Smash Burgers vs. Stuffed Burgers: Which One’s Your Favorite?

There’s nothing quite like biting into a perfectly cooked burger, especially when you’re craving something juicy, flavorful, and downright delicious. The other day, I stopped by Lucy’s #7 in historic downtown Beloit to see what all the hype was about with their new smash burgers. Spoiler alert: I was not disappointed!Now, if you’ve been to Lucy’s before, you probably remember their stuffed burgers—thick patties filled with melted cheese and other tasty surprises. They were good, no doubt. But for me? The smash burgers take the crown.I went with the mac and cheese smash burger, and let me tell you—it was massive! Two smashed beef patties stacked on a fresh roll, loaded with creamy mac and cheese, and served with a pickle spear and a side of pub fries. The burger was juicy, steaming hot, and packed with flavor. Every bite had that crispy edge from the smashed patties, which added a nice texture contrast to the gooey mac and cheese.Speaking of the fries—wow. Perfectly cooked with a crispy, crunchy exterior and soft, fluffy inside. I know some people might judge me for this, but I like my fries with a splash of vinegar. Trust me, it’s a game-changer.To wash it all down, I ordered a Ninja Dust IPA from One Barrel Brewing Co. It’s a fruity, juicy IPA that paired perfectly with the burger. Refreshing, hoppy, and smooth—it hit the spot.And I can’t forget to mention the service. My server (I wish I caught her name—shorter, brown hair, super friendly) was attentive and checked in throughout the meal to make sure everything was just right. You can tell the staff at Lucy’s #7 takes pride in delivering a great experience.Price-wise, the burgers are pretty reasonable, especially considering the portion size and quality. Most range from $12 to $15, and that includes a side of fries. Overall, it’s a solid deal for a hearty meal.So, where do you stand in the burger debate—smash burgers or stuffed burgers? Personally, the crispy edges, juicy patties, and bold flavors of the smash burgers won me over. But hey, no judgment if you’re still team stuffed burger!If you haven’t tried Lucy’s #7 smash burgers yet, do yourself a favor and head to downtown Beloit. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you.

Austin’s Filling Station: Good Drinks, Great Food, and That Classic Neighborhood Bar Feel

If you’re looking for a laid-back bar where the beer is cheap, the food is solid, and the vibe is just right, Austin’s Filling Station should definitely be on your list. This spot has everything you want in a good neighborhood bar—friendly people, classic bar games, and some seriously tasty eats.A Little History & A Cool LogoOne of the first things you’ll notice when you walk in is the bar’s logo—a red 1968 Camaro. That’s not just any car; it’s Austin’s dad’s Camaro, adding a personal touch to the place that makes it feel even more like home.

We got into a game of 6-5-4—which, if you know, you know. It was my first time playing, and let’s just say… I won’t be winning any tournaments anytime soon. But that’s part of the fun here—whether you’re playing dice, shooting pool, or throwing darts, it’s all about having a good time.The Food: A Brisket Grilled Cheese Worth Talking AboutNow, let’s talk food. Austin’s isn’t just about drinks—they serve up some awesome bar food, too. I went with the brisket grilled cheese and let me tell you, that sandwich was something else. Smoky, cheesy, and packed with flavor. And the hand-cut fries? Easily some of the best around.

Cloud Haven: South Beloit’s Newest Cannabis Destination

If you’re looking for a welcoming, community-driven space to explore cannabis, you’ll want to check out Cloud Haven in South Beloit. I recently had the chance to visit and sit down with Maisie, one of the owners, to hear her story—and trust me, it’s an inspiring one.The Story Behind Cloud HavenMaisie isn’t your typical cannabis business owner. She started out as an attorney, but her interest in cannabis went far beyond the legal side. She always saw it in a positive light and wanted to explore its health benefits. That curiosity led her to start a hemp farm in Michigan, diving deep into the industry to understand the plant’s potential.The journey to opening Cloud Haven wasn’t quick or easy. The process began back in 2018, navigating the complicated application and licensing requirements. But Maisie was committed. She believed in creating a space where people could learn, explore, and experience cannabis in a way that feels safe and welcoming.What makes Cloud Haven even more special is the diversity within its ownership team. From age and gender to race and industry experience, this group brings a fresh perspective to the cannabis industry. They’re excited to offer something unique—not just for South Beloit, but for the whole Stateline area.Why South Beloit?Location matters, and Cloud Haven didn’t just land in South Beloit by accident. The city’s welcoming attitude played a huge role in their decision to set up shop here. The support from the local community, city officials, and businesses made it clear that this was the right place to build something great.Cloud Haven isn’t just about selling cannabis—it’s about celebrating the industry and giving people a space to discover something new. They’re focused on education, quality, and connection, making it a go-to destination for both experienced consumers and those who are just getting started.What Cloud Haven OffersWhether you're looking for a familiar favorite or something new to try, Cloud Haven’s selection has something for everyone. Their offerings include:✅ A variety of flower strains – carefully selected for quality and experience ✅ Edibles and infused products – from gummies to chocolates ✅ Craft growers & industry influencers – showcasing unique products and brandsThey want Cloud Haven to be more than just a dispensary. It’s a place where you can explore the latest innovations in cannabis, learn from industry experts, and find products that truly fit your needs.Built by the Community, for the CommunityOne of the most impressive things about Cloud Haven is their commitment to supporting local businesses. Instead of outsourcing construction and design to big companies, they hired local, blue-collar business owners to bring the space to life. It’s a level of community involvement you don’t always see, and it shows just how much they care about being a part of South Beloit.And they’re just getting started! Cloud Haven has big plans for events and activities, giving customers even more reasons to visit, learn, and connect.Experience Cloud Haven for YourselfWhether you’re a longtime cannabis enthusiast or just curious about what’s out there, Cloud Haven is a place where you can discover, learn, and enjoy. Stop by, check out their selection, and see for yourself why they’re already making a name for themselves in South Beloit.✨ Cloud Haven – where cannabis meets community.
