I order the chicken crunch burger… what a delight, crunch was best I ever had, home made slaw was so tasty. Fries were the prefect crisp and the portion size was great. Good price for the food you receive. My father in law got the two piece cod. Homemade tartar sauce was to die for. And I am not a tartar sauce girl.

Came here for a birthday celebration for the family, and the atmosphere was so great. Out door seating and our server was helpful with dish accommodations. Loved their salmon salad and burgers, would come again
