Burger Barn

So I try the place based on it's proximity to work and it's rating on Google Maps. I order a double cheeseburger, chili-cheese fries, and a vanilla shake. No shake; machine is down. Okay, no problem. I didn't get the vibe that anyone working inside was particularly happy to be there. They weren't hostile, they just weren't real friendly. It felt like me ordering was an imposition on their time. There more people inside than out when I arrived (this is a stand, not a restaurant). Maybe three orders before me. Yet I still waited nearly ten full minutes for my order, which considering the low volume (it was 1:45 in the afternoon, so after the lunch crowd) I thought was a bit excessive. So I finally get my meal, take it to my vehicle (no picnic tables!?), and open 'er up. The chili cheese 'fries' are this insipid, luke warm mass of moist potato substance with chili and cheese sauces on top. I'm in the foodservice business and I can tell you that these fries were not fresh, were probably cooked at too low a temperature, then sat around awhile, and were packaged incorrectly (Packaging is the owners' fault; you don't put hot fries in a sealed container - especially if you're putting hot, moist sauces on top of them). So after the disappointing 'fries' I was REALLY not looking forward to my burger. I thought it'd be two overcooked, over-pressed patties on a stale bun if the fry treatment was any indication. I was pleasantly surprised with a nice juicy offering made just the way I asked for it (lettuce, onions, mustard). The onions were diced and reasonably fresh so they still had bite to them, the lettuce I don't remember so I guess it made no impression on me, and just the right amount of mustard. The bun too was fresh and delicious. My only critique is maybe put some salt and pepper on the patties. All in all, not too bad. In their defense I can't say what the plain fries with no sauce are like, but the chili cheese offering is insulting. Definitely come for the burgers, but I can't recommend their fries

Looking at it from the outside I honestly had my doubt's. I called a friend of mine who lives in the area and she had really good things to say about it, so I gave them a shot. I promise they did not disappoint! I had a double bacon cheeseburger and some chili cheese fries and a sweet tea and it was the best fast food I've had in a long time. I definitely recommend that if you are in the area, give them a try. I promise you'll love it!!!!!

The food is very good and always hot when cooked the way you order it. I ordered the wings fried hard, only to get soft wings that I had to put in the toaster oven to finish cooking. So soft they almost didnt taste done. First time I've been disappointed in the food. I guess it depends on the cook.
