“ Great staff. Food came out hot and delicious. Will definitely come back here again. ”
“ Best kept breakfast secret. Food isn't greasy. It's delicious. Great service. ”
“ Quite the mellow and simple place with an analog music background to keep the vibe alive - was playing the classic Isley Brothers... I ordered the fried chicken biscuit covered in sawmill gravy and a side of cheese grits. The chicken is perfection and should be ordered regardless of how you want it! One of the best in town. Grits are solid! They stepped up their pork sausage options for breakfast. Staff is super nice :) ”
“ Breakfast was so good, I got some lunch to go. Everyone was extremely nice and great service. Favorite part was the atmosphere; record player behind the bar playing a variety of vinyl. Won't find that anywhere else. Lived nearby for over a year and just now got around to checking it out. Definitely going back weekly or more. Highly recommend. ”
“ We stopped here for breakfast. This restaurant is a cut above the usual. Very friendly and efficient staff. Interesting decor, old LPs playing vintage vinyl in the background. Excellent breakfast, grits, honey biscuit, coffee. Reasonable price. Would definitely return. ”
“ You know a place is good when it’s the locals’ Go To for breakfast. The staff greeted several people by name, which tells me a lot about their fare, and even more about their customer service. My friend and I had the oft-served Two Egg Breakfast and the Bannerman Bowl. The former with lots of breakfast favorites on a platter, the latter with anything that wasn’t on that platter in a bowl with grits. Both were fabulous! I have to make special mention of the biscuit, because it was a real southern flaky soft biscuit. I’ve eaten lots of biscuits, even in places that name themselves after their biscuits, and this topped them. This was the kind of biscuit your grandma was rolling out well before you were born and sustaining families on for breakfast and supper every day. Gotta get a biscuit. Enjoy your meal AND get a T-shirt. There will be a wait, but it’ll be worth it. ”
“ Friendly service, good atmosphere, eggs were cooked right ”
“ We come here every Sunday before church with the kids. Theyre always very welcoming and kind. The servers are on top of their game and interact with the kids everytime while we’re there. One of our kids gets overstimulated easily but he loves being here and always so calm! The food, amazing! We’ve tried a lot of the menu and every thing we have gotten so far is great.food is never cold, and always comes out quickly and by quickly I mean we’ve never waited longer than 10 minutes for 4 of us except for maybe 1 time! ”
