This place isn't a fancy spot - it's fast casual dining, where you step up to the counter to order. Peruse the chalk board menus to decide what you're in the mood for.
Before you order your tasty sausage, you'll want to start with an order of Bacon Gorgonzola Fries or Chili Cheese Fries. They're served up on a big sheet pan, and covered in delicious toppings.
The choices are almost endless when it comes to the sausage sandwiches. You'll pick your sausage, add two toppings, and choose one sauce to drizzle over the top.
Sausage choices include everything from a traditional British banger or German bratwurst to sausages made with exotic and wild game, like elk and pork sausage or wild boar and garlic.
You'll get two toppings on top of your sausage, so choose wisely to find the perfect combo for your mood. Try caramelized, grilled, or raw onions, sweet or spicy peppers, sauerkraut, tomatoes, cheddar cheese, cream cheese, jalapeno, pepperoncini, chili or relish.
Now it's time to choose the sauce. The chimichurri is the house specialty, but you can also go with BBQ chipotle, garlic aioli, spicy ranch, curry ketchup, marinara sauce, spicy mustard or whole grain mustard.
You might also want to try the traditional Bangers & Mash - a savory British banger, served alongside mashed potatoes, and topped with gravy and caramelized onions.
The food is the main reason this place is so popular, but Yelp reviewers also rave about the stellar service here. And, while it can be crowded during lunch hour, it's well worth your wait!
