Have been determined to get a real Juicy Lucy since seeing on TV. Finally got one and it was so worth the hype! Cheese curds need to come down South; why don't we have these things in SC?
As one of the dueling "original" Jucy Lucyrestaurants (5-8 uses the "i" in its Juicy), you'd expect the 5-8 Club to offer a classic rendition. Read more
Spend the end of your visit playing the claw game near the entrance of the men's restroom. A winner every time guaranteed! (Insert $ on right slot only.)
I didn't care about their juicy Lucy. My bun was cold, there wasn't enough cheese oozing out, and it was Bland. Also, fries was gross. Prob won't go back, since there's Blue Door, The Nook...
Order the Juicy, with Jo's, American is my favorite. It's a classic. Chicken Drummies are also delicious, as-is a good ol' double bacon cheeseburger! Yum.
In 1928 the 5-8 Club opened as a "speakeasy" serving beer and liquor illegally to its thirsty patrons. Today, the three locations are still known the Juicy Lucy burger, famous beers, generous portions and thoughtful service!
