Pike's was on my list of top 3 locations to eat at on my trip.  I heard it was used in filming Shallow Hal and I was excited at the old fashioned soda shop atmosphere.  I was let down in all aspects.\n\nThe place looked like any normal restaurant and our waitress was annoying.  The food was average at best.  The coolest part was how the kids meals came out on school lunch trays. \n\nI was really disappointed by the Carolina Burger I got.  It wasn't even in the top 5 burgers I had on my trip.  I left with a sour taste in my mouth and this time it wasn't from the food.  I give Pike's 2 Doubledays for crushing my dreams.
