Fanny Ann's Saloon — Restaurant in Sacramento

Went here tonight, and I will tell you- that Jiffy Burger was the best damn burger I've ever had in my life. My only regret was not ordering another one. I've absolutely hated pickles all my life- but loved them on this burger. Which really says something about the cook who made it. That's one hell of a cook if they can get something that I find disgusting to taste amazing!!!

The man who took my order wasnt particularly nice, but I could see he cared. He came out and showed me the sauces and so forth. My guess is he just gets annoyed with stupid people.... then ends up treating the wrong people like crap. I say give him a break. Hes probably just tired.

I accidentally forgot to tell him the order was to go, and I recieved the biggest eye roll I've ever seen... LOL I was so intimidated by him I was scared to go back and order a drink. I dont think he knew I drove 7 hours and 45 minutes just to get a Jiffy Burger!!! Thats right, I live in San Diego!

But I hope he reads this review and hopefully treats future customers like they're welcome. People travel from all over just to get a Jiffy Burger. And I'll tell you it was worth the road trip!!!

I'm a well known researcher online and I heavily study conspiracy theories, and one of them has to do with Jiffy Peanut Butter- which by the way has never existed. At least not in this reality. Its always been "Jif" but millions of people remember it as Jiffy. Alot of people believe this has to do with time travel or living in a parallel universe. Research Mandela Effect

I find it very fasinating that a Restaurant would have a Logo that millions remember but never existed. Even I remember Jiffy as a kid- and was absolutely shocked when I discovered something I remembered so strongly in my childhood never even existed.

I really wish I could have stayed and asked some of the workers about the Jiffy. But the man that took my order kind if ruined it for me. Maybe next time. I'll be back to find some answers.

But I ended up taking some of the nicest updated photos you can find on the internet of the Jiffy on the Menu.

I will tell you this, something at Fanny Anns is one of many missing links that can expose the truth about our...

We chose this eatery upon the recommendation of a bellhop at our local hotel. He had said that they offer great hamburgers and wings.

This is a very large place with multiple levels, and due to the fact it was a weekday night we were forced to sit on its main level. This caused the restaurant to be fairly cramped with everyone on the main level.

This is a self-serve restaurant, at least while we were there, for ordering your food. We ordered directly from the cook, whose personal communication skills left quite a bit to be desired. We tried to be very friendly and outgoing, but it seems like he might've been in a non-joking mood.

We sat at the bar and the bar staff was very friendly, and timely. We ordered a half Guiness and half Modelo Nigro upon the recommendation of the bartender. My wife and I both enjoyed his recommendation and thought the beer tasted great.

The food took a little longer than we thought, but it tasted great. My wife ordered the Al's hamburger and was quite tasty. I ordered their wings.

These wings were excellent! I was expecting to get the normal legs and tiny wings that you get at most places. However, this place serves up full on large chicken wings! They were fried to perfection and seasoned with a nice zesty buffalo sauce.

One odd item to note: you're not able to create a traditional bar tab. The way it works there is that if you order a drink and it is seven dollars, then they charge you $10 on your credit card and then instantly provide you with three dollars in cash. We asked the bartender why they did this, and they really could not provide a logical reason. It's not a big deal, but we did think it was odd.

This is definitely not a place that you would want to go out on a date. This is a great place for burgers, wings, etc., but the patrons there seem to be from a variety of odd places. Let's just say this isn't the most classy environment to have a meal.

But if you're looking for good quick eats, then check out this place, especially if you like...

Fanny Ann's is located in a long, narrow building (typical of Old Town buildings), so that when you walk in, it can be a tight squeeze to get around people at the bar. If you are ordering food, the kitchen is past the bar, toward the back of the building. The service window opens right onto the kitchen, and you order directly from the cook, and pick up your food yourself when it's ready - there aren't any wait staff, unless things have changed recently. This is a three-story building, with the bar and kitchen on the ground floor, and the dining areas on the second and third floors. This is an old building, with no elevator, and the stairway to the upper floors is steeper than would be allowed by modern building codes, so forget about ADA compliance; if you have a mobility impairment that precludes you from climbing stairs, the upper floor dining areas will be inaccessible. I've had the basic burger and fries several times, and the food is good. "Tourist Pricing" is something you will encounter in Old Town, but Fanny Ann's is not excessively expensive. The decor is hard to describe. "Eclectic" just scratches the surface. I've been in a few dive bars in my time, but Fanny Ann's takes the ides to a whole new level. It's as if an army of antique collectors scavenged every flea market in the country for odds and ends, and brought everything here. The walls, ceilings, floors, and furniture all seem to be dark wood: think 200 year old mahogany covered with the remnants of dozens of coats of varnish, most of which is worn off, but still gleaming in places. The overall effect of the dark wood, dim lighting, and the narrowness of the building, makes it feel very "cave-like"; you almost expect stalactites to be growing down from the ceilings. Eating here is definitely an experience that would be hard to duplicate even in other Sacramento Old Town eating...
