“ My family and I go here when we visit from out of town, the employees are some of the nicest people we have met there. The food is absolutely amazing and definitely one of our favorite places to go. The ladies at the counter are always so pleasant and helpful, they have a lot to choose from and they always serve with a smile. I definitely can’t say enough about this place!! ”
“ This is the sweetest place to come and eat. Miss Irene is an amazing cook and has been feeding people for over 50 years! It's cute, comfortable and she has specials every day. It's a bit of a drive and out in the country off of highway 42 towards wilson. You should check it out! ”
“ Omg, I haven't had food this good since my grandma passed! Full of flavor and huge portions! Not to mention, everyone was extremely friendly and made us feel like family. We will definitely be back again! ”
“ Food was great and the employees are very friendly. This was a great place to eat and will be back to try more on the menu. Great place if you are tired of the chains. It could use a little bit of restoration but that is part of the charm! ”
“ I got a double bacon cheeseburger, large fries, and mac n cheese. The people were lovely, funny, and friendly! The food was great! Tall, thick, juicy burger patties, lots of bacon, grilled onions, and an extra bun in the middle. It was a lot of food for the money. The fries are thick crinkle cut, seasoned very well, and fried very crispy - best fries I've ever had! I would go back just for the fries. The mac n cheese was gooey, cheesy, and delicious. I shared the meal with my toddler and he gobbled up every bite. He's normally a little picky with burgers, but he really liked this one. I'll plan to be back soon! ”
