Sides are inconsistent. On my first visit, I got the regular hand-cut french fries, and they were terrific. The bits of skin that still clung to the potato gave them lots of flavor, and they were fried to crispy perfection. The second time around, I went with Hill's seasoned fries. They were limp, greasy and utterly inedible. I doubt that the seasoning had anything to do with the problem. It seemed more like a problem with the temperature of the frying oil.

The mashed potatoes, on the other hand, are as good as they get. A burger and mashed potatoes don't sound like a very good combination, although they have another special, which I didn't get to try, called the Rocking F. It's a hamburger steak smothered with onions that might taste fine with those buttermilk mashed potatoes.

J's Special is a thing to behold.

On Sundays, they have an all-day happy hour with dollar drafts and 38-cent chicken wings. I'm thinking that in the summer of 2008, The Hill Bar & Grill is a perfect destination for a Sunday drive. It's out in the country — but not so far that you can't afford the gas.
