We were driving from NC back to Maryland, and it was almost lunchtime. We got off the highway after seeing a sign for a chicken fast food restaurant, but it said 4 miles away. We drove and drove but never found it. So we pulled into a little strip mall shopping center where there was a pizza place, an oyster bar, and Brian's Cheesesteaks. We decided to check out Brian's. The place is clearly a favorite with the locals. All the tables were full. There was no hostess, so you seat yourself. We headed for the counter and claimed two stools. They have quite a menu and it is a retro diner-style place. The server was really pleasant. We asked for two unsweet teas (clearly revealing ourselves as non-locals). The tea came out sweet anyway, but that was the only hiccup. I ordered a fried chicken sandwich with onion rings, and my friend did order a full cheesesteak (you can also order a half). Everything was delicious. The serving of onion rings was huge. The price for my huge chicken sandwich was only $6.50. They offered us free ice cream at the end, but we were too stuffed. So, the moral of the story is that it is WELL worth a short side trip to get off the interstate to eat at a local place that is NOT a fast food franchise.

I'm going to start this with the good. My friend and myself went to Brian's because she knows my picks are 8 out 10 good eats. This experience was one of the worse, from the food to the overall experience. The Latin gentleman I didn't get his name was friendly and a delight to watch make several Phillies without breaking a sweat. He is the reason I gave them a star. It was the early dinner rush hour. As we sat at the counter waiting an hr for four hot dogs onion rings and things. I noticed the hot dogs sitting in the back of the heat lamp for the fries. As the orders begin to be made the manager in the yellow hat drops fresh hot dogs. I noticed that when he called out my order for my hotdogs he grabs the hot dogs that had been sitting up there prior to us arriving and we waited an hr for food. So yeah by the time he grabbed the hotdogs I head to the front counter. BTW I never get condiments so I knew it was my order. I told the lady I'd like to get a refund for my order. I was being nice and not stating the reason. She then told me I couldn't get a refund just because. So I informed her of what I saw and how I didn't want the cold hotdogs coming my way. She got loud and told me he would never do anything like that. And I wasn't getting a refund. Despite what I had just watched. So I opened the bag to show her and my guest the cold hotdogs I knew were going to be in the bag. I took them to her told her to feel them l. She realized she was wrong and I had been honest with my story. I never wanted to make a scene just didn't want cold hotdogs. I picked this place for the ratings not the attitude I was given today. So I'd highly advise placing an order and picking it up if you are still wanting to try this spot. I'm so glad my friends and their grandparents came to see a glimpse of why it's hard for me to go out and get a decent meal in some places. I never wanted to make a scene didn't even want a remake. I just wanted a refund because I waited an hr for two hotdogs. There was no way I was going to eat cold hotdogs. I can admit when I'm wrong I just wanted fresh food from a place that looked like a good spot. I'm ok with finding another restaurant when I come visit my nephew at college. This one isn't it I don't fit in and the service I received it spoke volumes to it. Again I picked this place because of the ratings I wanted to eat here. Just order your food over the phone to justify it being cold at pick up. I'm sure it's a decent spot I'll never know. All it takes is one time for me and I'll find somewhere else to eat. Customers are people and with an open kitchen you never know who's watching. So just make it easy and make everyone's food the way you'd want yours. With a bit of tlc.

Stopped here after doing some Christmas shopping. This is a hustling place and these folks work hard. I ordered the chicken Salad and pineapple salad with whipped cream. Both were delicious and I had enough for lunch tomorrow. The hubs ordered their cheeseburger and onion rings. He said the burger had a great flavor and the onio rings were good. Only negative he mentioned was the cheese never had time to melt on the burger and it was still cold. Casual dining. We paid $21 for our meals and one tea.

I've been here numerous times for the best cheesesteak but today I wanted a cheeseburger. I got a double all the way and a Brian's dog. GAHT! It was good. Now I'm not gonna sit here and say it's the best cheeseburger I've ever had or the juiciest or most flavorful but it was pretty dang good. Again impressed with the staff and the food!

Food is always great, I've ordered cheesesteaks and hotdogs and they were delicious every time. My waitress was so great and she had awesome recommendations for the free (new flavors) ice cream!

Can I just say we met the most amazing and beautiful souls right here inside this restaurant! They made quite a difference in our lives that day! Making my long story short, hopefully a lifelong connection was made between a very caring waitress and my family. You have got to go meet these people, they are wonderful. And by the way, since it is a restaurant the food is so good and so reasonably priced, there is no way you can't love this place. Brian, I don't know if you are reading this but, you, your restaurant and its staff are incredible.

Great cheesesteaks. Can't beat the price either! I called in the order this time and it was ready in the time frame I was promised. Still warm too! Tons of choices on the menu too. The staff was very friendly and the other customers looked very happy with their food! I'll be back there for sure!!

Cheeseburger is best described as middle school lunch quality. Pre-formed patties straight out of the Sam's Club freezer, about an 1/8 inch thick, grey all the way through. Basically tasted like a gas station burger. Maybe the cheesesteaks are good, the burger is objectively bad. Fries were excellent.
