Halfway Station - Atascadero

Ate here for the first(and probably last) time this evening. Arrived at~ 5:15 and were the only customers. My son ordered a burger and I ordered the pesto chicken Sandwich. They were out of cheese curds so we ordered a side of onion rings to share.After about 10 min another couple came in (and there may have been a pick up order as well) but certainly not busy. Food finally arrived after about 20 min and the experience went down hill from there.My Son's burger was severely overcooked (borderline burnt). He ate it but was unimpressed.The Onion rings had good flavor and were served with a zippy vinegary Bar-B-Q sauce but were also overcooked and borderli e burnt.My chicken sandwich looked good (huge breast filet), but the experience imploded from there. The chicken was cooked to the consistency of shoe leather. The breast was covered with what could best be described as a brouchetta (tomato based sauce), and a thin layer of melted cheese. The pesto appeared to be some Aiolli drizzled on the two halves of the bun. The only other condiment was the extra onions I had ordered. I ended up leaving half the sandwich on the plate as it was so dry and overcooked as to be inedible I just couldn't choke it down.

Great food and atmosphere. Gets busy can cause service to be a little slow. Just enjoy your beer or wine while you wait. Great small town atmosphere. It's a local hangout.

The staff here are incredibly friendly, and the menu is absolutely fantastic. When our car broke down on the way back, we had no cell service, but Dan and his team went above and beyond to ensure we were all right. They even assisted us after their closing time. We are truly grateful to them.

Had been wanting to come in for dinner and finally got in! Let me tell you we were not disappointed! Love the vibe here and the people we usually only come for the bahm mi totts, but we decided to get a burger this time. Was delicious. I got the blue rock burger, and we split the wedge salad one of the best I have ever had! The bacon is to die for! I love the fact they have vegan pattys and gluten-free buns!Vegetarian options: Had vegetarian Patty's for burgers

Good food and the staff is really nice. We had a good time
