So fun to visit a cultural “landmark” on our one night stop in Salina! Sliders were delicious and the people who worked there were so incredibly kind!

Stooped by on the recommendation of a coworker. Establishment been there since 1922, the burgers are some of the best sliders you will have. They all have sauteed onions and your options are to have it with or without ketchup, pickles or mustard. They don't serve cheese or have in the building. We found inside great service...knowledgeable of the restaurant facility with many of the appointments being original. The sliders are awesome! I will be back....6 for 10 and change...how do you not do that!

These are very tasty sliders! Grilled to perfection with onions, they are sure to please any carnivore. It certainly is an historic (since 1922) establishment. The ladies who work there are very friendly and more than willing to answer our questions regarding the history of this diner.

Great little nook burger place ! Sliders came out quick and they were delicious. The owner (?) was warm and very welcoming and I enjoyed our little conversation. If you are in Salina, definitely check this place out !

Delicious made to order hamburger sliders served fresh off the grill with all of the fixns! Friendly staff who warmly welcome you as family and make you feel right at home. I recommend 4-8burgers per person. Ample street parking

Well worth stopping for a slider at the 100 year old burger stand that’s too small for a fryer, so the steamed sacks full of old fashioned onion smashed mini burgers are the stars of the show! The staff are super friendly and helpful and happy to tell you the cozy tale of the inn.

What!!! That’s what I have to say. For a small burger place that’s been around this long, when you come here you’ll know why it’s still open. Such a crazy concept but it works. The burgers are little sliders and are delicious!! It’s kind of like crystals or White Castle but 100 times better. The burgers patties are bigger and the buns steamed and warm. I couldn’t put them down. The only thing I would have done definitely is added cheese but they don’t serve cheese so. But it works you don’t need it. If your ever in Selina don’t leave u till you try one, and there cheep.

We stopped in for sliders for the first time. They were delicious. The young lady and the man working there were chatty and friendly. We had a great visit and meal. Thanks!
