"One cold winter day I was off riding on the North East side of Georgia, scoping out new areas and new roads. I was hungry because let 's be honest, it had probably been an hour or two since my last meal!! I was approaching some large facilities to my left that caught my eye because of its funky looking roof when I noticed a sign on the right side of the road that read THE SNACK SHACK, as soon as saw the OLD FASHIONED part of the sign I started breaking hard to make a sharp right into their parking area. When I pulled in I realized everyone was in the comfort of their warm/heated cars because there is no inside dining area at THE SNACK SHACK, only some outside benches. Did I care? Nope, I was hungry. I 've been here several times but my favorite item is either their PANTHER burger which lays in between two cheesy grilled cheese buns or their BACON BLUE CHEESE BURGER which simply has bacon and blue cheese on it. Their PANTHER burger is awesome because the grilled cheese portion of it would be great on its own, then you add a burger with some onions? Yes!! They do not cheap out on the amount of crispy bacon and creamy blue cheese you get on the BACON BLUE cheese burger, the fries and coke zero compliment the burger and strong taste very well but I do like the ONION RINGS better than the fries. Although the bun may not be photogenic like other burger buns, it is a great bun because it isn 't thick and heavy, allowing the star of the meal to be what 's in between the buns. Their chili has a great taste and isn 't too salty like some other places, so having chili cheese fries and a chili cheese hot dog will leave you saying eh, why not... . Drink options are canned or bottled sodas and I wish there was maybe a small soda fountain because I like taking a bite of my food followed immediately by a zesty COCA-COLA and sometimes I run out of my canned soda before I 'm done with my meal. One last thing, their food is great but what makes this place special is the people. I met the owner Jeff and his wife one time while visiting after Jeff started up a conversation over how I was enjoying the meal. The passion and love in which he speaks about his food and business, to me, will always be the most amazing part of trying new places. You are getting to experience someone else 's hard work and labor and getting to let them know what you think. After my experience at THE SNACK SHACK and getting to talk to Jeff I was left thinking why would anyone go to a fast food spot like a burger king or wendy 's when you have awesome little local spots like this all over GA? . I think people just like what they know and may be afraid to venture out. Maybe one day one of those people will see one of my posts and think let me try THE SNACK SHACK.... or any other local food business, and if that happens with at least one person, I 've done my job!! I encourage you to check out THE SNACK shack if you live near Jefferson or find yourself traveling up 85 and try one of the menu items. Ask the staff if they have anything special cookin for that day, Jeff and their staff often post about new and exciting combinations with their breakfast and/or lunch. Heck, I encourage you to try a LOCAL food business in your area this next week instead of going to a large chain or fast food joint, support our local businesses!! Let me know who you give a try and if I haven 't been where you went, I 'll give them a try!! Roli 's Rating: 1. Service: 8/10 2. Price: 8/10 3. Location and Parking: 4/10 4. Cleanliness: 10/10 5.
