By Golly’s originally started in Milford in 1983 and is known for its burgers, chicken wings, hand-cut waffle fries and festive environment.
“We know we want to grow outside of Cincinnati,” Owner Lance Sizemore previously said. “We’ve been looking at Dayton, Springfield, Lexington and Louisville as our next market.”
The restaurant offers a diverse menu with gluten-free options including a dedicated gluten-free fryer. It’s gluten-free buns, pizza crusts and hoagie rolls are sourced from Sunny Marie’s, a local company.
The most popular burger on the menu is By Golly’s Bacon & Cheddar Burger featuring the restaurant’s signature By Golly sauce. The burgers are made from a premium blend of fresh ground chuck and sirloin beef.
Those who order the wings should try the OMG sauce. Sizemore described it as a little spicier than “hot,” with a good flavor. Other popular sauces include the Sweet Thai Chili and Carolina Gold.
