Definitely not a fancy place. Have driven past this place for years and never stopped until the other day. Was there for breakfast, not their strong point. It's primarily a bar open in morning to generate moire revenue I think. Menu is very small, not complicated. Everything is prepared to order. One young lady running show which only has bar seating. Food was ok. This is one of those old time business' on back road in Garner which has been there for 50 years. Talked to a customer that has been frequenting location for 35+years. I've been there, done it, and check it off my list. read more

It was fine. Stop asking me to write a review! It's a good local establishment where even a Yankee like me feels welcome

Very sketchy, uncomfortable vibe. I wasn't sure if I pulled up to the right place due to all the cars, dirt and gravel parking area. Looked more like a house or biker club meeting area. Walked in to this lovely flag and unwelcoming stares, like what Is she doing here? No seriously, a older man at the end of the bar yelled, "Don't worry, you're safe," as everyone else laughed. Really? Stood there for about 2 mins before even being greeted just for me to tell them I had a call in order that clearly hadn't been started yet even though I called about 20 min prior. A part of me wanted to turn around and leave right then. But I said no, some of the best food I've had came from a whole in a wall, I'm not going to be like that.. should've listened to my gut. Left smelling like a years worth of cigarette smoke and completely bland wings and onion rings. My experience was completely different than the reviews and I do not recommend nor will I return. read more

I love a good dive bar. And reminiscent of an old country store, White Oak Grill AND Lounge is the Holy Grail of that genre. White Oak has liquor--and food--and they take credit cards--three things most true dive bars don't have. The bar is bursting with old school, roadside honky tonk character. Their sign is a simple hand-painted piece of plywood. Parking is in a gravel lot (littered with a few beer cans) off the highway. And walking into the bar with a screen door slamming behind me just feels right. Staff was friendly and the food was really good. We had mushroom/jalapeno pizza and fried okra because we're healthy like that. I was surprised to see the bartender/cook making the pizza dough fresh with each order. The pizza was awesome. White Oak has pool tables, outdoor seating, and a stage for karaoke and live music (I was there seeing a friend's blue grass band). And you can get fried dough, boiled peanuts, and Jello shots. It's better than the State Fair! The full menu features country cookin' and typical bar fare. I can't wait to stop in for breakfast--and it's nice to know I can have a shot of whiskey with my egg sandwich if I'm so inclined. Thank you White Oak. There aren't many places like you left in this trendy world. read more

This place ain't fancy but it's a great place to get a good meal. Don't let the decor (or lack thereof) scare you off. This is a friendly neighborhood bar with some of the best food in Garner. The burgers are excellent. The pizza is the best we've had in Garner (they make their own dough in-house), and the onion rings are among the best I've had anywhere. They don't usually have microbrews, they don't serve craft cocktails (they do mix a good margarita, though) and they certainly don't have artisanal ice (or artisanal anything), but if you're looking for a tasty bite or a cold beer in a friendly atmosphere, this is the place. read more

Little hole in the wall grill & lounge dont let the appearance fool you. Staff friendly breakfast plate was awesome.

Went for the very first time yesterday, July 2, 2018, ordered a hamburger, wasn't fresh meat, had been frozen and didn't look right, tasted very bland. A burger at McDonald's would have been much better. My son ordered a steak and cheese sub, he said the meat tasted old, only decent thing was the frozen seasoned fries, it was just okay. Saw a dead roach on the floor beside our table. The menu was filthy with the plastic over it, used my hand sanitizer for sure. It's a definite dive if you don't mind going to a dirty looking place outside and inside but we won't be going back. read more

Definitely not what I was expecting. The outside looks sketch, and the inside felt a bit that way too. But everyone there was super friendly and the food was surprisingly good. read more

So the "lounge" part was misleading. What you see when you pull up is a largish cinder block room sitting on a gravel driveway with cars scattered around (parking spaces aren't outlined here). I got a slightly sketchy vibe when we pulled up, my husband got it to. But it was 8 o'clock on a Friday night and we figured we should at least have one beer to give it a fair shake. 2 beers later I realized that I had completely misjudged the place! Sure it's is a little rough around the edges and it looks like the setting for a Dateline Murder Mystery but the people are friendly, the beer is cold and they serve hard alcohol! The night we were there was a karaoke night and what everyone lacked in talent they more than made up for in spirit. We had our beers, played some pool, met some folks and had an awesome night overall. It's worth mentioning though, this bar is not for everyone. This is a quintessential neighborhood dive-bar, there are no bells and whistles there are no frills and thrills. So if you're looking for a bare knuckles kind of place look no further! read more

What a great hidden gem of Garner! As soon as I arrived I was greeted warmly by the owner and staff. The owner gave me a complimentary jello shot and made me feel right at home! My boyfriend and I enjoyed the laid-back vibe and the karaoke was great! I loved that everyone just went with the flow and enjoyed belting out a few of my own favorite songs! They had a really great sounding system and the selection for music was the best I've seen. (I'm an avid karaoker) All in all, I really enjoyed myself and will definitely be back again soon to try some good ol bar food! I hear their pizza is amazing. Will report on that later :) Thanks guys, for making my first trip a good one :) read more

A wonderful little hole in the wall kinda place with great food an some really cold beers and a full bar!!!!

I've been to this establishment many times and even though it doesn't look like much and some people may even be afraid to go inside you can't beat the atmosphere, the people are very friendly and welcoming. The food is great and reasonably priced, good burgers & fry's, great pizza, they have a large menu to choose from. Karaoke night is a lot of fun with a lot of regulars doing there thing. read more

I went in to try the bacon cheeseburger , Man it was amazing. They didn't use a Microwave, they actually used a frying pan and it tasted great.The locals like Tater and Turnage are always there and always welcome you with a cold one in there hand. Great place to get a cold glass of tea or whatever you desire. People and super friendly and food is excellent. will start going more often read more

Absolutely the best damn pizza and wings we have found since moving to North Carolina. Always ice cold beverages to enjoy while waiting for the food to be made. The building may not look like much; but the food and the people are fantastic. read more

This is not 4.5 star dining. It is a bar that happens to serve food but don't expect a memorable meal. The price is not expensive though, perhaps a place to consider if you'd like a beer with your burger and fries and don't mind a dive bar atmosphere. read more

Great little place to get some awesome pizza. And I LOVE the White Oak fries. French fries with brown gravy! LOVE!! We'll be back :)
