| - This is a split review, in a way. I've eaten at Bad Daddy's at least ten times, and now I'm ready to review it.
This location is perfect. While Birkdale Village struggles with parking on a busy night, I've always found a spot with enough persistence. It's very convenient if you're looking for a good meal during your shopping trips or before a movie! My favorite is making this a date morning.
The price point is great. They've got a great variety of items on the menu for a burger joint, and the creativity doesn't disappoint! I would say for two people having a meal that is filling, $30 is very reasonable! (Two entrees, two drinks.) BONUS: breakfast is even more reasonable on prices! Did I mention they have specials every day of the week? $5 mimosas and bloody mary on Sat./Sun. (caution, they don't start serving those as soon as they open.)
The food is what you're curious about, right? I can't really say that I'm your burger specialist because I'm downright picky. Too thin, bleh, too thick, eh. Bad Daddy's is what I call just right. They are right on the money. My only gripe is that I have a hard time getting the whole thing in my mouth, but seriously, that's not a problem. They load the burger with a creative assortment of toppings (my favorite: Bad Ass Burger, true to its name!)
My favorite meal, however, is NOT a burger. It's their breakfast (say, what?! {in your best 80s voice, please}) I'm a huge fan of breakfast, and there are so few GOOD spots in Lake Norman for breakfast. This is one of those sneaky good places. Everything is under $10 (unless you're trying to be #extra and adding sides of jalapeño bacon that's super delish...do it, I dare you.) My two favorites are their That's Bananas (French toast, bananas, and caramel...say no more!) and also their Biscuits and Gravy which is my go-to comfort food breakfast. Fun fact: I exercise early Sunday mornings, so I need protein in the form of Bad Daddy's biscuits and gravy. They load up theirs Biscuits and Gravy with eggs made to order and a sausage patty. I won't stop recommending this place until someone outdoes this dish at this price point. They are total bad boys in regards to breakfast. They are doing it right! They also have a build your own omelet that is historically huge and cooked to perfection.
Their drink selection is also great. I appreciate the local selection of beer they carry (a must in the Lake Norman area with all the microbreweries around.) The coffee they serve at breakfast is also smooth and medium roast.
So my suggestion? Sure, try a burger. It's going to be great, but don't miss breakfast! You're going to love this place in the morning and the evening!
Pro tip: breakfast is only served on Saturdays and Sundays.
Service is always quick.
Constructive criticism: this restaurant smells really bad. I can't put my finger on it, but I think of old onion mixed with cleaning product and grease. It's a smell you get used to after sitting there long enough, but it's awful to walk into. In need of a deep clean?
