Though dining at TBK on any day means lining up early, it’s well worth the wait for brunch on the weekend. Signature dishes, like “katfish” and grits, and the wings and waffles, featuring a heavenly waffle topped with six flavorful crispy wings, are the perfect place to start. The lunch menu’s variety of sandwiches won’t disappoint.
