The 828

Had the big pretzel, a personal pan pepperoni pizza and a cheese steak to eat and we loved it. Fiancé had an espresso martini that she thought was great also. Will return for sure. Highly recommend this as a stop to refresh your palette. Great service also.

We've been waiting to check out this new place and were really impressed. The menu is expansive with lots of great choices, so there’s something for everyone. And if you have a big appetite, give the Phat and Happy burger a shot. You will not be disappointed. The full bar has some fun, creative drinks that are definitely worth trying. The food was awesome and everything we had was spot on. It does take a little extra time since they use a no-fire grill, but it’s absolutely worth the wait. One of the owners was our bartender and server, and she was fantastic—super outgoing, funny, and made the whole experience even better. The whole place is super clean and is trimmed out with sports memorabilia, giving it a great laid-back vibe. They’ve got a pool table, an outdoor eating area, and pl

The 828 is exactly what we needed in Lake Lure / Chimney Rock. Great vibes & food, friendly service, and a full menu that everyone can enjoy.

The meatball sub was dry, tator tots were undercooked, and tacos were okay. We paid $10 for two small eggrolls that weren’t hot. We then had to chase our waitress down to get a box and the bill, and instead of getting them she talked to a coworker for another 5 or so minutes and told us ou

This was the first time husband and I stopped in. Food was good, not great. We got wings with three flavors, loaded fries and a side salad. The spicy peach was okay, different which we like. Not very spicy but very peachy. The 828 buffalo sauce was really, really good. The bbq was okay, nothing social but nothing to complain about flavor wise. They were seriously saucy which I liked. But they were soggy. Idk if they needed cooked longer or if it was because of the sauce but they tasted like dominos wings texture wise and I didn’t like it neither did my husband the loaded fries came without sour cream but we didn’t ask for no sour cream. They were good flavor wise but again felt like it needed cooked more. They were very undercooked in my opinion and could have used a couple more minutes. M
