Welcome to 80/20 @ Kaelins. A new take on the classic restaurant where the cheeseburger was created. A neighborhood spot where anyone is welcome. Bring your family and friends and join us. A great place to watch a game or enjoy some family time. Featuring burgers and classic comfort food and drinks. Try out the 80/20 Malt Shoppe for some house made ice cream or a shake with your burger. Grab a bourbon or local brew to enjoy at the indoor/outdoor bar. Have an evening relaxing on our large patio. Maybe throw a party in one of our private dining areas where we can offer custom menus from casual to upscale.
We would love for you to join us. And we look forward to taking care of you.
Thanks,
80/20 @ Kaelins

    Was in town for a soccer tournament and found 80/20 is on open table. They had plenty of reservation slots even though they were pretty busy. The food was AMAZING. We got burgers and they were top notch. Prices were good too. The shakes are more $$$ but worth it. Spent about $80 for my daughter and I with both getting burger meals, an app, and shakes for deserts, which I think is VERY reasonable for such good food. Highly recommend. Opened atmosphere and a little loud, but overall fantastic!!!

    Great burgers- I had the original Kaelin’s cheeseburger and my husband had a larger one. Tasty sides- cheese grits & smashed potatoes. They already have good prices for wine, and even better (half price) during 2-6 pm happy hour!

    PLEASE, please bring back the chicken tenders! This was the only thing on the menu my (picky) granddaughter will eat. She tried the boneless thighs, but said they were “pink inside, and weird shapes”… My grandson loves the cheeseburgers, so we like to bring them there. They both love the milkshakes. Unfortunately this time my granddaughter only had a milkshake for dinner. Pretzel buns good. Fries good, always more than can be eaten. Mac & cheese good. Service is pleasant & efficient. I always really like the hand head credit card machine at the table!
