The burgers are excellent with the secret chili recipe they have, I have at least 3 everytime I come down from Columbia. My uncle has been bringing me to Circle Fountain since I was 13 and now I'm 45.

The staff is very friendly. The menu is really limited but the food is really good! It is an old school bar that has been around for a long time. They have pool tables and a couple of other games to play. I think they even have a line-dancing class that I have not attended but heard is popular.

Great place to visit! Super nice people with some old fashioned good cooking. You have to try the plate with one burger and a hotdog. They are famous for their hamburgers! Try one and you'll see why!

One week in town and I found my bar. It’s a simple place with friendly bartenders and a welcoming crowd. Yummy chili cheeseburgers too!

This review is my nostalgic memories of 1974, 75, 76, 77. We lived around the bend on King Ave. I taught at the 6th grade center across the street and Ron taught at FMC. We loved our life there and still have dear friends in town though we moved back to Florida in 1995. BEST HOT DOGS IN TOWN!

I have known persons that went here in 1937 when it was a corner Fountain with drive up window. Having seen it change since my first visit in 1977 with different owners has made many friends and memories.
