Nice casual restaurant with country vibe. Breakfast with…read morefriends and everyone seemed happy with their choices. The special omelet of the day with asparagus, bacon and cheese was tasty. Their biscuits are large and the grits are good. Fruit cup was fresh. Coffee is good. Also has a pastry case for take out or eat in. Daily specials on a blackboard. Service was pleasant, courteous, and food was delivered surprisingly quick for a group. Order and pay at the counter -food is brought out to you and then table service. Location -just 5 miles outside Athens in Winterville. Easy drive. Facility : intentionally slightly rustic Single room, with some outside tables also (uncovered, in the sun and facing the road) Plenty of room between tables inside and outside. Parking outside on gravel lot.

This spot perfectly balances a small-town charm--think fresh food and a welcoming, local-business…read morefeel--with the kind of funky eclecticism you'd expect from something tied to Athens. It's got personality in all the right ways. Be prepared to take your time: you'll order at the counter, and since one person is usually juggling everything--taking orders, making coffee, serving food--the line can move slowly. But it's absolutely worth the wait. The food is thoughtfully prepared, the portions are generous, and the vibe is laid-back and genuine.

Okay... So, I've never actually been to the location, why I didn't want to do a review... but I've…read morehad a lot of their food. Mostly their chicken sandwich and fries in the form of take out/pick up. Royston Drive-In has been my replacer for hometown easy to grab chicken sandwich fixes for awhile now since getting burned a little by another local eatery in terms of.. well, their chicken. No puns intended. No one was burned by a chicken sandwich. Anyways, Royston Drive-In has been consistently good. Why I'd like to give them credit where it's due. Plus, they're also one of the places outside of the regular fast food stops that are generally open and in the area. Royston is infamously hard to figure out sometimes when and what is open. Monday is the new Sunday is all I got. As for that Chicken Sandwich. Keep up the good work. I know it's about the same as fast food, but it works and I'm happy with it.

Our family has eaten here for so many years that we cant even remember how long it been. However…read moreover the last few years we have watched this staple of Royston go downhill very badly. We have had to returned orders while in dine in, called about incorrect or low quality orders when we get home, I have even more recently begun or had family begin checking orders before we leave. Tonight I sent someone unaware of the issues to pick up our order. The double with bacon burger that I ordered and paid extra for was a single w/o bacon, my tater tots were instead fries, and they forgot our two orders of cole slaw. I called and after getting unthoughtout excuses from a young lady I then spoke to the owner Lee who just acted like an disinterested, dismissive and disrespectful prick, I normally would have taken up for Lee but his behavior was inexcusable I told him if that's how he chooses to act he's lost a few customers...he never asked who he was speaking to and dont think he knew so his responce was....and....I dont care...I guess we wont be seeing you again....I would say he had a bad day but his unwilling to right the issue or even right our name down to take care of it later. Had he.....he likley would have realized the family he was talking to. He didn't know who he was talking to as we are a very big family in the area and have a long history with his place. He has likely lost about 50 family members in one fatal swoop, Hes lost our families businesses ever ordering from him again. After his behavior and lack of interest in fixing anything and him allowing his business to faulter at the expense of his customers I suspect he will continue to lose more and more each day. Lee we wish you well from a distance.... but take for granted what God gives you and he will take it from you

Great burgers but the fries!!!!! The fries are awesome!! The fries came to the table perfectly…read morecooked and fresh. The outside was crisp and the inside was soft. We had the ones with Cajun seasoning which were really good but the garlic fries are seriously over the top. When we return (yes, of course we will return) I think I just want garlic fries. Forget the burger I just want to eat those amazing fries. It's a good burger. Juicy, well cooked. Not overdone. The bread was not my favorite. Why does everyone insist on brioche buns? They don't really work for a cheeseburger. It is still a damned good burger. The only real problem is that it will occupy too much room in my stomach that could otherwise be filled with garlic fries. The dining room is a bit small. Let's call it intimate. The staff are wonderful. Go. Eat fries. Life is good.

I was in town to see a show at the 40 Watt. Downtown Athens always has a good meal to be found…read moresomewhere. Today I wanted to have a burger. Some of the more well known places down here I don't like so much for one reason or another. I have been walking past Clocked for years an never tried it. Well, today was going to be the day! I was seated quickly by a friendly staffer. The vibe here is Athens collage restaurant. Which I like. Rather than a burger today I chose the Chicago dog with some cheese fries. This is not a Chicago dog, the bun was toasted and not soft with poppy seeds. Bit it was good. The fries were freshly cooked, crispy, and hot. Cheese sauce was excellent. I go to a 40 Watt or Foundry show about once a month. I will be back to Clocked again to try a burger. I like this place.
