- StephAugust 23, 2016Bat 17 is very flexible and will allow you to customize most orders! The sandwiches are amazing! Try the acapulco burger, turkey burger, veggie burger or the roadhouse.Upvote1Downvote
- Jabril FarajMay 31, 2011Great sandwiches! They're tasty and definitely oversized (that's a good thing) - so much so that if you get a large size you can eat half and your side and take the rest home. Also, beer towers = fant Read moreUpvote1Downvote
- Dustin HaleyDecember 23, 2018Great local place with thoughtfully sourced ingredients. Pricey, but as described, it’s due to the high quality ingredients and large portions. Huge menu!UpvoteDownvote
- Jennifer NeahringNovember 9, 2015Huge portions, friendly service, great fried chicken sliders and breakfast sandwiches! The French toast was a bit disappointing as it was advertised as Caramelized cherry pie but tasted canned.UpvoteDownvote
- A couple tips: Beer towers are 7 pints large. If you don't eat a lot, share a full-sized sandwich. Free coffee and free tea. And breakfast served for dinner!UpvoteDownvote
- Meagan AnkneyJuly 29, 2018The sandwiches here are to die for and the portions are huge, so come hungry!Upvote1Downvote
- Carrie CollinsJuly 4, 2015The burgers and cole slaw are truly amazing. Highly recommend. Portions are huge though - order accordingly.Upvote1Downvote
- Jake SmithFebruary 4, 2013Order "The Dude," it's the best sandwich here. You may think otherwise, but that's just like... your opinion, man.Upvote3Downvote
- Order a bacon manhattan. The salt and smoke of the bacon offer a nice counterpoint to the sweetness of the bourbon and vermouth. Manhattans here tend to be mixed on the slightly sweet side.Upvote2Downvote
