If you want great American food, wonderful service and a small, home-town ambiance, please stop here. I wanted a burger while on our road trip and I just didn't want to stop for fast food. My honey searched for a local place on the way and we are glad we found this place to stop at in Dillon, SC. Honey had a Texas grilled cheese: brisket with bbq sauce, pepper Jack and cheddar cheese on toasted sourdough. All of what it should be. I had "French onion burger" which was just a GOOD burger with caramelized onions, lettuce and mayo with provolone and Swiss. It didn't need any ketchup (and the viscosity of the ketchup led me to think it was homemade(?)). The bun was much better than I thought it would be- sweet and worth eating every bite. We were also pleasantly surprised that the pasta in the pasta salad was not over-cooked- it was al-dente as it should be and pretty pleasantly dressed lightly. We also had potato wedges- full potatoes cut length-wise in fourths and fried hot, which came with a good amount of (a good heat) chipotle aeoli and sour cream and grated powdery parmesan cheese. I love a good wedge of potato fries and this was a very pleasant surprise. Yeah, we were hungry, so sorry the pic was like half gone. There was a good selection to the menu as well, if burger is not your thing. Also deserts. I was tempted by the carrot cake! Back to atmosphere- this is definitely a working-people's restaurant so don't be surprised to see shelving and a very "homey" bathroom. If that upsets you, then yeah, Door-dash the food. We were both pleasantly surprised. For what we got, a burger under 10 dollars- very reasonable. Kim was wonderful and yes, we expected a little up from a fast food place. Only unfortunate point was the extreme limitation on sides. read more

We stopped in Dillion for lunch on the way to Florence at Breaking Bread because it had 4 and a half stars on Yelp. There were four adults and a 7 year old. I ordered a BLT which was good, not great. The bacon was in small bits and pieces and kept falling out of the bread. It takes good but was hard to eat. I ordered tater tots as a side and they were perfect. My mom got a southern chicken sandwich but the chicken was over cooked and tough for her to eat. My niece had the small shrimp and grits and previous reviewers were right, these were delicious and 5 star worthy. My sister got a classic burger which she said was good although she wasn't a fan of the frozen krinkle cut fries. The seven yo ordered the official dish of all kids under 10, chicken strips and fries. The "strips" were the same chicken as on mom's sandwich cut into chunks. The edges were very tough but the middle pieces were ok. She also wasn't a fan of the fries so we ordered some macaroni and cheese. It came in a bowl and was very cheesy and delicious. The tea and lemonade were good. My sister ordered a Sprite and was served "Starry" in a bottle. Over all the food wasn't terrible but middling except for the grits, those were stellar. The service was good with our waitress checking in on us and making sure our drinks stayed filled. It was a Tuesday so they were closing early at three and there weren't many customers. The building is a bit shabby and worn but clean. There were a few booths but mostly tables. read more

We hit the jackpot by going here! I try very hard to avoid fast food places as we travel from DC to Florida, which took us here. My omelette couldn't have been better. The same for my husband's fried eggs & bacon & homemade biscuit. We also felt safe because we were able to social distance. A perfect start to our day! read more

I found this local gem in a stand alone brick building on the corner. It was 3pm on a Fri and they were open. I ordered the small shrimp and grits and enjoyed every bite. It was a perfect as it gets for my tastes. I ordered the cheese steak for my husband who I left fishing at the campground. I'm sure it's wonderful too. I sampled a piece of carrot cake and the remains may or may not make it home. The service was impeccable and ambiance was comfy. read more

This was my favorite sit-down spot I've been to in awhile! We originally got off and exit to use the bathroom and explored the small town this place was located in so that we could get lunch. SOO GOOD! Must try the chicken salad wrap and Mac and cheese!! The workers are so friendly and helpful, they deserve the world! If I ever go on a road trip down south again, I am willing to go out of the way to experience the quality food and customer surface that I experienced today! Thank you and you MUST try! I wish someone invested in this business to expand it (I think a college town would be great business.) read more

This place was wonderful. Food was absolutely delicious. Customer service was great and the young woman who took care of us was adorable. She had a funny sense of humor.

Breaking Bread is a breath of fresh air to the Dillon area, for those sick and tired of fast food and the same old thing served by other eating establishments. The owner introduces customers to new items each week and still has his specialities on a regular basis such as shrimp and grits and his "Philly" cheese steak. The business itself is clean and easily accessible. The staff are always friendly and go out of their way to meet your every need. Rich, the owner stops by the tables personally to make sure everything was okay with the visit. If there is room left after the meal, the desserts are to die for. The banana pudding cheesecake is definitely a recommendation. read more
