Remind me of McDonalds back in 2007 when their food was actually good. Good times! The Spot hits the spot!

I have only ordered pickup through their website. Tenderloin sandwich is AMAZING. I crave it and I hate pork. I am not a fan of their style of onion rings, but I still order them! Burgers are good. Fried mushrooms are excellent.

I love this place! Greasy burgers, tasty malts, and amazing pies. It's like taking a step back in time. I come here every chance I get. Will you get blown away by smiles and friendly service? Probably NOT! LOL. But it's nostalgic, the food is fantastic, and it's just a fun experience coming here.

The Spot is a good lunch place. Been around for years (at least 50) and granted it is in real need of renovations because it could be even better. Lots of good memories come from that place. I've seen two small historical restaurants close in the last week and would hate for that to happen here. The great food may not be enough.

The burgers are very thin no flavor no seasoning homemade onion rings are okay but they have no flavor the food is very bland. That's not a place I would drive out of my way to go to again and I seen a lot of other reviews said the same thing but I thought I still take a chance prices aren't too bad though.

The Spot has seen better days, I'm sure (and I say this as a first-time customer). I nearly gave two stars - due to the restroom situation - but I'm being nice due to the pandemic they're coming out of. I dined in with my wife and son. The bathrooms were in SEVERE need of cleaning, but I will spare you and not go into detail. We each ordered cheeseburgers and onion rings, which were acceptable. My malt was basically a cup of soft serve ice cream (spoon required).
Some of the booths and tables were broken or in bad shape. The Spot could use a renovation, but they can start with better cleaning and a more welcoming attitude from the staff - neither of which is very expensive.
