| - Going by Yelp reviews, we stopped on a Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. Well, folks, I read all of these reviews and I have to tell you that while the Duke's hamburger is definitely different, it certainly is not the best hamburger I've ever had. For starters it came to us much too quickly, proof that it was not cooked to order as any hamburger worth it's salt would be. It is not served on a plate but wrapped and placed in front of you like a fast food drive-in. It is also quite messy with the slaw and chili so if you wished to try eating it with a knife and fork, sorry not an option. As other reviewers have noted the French fries are so ho-hum that chips would be a better choice. No lemonade available, so no Arnold Palmer...a rare occurrence. Warning, the restrooms are outside and don't have a sink. When I asked at the counter if there was some place to wash my hands I was directed to a sink in the seating area, right next to a couple having a meal. So, think of it, I have just used the toilet and have to wait until I get into the food area before I can wash my hands. How many door knobs, etc. have I, and others touched between there and here? Lastly, there are signs everywhere asking you to please silence cell phones. Don't make the mistake I did by trying to listen to something on my iPad. They think that's a cell phone, too. And this is a place with so much background noise from air conditioning units that we had to move once just to hear one another speak. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive...the best part of the experience. Bottom line, I don't recommend spending any time off of 74 to find it. Leave it to the locals.
