Buckhead Cafe Glasgow

Last night The Buckhead Cafe in Glasgow did a fund raiser for Highland Elementary School so we used it as an excuse to eat there.

We had three burgers, two Hickory Burgers and a Cheeseburger - Cheeseburger. Two with killer chips and one with killer fries. When you order "killer' they come with melted cheese over them. The chips are "kettle"style and very good. I would encourage you to order these instead of the fries. Not because the fries aren't good but because the kettle chips are great.

The burgers were cooked perfectly. The service, even though they were very busy, was fast and efficient. The Buckhead, I think, gets forgotten a little because of it being away from the other restaurants but it is worth remembering. The food is consistently good and the self serve style makes it fast.

I wish they would put more dinner items on the menu. The Buckhead Cafe has a large menu but most of the items I think of as lunch, burgers, wraps, sandwiches, home made soups, etc.....

The Buckhead does serve a very good lasagna and a chicken dish with mushrooms, so there are a few "dinner items" but I think a couple of more wouldn't hurt. In fact, in my humble opinion, if they had a small ribeye or sirloin steak on the menu (or both) Colton's would have some competition.

Taste the hickory burger at Buckhead then imagine what a rib eye would taste like coming off of their grill with cheese covered kettle chips and a slice of garlic bread. Order me an ice tea and I am a happy person.

If you haven't been to the Buckhead Cafe in Glasgow, or it's been awhile, you need to go.

Remember, if you bring your church bulletin, you receive a ten percent discount. So for all of you who like to talk about how liquor is ruining our town, put you money where your mouth is and support a smoke free, alcohol free, restaurant that rewards church goers.

If you don't, you have no one to blame but yourself when our only choices are bars that serve food.
