At Treylor Park, the humble concept of comfort food is reimagined in the most delightful way. Think fried chicken and waffles, but with a fun new twist—try it with spicy maple syrup and a crispy touch you won’t find anywhere else. Or perhaps you’ll be tempted by their PB&J wings. Yes, you read that right. These wings are coated in a sweet and savory peanut butter glaze, and a peach jam dipping sauce. Feeling adventurous, we tried the Double Wide Dog, foot long dog coated in homemade sloppy joe, cheese, and fried banana peppers on one side. The other side, coated in chili, homemade relish and dijonaise. The portions were large so come with a hungry belly! Check out the menu. I give the Double Wide Dog a solid 5 out of 10.

And don’t miss out on their Treylor Park Nachos—these nachos bring their crispiness of the waffle fries, fried chicken all paired with a creamy ranch and balsamic drizzle. Customize them how you’d like. We opted for pickles on the side. These were yummy! 8 out of 10 on the rating scale.

Don’t Forget the Drinks

If you’re a fan of creative cocktails, Treylor Park won’t disappoint. Their drink menu is as inventive as their food, offering a variety of signature cocktails and refreshing drinks that pair perfectly with any dish. From a tangy Cucumber Cooler to a bold Bourbon Smash, you’re bound to find something that makes your taste buds dance.
