One of the best burgers ive had in a very long time. I got a smash burger thinking it was going to be small, but I couldn't even eat it all. Fresh meat, juicy, quality bun that was toasted on the grill, and came with potato chips. We got fries too which were hot and crispy, and our Coke came in a huge frosty mug. I dont know our servers name, but she was very pleasant. 100% recommend

What a great place! Verna’s has done a complete 180 in the past few years. Fantastic environment if you are looking for a small town bar and grill to enjoy the locals. Burger was good. Wraps are never a miss. Fries are great. Apps. Drinks. You name it they got it. Love what they did with the outdoor seating, bummed that it will be too cold to enjoy here soon.

As we waited for blood work to get done for my son, we decided to go in and get a snack. My son has autism. And immediately about coming in, he says, wow, this is so cool He has never been into a bar.So it was his first visit.We took pictures by the sign outside just to learn that they were going to close. I am glad we got to stop in at least one time. And they made my son's day. The bartender's grandmother gave him pieces of candy and they laughed and joked with him.It was great He's even flirted with a waitress in his own way. Thank you for a very nice time.This was about a week ago
