⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0/5 — S Bridges
Bacon Cheeseburger plate and Down on the Farm salad with chopped chicken were great! We felt like we were eating at mom’s kitchen in South Georgia. Sweet potato fries and onion rings were cooked to perfection. Cheeseburger was a very good portion. The bacon was perfectly cooked. The salad was fresh greens with walnuts not a bagged salad poured into a bowl. All the employees were friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0/5 — Wendy Duncan
First time that we've stopped here, we've always wanted to, and I'm so glad that we did. Staff was very friendly, the restaurant is very clean and inviting. I had a hamburger plate, by far the best onion rings I've had in a long time and absolutely the best potato salad I've ever had.in.my.life!!!! Will be back.

We have seen the sign for this place for a while now and finally had min to try it out, OMG this was so amazing, the pulled pork was top 5 best I've ever had paired with their vinegar sauce (better than mustard) and perfectly cook onion rings, the stew was about par still good but I've had better, the burgers are amazing and look handmade, tots were golden brown and the best from any stop in place. There are so many options on the huge menu we are coming back to try everything. 10/10 everyone needs to stop in this place! Staff was very nice and made you feel like you coming home for Sunday lunch.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0/5 — Michael Spain
We stopped by and had lunch one day. We ordered cheeseburgers and sides. The burgers were delicious and as good as any many I’ve order in Houston tx. Kiddos liked the grilled cheese kids meals. Cookies are creative flavors and delicious in taste. Must try.

The best stop to make after a long hike and swim in the gorge.... Ice cream excellent... food the best... I drove all the way from maryland it was so worth it...
⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0/5 — Karen Jarrell
I would normally give Blue Creek a 5 star rating on all foods but I was a tad disappointed in the fried shrimp the 2nd time I ordered it. First time, the shrimp were larger and cooked just right. Second time they were smaller and a little overcooked. But I’ll try them again because they were delicious the first time!
