Rocky's shares the same space as The Arts Place of Stokes which was my main destination today. A…read morefriend who lives in the area has suggested this as a stop while I'm exploring North Carolina's county courthouses. I was able to find parking on the street and pop inside. A friendly barista who is a super nice dude but maybe not the most experienced barista. He made a nice cappuccino this morning which was good coffee and some of the strongest foam I've ever encountered. So that was nice even if he had to refer to his "how to" manual. Cute. I set up my laptop for a bit to work on my next stops as I'm in the area. The wifi worked well and I had a nice hour before heading onwards. This was super and don't miss the opportunity to explore some of that art! [Round number review 25800 overall - 619 of 2026 - 4707 in North Carolina]

After our hike at Hanging Rock, we decided to treat ourselves and stop for ice cream at Rocky's…read morewhile heading home. First time visiting this small shop, staff was very friendly, they had a huge drink (coffee) selection, but only a handful of ice cream flavors. They did offer toppings though and even sundaes. The space is very small with most seating outside. I decided to try the strawberry ice cream, which was deliciously creamy, and I topped it with crushed Oreos Fun stop! Would go back.

When I walked in mid morning on Saturday, you could hear a pin drop. There's no background music or noise, just silence. I made my way to the counter (the girl working the register was super nice) and asked for a recommendation on their specialty menu where they said they hadn't tried the drink I wanted to order. I ordered it anyways and while waiting for them to make it, I could hear the two girls working talking about how they were unsure on how to make my drink (remember it was completely silent so anything they were saying I could hear). When they brought me my coffee it looked like milk. I took it to go and once in my car, I took a sip and yep, sugar milk. I'm not even positive they put an ounce of coffee in there at all. Needless to say they, in fact, did not know how to make my drink. I took a couple of sips, gave up, and threw it away. With The Mad Bean, who has outstanding coffee, being directly across the street from The Parlor, I doubt I'll be returning anytime soon. Hopefully the staff can get some training on how to make their coffee drinks.

I popped in and the owner remembered me-although I hadn't seen her in years! She did my wedding cake (and cupcakes) back in 2014 when she was located in Elkin, NC. The cupcakes that I had then were Pumpkin Spice Cake and Red Velvet Cake with Cream Cheese icing and we also had Chocolate Cupcakes and they got rave reviews at my wedding! I opted for a vanilla cupcake and a few truffles/cake balls this trip and they were all great! The cake balls/truffles were Pineapple and Strawberry and they were super moist and flavorful. The cupcake was perfect. A yummy vanilla cake with a delicious frosting! It's nothing super fancy when you go in, as the case area is pretty small, but it's full of love and yummy treats!

Very solid meal and dining experience. I would give a 4.5 if possible…read more Stopped on our travels north for lunch on Father's Day, around 1:00 pm. The place was hopping. Not many dining choices in this area. Ample parking and a large dining area with tables efficiently serviced so that they turn over quickly. Our wait for a table was only 10-minutes, following a group of 18! The service was the star of the experience. Very efficient, helpful, attentive servers. Shout out to Suzanna. The large staff worked well together and seemed to make everyone feel comfortable. The ambience is southern, hometown casual. You feel like you are visiting your large family from start to finish. Nothing pretentious. Clean enough. Comfortable. Pricing....in this time of food inflation, this restaurant still offers amazing prices. My husband and I had two large dinner entrees with water and our bill came to just under $24.00. Our portions were generous as evidence in the photo. Our waitress recommended the grilled pork chops which were hot, juicy and seasoned just right. They came with two veggie sides from a long list of choices. I chose collard greens and Mac and cheese. These items were just average and only luke warm as was the biscuit (from a choice of about 5 bread options). Had the sides been hot and a little more flavorful, I would have given 5 stars. For vegetarians and all-day breakfast eaters, Cooper Pot is your place; so much to choose from on their menu. Vegans might struggle as most southern cooking includes dairy and it looks as if they cook their sides in large quantities and keep them in a warmer to serve. The ability to respond quickly to large numbers of travelers and locals, with solid, well-priced, filling meals is the gift of the Copper Pot. We will return when traveling their way.
