options that you can level up with nitro. The pizza selections were somewhat overwhelming because there were so many familiar choices and I had a hard time picking one, but I opted for the chicken Gouda, which was a top tier choice. Plenty of chunks of chicken, with a smooth sauce, and nice crust. I ate the entire pizza because I could not get enough. The decor was very whimsical with their elephant logos throughout. Overall, good choice for a Friday night or anytime you need some good grub.
