"Real Good Food....Real Good People"
Bubbas Potbelly stove is located along 309 right before you enter Coopersburg. Ryan and I headed to Bubbas ready to chow down on some good cookin. The parking lot was packed when we arrived, and this was a good indicator that Bubbas was going to be something worthwhile!
The inside of Bubbas had a "cabin feel" to it and reminded me of the days when I would build homes with lincoln logs and then my gi-joe would take over and destroy them in battle. As Ryan and I stood against the wall waiting to be seated, we noticed that Bubbas had quite a few plaques with awards and news articles hanging along the wall displaying their presence in the media. It was nice to know that Bubbas has a presence in Quakertown and by the looks of it, everyone loves Bubbas. Every table was packed and with Bubbas being on the smaller side, Ryan and I were placed at a table not even arms length away from a family. The atmosphere felt a little cramped but it wasn't keeping business away!
Ryan ordered a Montgomery burger which consists of bacon and cheese. Each burger comes with lettuce, tomato, onions, a pickle and chips. If you don't want those, make sure to clarify! I ordered a burger that actually IS NO LONGER on the menu. The waitress told me about it and it sounded delicious, as it was. It was a burger with ham and cheese, and pineapple. With lettuce, tomato and onions on top of that and a side of BBQ sauce, I had to unhinge my jaw like a 6 foot boa constrictor in order to succesfully fit the burger in my mouth. We both wanted fries instead of chips (Who doesn't!?), so we had to pay extra for fries (They don't substitute). However, it was SO worth it. The fries reminded us of steak fries. However, most steak fries are too mushy for Ryan and I, but Bubbas fries were perfect. They were crispy and didn't taste like grease! As Ryan and I looked around, we noticed that almost every person in Bubbas at the time had a bowl of French Onion Soup. I asked the waitress about it and she said that the French Onion Soup is a popular among the locals. I had to add that soup to the tab! For $5.95 a bowl, I got a taste of what Bubbas is all about. Filled to the brim with cheese, be sure to wear a bib because it will get messy! I am not a huge fan of french onion soup (Or so I thought), but I know good soup when I taste it! I highly recommend stopping by Bubbas and grabbing a bowl of this delicious soup.
Now Bubbas can be a little pricey. If you aren't getting a sandwhich, then expect to spend at least $20 per person for the other entrees. The refills are free which is nice, but since when do fries not come with a burger!? We spent $5.90 I believe for 2 orders of fries. The fries are delicious and it would be neat to see the fries added to the burger meal!! **Note: On Wednesdays, they have a deal where you buy any burger and you get fries for free. I might be checking that one out!
Bubbas can make for a nice night out if you are willing to spend a little more. The food was pretty good and we left feeling very satisfied. The atmosphere was a little cramped and it would be nice to have a little more room so the people next to us don't have to hear every word we say, and vice versa. The price and the atmosphere took the rating down a little bit, but overall, we would go back!
