The Tipsy Burro Saloon & Cantina

We were nearby for the Christmas Show and were looking for somewhere to grab a quick bite before trekking back to Greensboro. This place was super close and had 4.5 stars on Yelp, so it was a no-brainer for us. When we pulled up, it looked a little sketchy and run down, but I don't like to judge a book by its cover, so we went in. There were a few people sitting around the bar and the bartender was chatting it up with them. It reminded me of a Cheers vibe, just completely different. What an eclectic place! It looks like an American Pickers dream! They're bathrooms are pretty neat too and they were super clean. The music was awesome, a Jimmy Buffet vibe; not too loud that you couldn't have a conversation, but loud enough to dance in your seat. The bartender was our server, which was fine because it was early and we had the place to ourselves, until others from the Christmas Show found it too. I had the Frito pie and my husband had the tacos. The food was so good! We had plenty to eat and even went home with a small box of leftovers. The chili on my Frito pie had just the right amount of kick for my taste. The queso was delicious, and my margarita was spot on too! Our only regret is that we live too far away!

My new spot. I stumbled upon this place after having an appointment nearby. By the 2nd margarita I realized my server (Jessica) was a forced to be reckoned with. Didn't matter if I was inside or out the drinks came to me! I had the Southwestern Eggrolls, Steak Quesadilla, and Grilled cheese for the little one. All the food as well as the drinks were 100% on point and you can tell the food was made fresh in house. That includes Todd's hot sauces, the queso, and the salsa. They are about an hour away from me but I plan to make the trip weekly now as nothing else comes close to the food or the service. Enjoyed the quaint patio and can't wait to come out on a Saturday to hear the bands. Thanks Todd and Jessica!
