I've never had a bad meal here in 3 years. The fare is entirely homemade and the burgers are amazing, made with local beef right on the Kingston Peninsula.

I can't wait to return for another...

Second, they have an IPA by Locations named "JediPA, get it? It's great! The fried pickles are delicious! I recommend the Bacon Double cheeseburger. It is freakin' huge and super tasty from start to the finish, which was almost forty five minutes. I had to pace myself to finish it after the pickles, fries and rings! Third, the view is amazing!!
