Review
Every issue, the Pitchfork staff reviews local businesses. The Melt Yard Home Alone pop up adds more excitement to the already fun vibe of the restaurant.
Its unique, gigantic space is simply fun in every corner for kids and adults alike. The family-friendly atmosphere is perfect for a night out or even a casual get-together with friends. It highlights the community aspect of Marietta, encouraging that feeling from the moment you are greeted by the hosts.
Our visit right after school was well-planned to avoid a crowd. Due to its busyness and popularity, the restaurant is not accepting reservations during this holiday pop-up, but
the restaurant is easily accessible in the mid-afternoon, and crowds abound in the evening, with wait times that should be expected.
Our orders included regular items on the menu like the buffalo chicken dip, which could be perfect for sharing or a light meal. We checked out the extreme holiday milkshake “Eating Junk and Watching Rubbish” named after an infamous quote from Kevin McAllister. Incredibly filling and fun. The number one seller is their flagship “Truck Burger” with two smash patties, melted cheese, caramelized onion, pickles and yum yum sauce on a toasted bun. Debusschere calls it “comfort food”
and we agree.
