The Write-Up

The full story

A burger bar dressed as a 1920s service station, parked at Orlando International Premium Outlets, with vintage Fords overhead and shop rags for napkins. The burgers are huge, from the Signature and Estate to a brisket burnt ends melt and Firestone shrimp, and guests praise the hospitality as much as the food. It is the sit-down refuel the outlet day actually deserves, a room kids read as an attraction on its own.

Our honest take

A burger bar dressed as a vintage service station, and the grease-monkey theater works: big burgers, comfort food, and a room kids read as an attraction by itself. Parked at the Premium Outlets, it is the refuel stop the shopping day actually deserves.
