Hinkle's
4.1 / 5 (2737 reviews)

Description

Hinkle's offers a charming atmosphere and a diverse menu that delights some patrons with comfort food staples, like their renowned chicken and waffles. However, recent visits have revealed inconsistencies in food quality and service. While some diners rave about attentive staff and generous portions, others have encountered cold dishes and long waits. The restaurant’s ambiance receives praise, yet complaints about overpriced offerings linger. Overall, Hinkle's remains a local favorite for many, though its popularity may hinge on whether they can consistently deliver the quality and service that first won over their customers.

First class pharmacy, wonderful selection in the gift shop, and incredibly good food. Be sure to try the malted milkshakes!

The servers/staff were very helpful and nice. The gift shop is huge but sans some candy/baked goods, it ex,exactly that. A gift shop/ store. Not trying to be petty but you would think they would have more Hinkle's oriented merch. The food was not great. I get it I ordered a 20$ steak but, this thing was terrible. I ate a few bites and threw it out. The honey BBQ wings were very good though. Mac and cheese was mid grade. I got a tiny amount of fries and a small scoop of corn. This was taken off the bill but I didn't eat it or ask for another. Forgetaboutit.. 2 in the Hinkle's 3 in the stinkles.
