Mom and I stopped by the Smack Shack and split a burger and fries. They were delicious and portions were generous. We also ended up splitting a cookie sandwich and had to take some home. It was huge! Outdoor seating only and friendly service.

The spicy chicken thigh sandwich is fantastic. The thing is so big it could realistically fit across two sandwiches. The kick is spot on - not overwhelming but not so weak that it adds little to nothing to the flavor. The fries didn’t strike me as a stand-out item but they also sell a pretty decent burger. Service is fast and friendly, even when the place is swamped. It can get pretty hot eating outside on gravel next to traffic, even if you’re shaded by umbrella or tree.

Our first time to stop at the Smack Shack and it was a total elevation of the taste buds! Fries are real potatoes and they are delicious. Had the burger with the fried pickles and coleslaw along with Havarti cheese. Incredibly fabulously delicious!

Small but mighty! 7 of us for lunch and everyone was happy with their food. Burgers and sandwiches were great. The cookie is enormous and delicious. So big it was still a little doughy inside which we loved.
