The Filling Station & Garage Bar

the burgers are really good, and they have affordable prices

Came here after a meeting at the MDC Wolfson Campus. Nice dive bar with lots of beer choices. Since it was lunch time and I was technically still working, my friends and I kept it clean with the drinks. I order a burger which was delicious as well as the fries. I would've given this place 5 stars but I also had the Clam Chowder which on the soup of the day. Hmmm...tough call because it was good but didn't really taste like clam chowder. Plus the color was more yellow than white so I'm guessing it was too buttery which happens.

If you are in this area or if you want to try something new, come here.

I came here recently for one of my best friends birthdays. She wanted to do something chill so having us get together in this dive-y burger joint was the perfect fit.

Overall the burgers were great. She and I split two - the Gabbys D'Lorean and the Steve's Respect Mobile. The former is made with nutella, caramelized onions, and peppered bacon. Even though I'm not that into nutella it went well with the sandwich, which was very good. The Steve's Respect Mobile had pulled pork, cheddar, and jerk BBQ sauce. This burger was AWESOME.

As a table we also shared tater tots with pulled pork and while those were good none of us were really crazy about them.

As far as prices go - you're getting a great bang for your buck. A nice sized burger with side of fries comes in under $10, and the draft beers were around $4 I think. If you're not that big of a beer drinker, try the Orange Blossom Pils! I'm not crazy about beer, and I loved it.

The service on our visit was not as good. We were a group of 8, which as in most cases meant we came in kind of scattered. We ordered the tots before our party was complete and they put them down after our whole party had arrived - but didn't ask them if they wanted anything to eat or drink...for the next 15 minutes. We ended up having to flag someone down and it was a whole process to get everyones orders in. The service got better after that, so i'm hoping it was just a fluke.

Side note: About the peppered bacon - it came on a lot of the burgers at our table and everyone agreed the pepper was really overwhelming. If you're going to order one of these know what you're getting yourself into.
