The Hangout - Hamilton

Biggest sandwich ever that I have eaten, and delicious too

Loved the food, staff and atmosphere. The whole area is a tourist attraction. A historical landmark.

We waited almost 15 minutes for a table (two groups in front of us got frustrated and left). The restaurant was only half-full btw. Checking the menu I realized the online menu prices were NOT the same as the in-store menu. When we did get seated my 3yr old niece asked for lemonade. They were out of lemonade. Then a few minutes later we were told they were out of onion rings and fries. This was 1pm in the afternoon. So we left and went a few doors down to the best burger place in Missouri...where they had plenty of lemonade, fries, and even though they were slammed we had our food in 10 minutes. Severely disappointed since we drove from Independence to try the place.

On June 14th and 15th, 2021, we visited this restaurant. However, we were disappointed to find a sign on the door stating that it was closed for a private event and no longer open for business.

This restaurant is a solid choice with delicious food and efficient service. It's likely the top spot to dine in the quaint town of Hamilton. The only downside is that the chicken and waffles are only served at dinner, which is disappointing. Can't they just make them for lunch too?
