Salem Street Pub in downtown Apex...the "my wife said it would never sell"...burger with PB and honey on it....excellent.

It took me awhile to finally try it. It was awesome!

Char-Grill shakes are so thick you need a spoon I never get a shake with my burgers. I make another trip later for a chocolate shake.

That's why I get a beer with my burger (not at Char-Grill) and then a shake after. Yup, very unhealthy!

But you have MoJoe's, Al's, Char-Grill, Bad Daddy's, etc. The area is loaded with good options!

It was a gas station before they converted it to the Tilted Kilt. That area has been terrible for businesses. The pharmacy that opened across the street did not last long.

I never knew that. You're right, it was Off Kilter. Always meant to stop in there, but kept hearing mixed reviews so never stopped. I think it's a tough location unless you live over there.

Dang, that 5 Guys just opened too...

(this is a joke - they've had the "Now Open" sign up for YEARS).

Yep. Messiest burger I've ever eaten probably......but the flavor profile works!

That place has come a long way from when it was a laundromat (though I did enjoy it as "Salem Street Soda Shop")

Not to threadjack, but there was a Tilted Kilt in Apex?


BoardMember, I was laughing at that sign a few weeks ago...it always surprised me they never seemed to do much with that building. Though I suppose changing from a bank to a restaurant is something!

I got the name wrong. It was called Off Kilter.
