| - My expectations on the food front in a place like this are pretty minimal, so it was a real shock to have a bad experience.
First, I'll say the place looks great for sports events - screens everywhere ... big screens! I assume they'll carry every game you could hope for.
My issue was mainly with the bun. My burger's bun was dry / crumbly, such that when I picked up my burger, the bread broke. I can only imagine my particular bun was on the stale side, which for a place specializing in burgers seems to be a bit of a sin. But even had the bun been more moist, it seemed bland. I've had buns in many other places that just really 'pop'.
Also, the bread and the cheese had 'fused' on the top bun, so even though I ordered the garnish on the side (lettuce/tomato), I could not add it to the burger. It arrived at the table this way, suggesting it had maybe sat in the kitchen for some time before being delivered.
Also, since it was lunchtime, I asked for a (non-alcoholic) Ginger Ale or Ginger Beer. What I got was typical 'fountain' type drink, which was pretty undrinkable. With so many wonderful 'craft' ginger drinks available today, it's a surprise they only had the fountain junk. But I guess this place wants everyone to drink beer.
With Burger joints being so commonplace, I expected more.
