Showed up 20min before close and they invited me in with no attitude. Food was fresh and tasted amazing. Might be the best burger in ohio

My wife, 11yr old son and I stopped in for a quick lunch today. No stranger to Hodges, but haven’t been in a bit. I told my kid that these are serious burgers - a man’s burger . I am so pleased to say that nothing ever changes at Hodges, and I mean that in the best way possible. Quality is always top notch. The food is fresh as can be. You’d be hard pressed to find a better burger and fries in Northeast Ohio. I don’t think it would even be possible to have bad burger considering it’s cooked to order, and cooked by the owner himself, and the fries are fresh cut. I got the Big Hodge as usual. If you fancy a Big Mac style burger, I highly recommend this one. My kid got a build your own burger platter, and my wife loves the chicken sandwich. Oh, and the coleslaw is also killer. I must mention the atmosphere too. It’s cool, laid back, and has a hometown feel that I enjoy. Wait staff is always very friendly and never leaves you needing or wanting for anything. We’ve always gotten our food pretty fast too, especially today. I can’t say enough good things about Hodges!
