Uzoma NwosuDecember 17, 2015I really like that they don't skimp on the straws on their milkshakes. They don't collapse on you while you're working on a brain-freeze moment.Upvoted 1 day ago- Jason NealisAugust 15, 2014Go all in and get the Bens Original Half Smoke and fries ! The dig ur fries in the Chili!
One must get the original chili half smoke. Cheese optional. To die for!
Will ShafferNovember 27, 2018Comfort food, good service. If you need a quick fix this it before crossing security.- Stephen ColellaJune 1, 2022Great milkshakes. Don’t forget to take a spoon because you can’t drink it with a straw
- Tremayne PrimmApril 10, 2019I stopped here yesterday for chili, I was terriblely disappointed. I purchased a large chili. The bowl was half filled and more liquid than chili. 9.00 for hot spicy water. Very little meat n bean
- Tremayne PrimmApril 10, 2019The chili is good but the service sucks. Stop in today on my way to a flight to make a complaint. Manager said he would give me another chili/. He did, a small, I paid for a large-almost 0 cheese.
- Tremayne PrimmApril 10, 2019Asked for large chili, got spicy water with cheese. I think I had one piece of meat.
