| - Meh. Cute unpretentious menu and concept. Friendly staff. Outdoor seating. Generous portions. Excellent beer selection, with everything separated into helpful categories like "Hoppy Beers" and "Stout Beers". Their fluffy corn bread side tastes like happiness.
So with so much to recommend it, why only 3 out of 5 stars? Because this restaurant has everything going for it but the food. My ribs and pulled pork were dry and tasteless. The coleslaw, mashed potatoes and fries were bland. Nothing was terrible, but it tasted like it had been left out under heat lamps in a cafeteria, definitely nothing worth going out of your way for.
That said, if you come here on a sunny day, order some drinks and a side of their corn bread (truly some of the best I've ever had) you will have a great time. But with better alternatives so nearby, the Double Wide would not be my first choice for a meal.
For a more inspired dining experience, go a few blocks further down the south side and hit Fatheads. Fatheads also offers a casual style, great beer selection, some outdoor seating and huge indulgent portions but with freshly prepared flavor explosions that will blow your mind!
