In 2011, brothers Mark, Eric, Doyle and long'time friend Dave realized their dream of opening their own neighborhood bar and restaurant. Drawing on Marks experience as a sous-chef in Montpellier, France, a menu was curated to deliver their unique take on gourmet burgers. To create a burger that truly set itself apart, the guys drew upon a family marinade recipe developed by the boys' father, Admiral Flannery, who spent his career as director of the National Military Command Center.
The boys and all their friends grew up eating and loving the Admirals burgers and his marinade was a perfect fit. The Admiral was always a bit of a gourmand though never one to follow a recipe; as a result, the brothers all have their own variations of the recipe, with each claiming to have,'the one that dad gave me!' You'll find a variation of this secret recipe on all our beef burgers, but Admiral Flannerys influence is still in each and every burger that comes out of the kitchen' as well as the welcome that we hope you all receive.
