What we do

From the kitchen

Made to order, served hot, priced for regulars. Here's what comes out of the kitchen.

Burgers and Sandwiches

Fresh-ground burgers with car-themed names like the Carolina Burger Chevy Nova, plus sandwiches including the Sanguich Cubano, turkey melt, and chicken parmesan, built in a scratch kitchen.

Starters and Salads

Hand-cut fries, wings, fried pickles, guacamole and chips, and fried yuca to start, plus salads from a small Thunderbird to a full Cobb.

Pizza

Build-your-own and crafted pizzas in two sizes, including pear and gorgonzola, supreme, veggie, and buffalo ranch.

Dinner Specials

Evening specials served after 5 PM alongside the regular menu, for a slower dinner in the dining room or courtyard.

Gluten-Free Options

Gluten-free menu options with fryers kept gluten-free, so fries and fried items can be ordered with more confidence.

Courtyard Dining and Takeout

A courtyard and garden out back that is a favorite warm-weather hangout, plus takeout and online ordering for nights at home.
