Took my customer here for lunch yesterday, he visits them often. Cute little diner type of joint. Customer service excellent! Waitress came by several times asking how food was, refilled our drinks. I had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. It was small but tasty. Fries had a nice seasoning salt on them. My customer had a ham and cheese sandwich with chips. Iced tea was good. Service was lightening fast. They even give you a free little soft serve with Hershey's syrup for free after your meal. Nice touch. It's great to support local small spots. read more

Great service and value! The cheesesteaks are phenomenal and unless you haven't eaten for two days, a half is more than enough! It has the look and feel of an old time diner as well as unbelievable prices! Everything on the menu is appetizing and generous portions are the standard My wife and I took two friends for dinner and we raved about it for the entire weekend! Brian's will definitely be a regular night out - as long as my waistline doesn't complain! read more

The food is always on point. Always go for either the fully loaded cheesesteak or the cheese burger. Excellent customer service.

Great food! Great service and free ice cream treat! Would highly recommend getting off 95 for lunch or supper! read more

We were driving from NC back to Maryland, and it was almost lunchtime. We got off the highway after seeing a sign for a chicken fast food restaurant, but it said 4 miles away. We drove and drove but never found it. So we pulled into a little strip mall shopping center where there was a pizza place, an oyster bar, and Brian's Cheesesteaks. We decided to check out Brian's. The place is clearly a favorite with the locals. All the tables were full. There was no hostess, so you seat yourself. We headed for the counter and claimed two stools. They have quite a menu and it is a retro diner-style place. The server was really pleasant. We asked for two unsweet teas (clearly revealing ourselves as non-locals). The tea came out sweet anyway, but that was the only hiccup. I ordered a fried chicken sandwich with onion rings, and my friend did order a full cheesesteak (you can also order a half). Everything was delicious. The serving of onion rings was huge. The price for my huge chicken sandwich was only $6.50. They offered us free ice cream at the end, but we were too stuffed. So, the moral of the story is that it is WELL worth a short side trip to get off the interstate to eat at a local place that is NOT a fast food franchise. read more

We got cheesesteaks. It was very good. Fresh and hot. The fries were freshly cooked and seasoned just right. The serve was good.

Stopped here after doing some Christmas shopping. This is a hustling place and these folks work hard. I ordered the chicken Salad and pineapple salad with whipped cream. Both were delicious and I had enough for lunch tomorrow. The hubs ordered their cheeseburger and onion rings. He said the burger had a great flavor and the onio rings were good. Only negative he mentioned was the cheese never had time to melt on the burger and it was still cold. Casual dining. We paid $21 for our meals and one tea. read more

I'm going to start this with the good. My friend and myself went to Brian's because she knows my picks are 8 out 10 good eats. This experience was one of the worse, from the food to the overall experience. The Latin gentleman I didn't get his name was friendly and a delight to watch make several Phillies without breaking a sweat. He is the reason I gave them a star. It was the early dinner rush hour. As we sat at the counter waiting an hr for four hot dogs onion rings and things. I noticed the hot dogs sitting in the back of the heat lamp for the fries. As the orders begin to be made the manager in the yellow hat drops fresh hot dogs. I noticed that when he called out my order for my hotdogs he grabs the hot dogs that had been sitting up there prior to us arriving and we waited an hr for food. So yeah by the time he grabbed the hotdogs I head to the front counter. BTW I never get condiments so I knew it was my order. I told the lady I'd like to get a refund for my order. I was being nice and not stating the reason. She then told me I couldn't get a refund just because. So I informed her of what I saw and how I didn't want the cold hotdogs coming my way. She got loud and told me he would never do anything like that. And I wasn't getting a refund. Despite what I had just watched. So I opened the bag to show her and my guest the cold hotdogs I knew were going to be in the bag. I took them to her told her to feel them l. She realized she was wrong and I had been honest with my story. I never wanted to make a scene just didn't want cold hotdogs. I picked this place for the ratings not the attitude I was given today. So I'd highly advise placing an order and picking it up if you are still wanting to try this spot. I'm so glad my friends and their grandparents came to see a glimpse of why it's hard for me to go out and get a decent meal in some places. I never wanted to make a scene didn't even want a remake. I just wanted a refund because I waited an hr for two hotdogs. There was no way I was going to eat cold hotdogs. I can admit when I'm wrong I just wanted fresh food from a place that looked like a good spot. I'm ok with finding another restaurant when I come visit my nephew at college. This one isn't it I don't fit in and the service I received it spoke volumes to it. Again I picked this place because of the ratings I wanted to eat here. Just order your food over the phone to justify it being cold at pick up. I'm sure it's a decent spot I'll never know. All it takes is one time for me and I'll find somewhere else to eat. Customers are people and with an open kitchen you never know who's watching. So just make it easy and make everyone's food the way you'd want yours. With a bit of tlc. read more

My favorite lunch break burger spot! A double cheeseburger all the way is a sure hit every time.

What a great cheesesteak! The fries are awesome too. Better order ahead of time tho and even if you don't it's worth the wait

I've been here numerous times for the best cheesesteak but today I wanted a cheeseburger. I got a double all the way and a Brian's dog. GAHT! It was good. Now I'm not gonna sit here and say it's the best cheeseburger I've ever had or the juiciest or most flavorful but it was pretty dang good. Again impressed with the staff and the food! read more

Brian's Cheesesteaks - Double Cheeseburger - New American Near Me - Rocky Mount, North Carolina

Can I just say we met the most amazing and beautiful souls right here inside this restaurant! They made quite a difference in our lives that day! Making my long story short, hopefully a lifelong connection was made between a very caring waitress and my family. You have got to go meet these people, they are wonderful. And by the way, since it is a restaurant the food is so good and so reasonably priced, there is no way you can't love this place. Brian, I don't know if you are reading this but, you, your restaurant and its staff are incredible. read more

Cheeseburger is best described as middle school lunch quality. Pre-formed patties straight out of the Sam's Club freezer, about an 1/8 inch thick, grey all the way through. Basically tasted like a gas station burger. Maybe the cheesesteaks are good, the burger is objectively bad. Fries were excellent. read more

Best Cheesesteak I've had in recent memory. Highly recommended and one a few go to spots in Rocky Mount NC.

The BEST cheesesteaks in North Carolina! Excellent, quick service. Food is always hot and delicious.

I'm not sure why I never knew about this place. They've apparently been around for years but nevertheless, they popped up on yelp as a good option in the area so I took a gamble because, who says "no" to a cheesesteak? The sandwich was good and a little messy as a good cheesesteak should be. The fries were crisp and tasty. I have no complaints. Everything from the staff to the wait time was on point. I can't say that this cheesesteak was better than the classic one I used to always get from a local spot that has apparently disappeared from Rocky Mount (I.P. if anyone has info on the place) but I will be back for more in future visits to my hometown. read more

Food: We had cheesesteaks that were fantastic! We also were given a very large portion of well seasoned, hot fries. My daughter had a cheeseburger that she thought was excellent also. Atmosphere: Small, diner feel. Very clean! Customer Service: We ordered ours to go, so we didn't the "eat in" experience. Price: Priced fair for the food and experience. Conclusion: I highly recommend Brian's Cheesesteaks! You won't be disappointed. read more

Ya'll get over here and put this food in your face! Cheesesteak double meat add mushrooms $10. What? It's delicious! Do it!

Stayed in Rocky Mount for the summer working. Found this place thru CarryoutCabby which is a delivery service. Everything I've ordered so far has been delicious! Wonderful cheesesteak, club sandwich and reuben. The chicken salad is delicious and also the steak/gravy plate lunch I had was awesome! I haven't found anything from here that has disappointed me-everything has been excellent. read more

I wanted to try the Cheesesteak Sandwich. It's served after 10:30 am, So I got the steak egg and cheese. It was delicious. Highly recommended. read more

Food was AMAZING. Hostess / cashier not so much. Tammy was GREAT! Stopped in from on the road was awesome!

Pleasantly surprised, stopped in around 10am for a early lunch. The place was changing over from breakfast to lunch we were in luck. Lots of great choices on the menu, cheese steaks, hamburgers, hotdogs, some chicken to name a few. I settled on a cheesesteak (no roll) with lettuce and tomatoes a low-carb thing, wow that was great, tasty and a Great choice if you don't want all that bread. My wife ordered a Pork chop plate and it was outstanding as well. At the end of our meals they give us complementary ice cream, yum........ Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Now THIS is what fast food should be. More accurately, it was food FAST! And we're not talking something slid on a bun and placed under a heatlamp, we're talking high quality fare. I wasn't there more than 5 minutes and 4 people had already asked if they could help me. I don't think I had the "deer in the headlights" look! Counter service, table service and take-out. I just moved to Rocky Mount and found this gem going to the dry cleaners next door. A GREAT place that I'd take co-workers to, as well. read more

Oh my steak and eggs. Geeze best breakfast ever. I'm not sure about anything else because that's all I could ever order.

Have eaten there several times now and must say the food is delicious and the prices are great. The place is always busy but the staff is always there the serve you with a twinkle in their eye. I will continue to go back and make it a usual spot for the hubby and I. read more

Fist time visit to the restaurant and I was very impressed. Service was exceptional and portions were huge! And they offer free ice cream when you finish your meal! Food was exactly as I ordered it and delivered to the table in minutes. Highly recommend this restaurant for a tasty, filling lunch. read more

Be careful going to this place, only saw 1 out of 4 staff members wearing a mask including people preparing food and a server. Had we known before hand, definitely wouldn't have placed our pick up order. Feel for that 1 girl having to work with those other inconsiderate coworkers. Hopefully health department will follow up with them after being reported. read more

They only have American cheese for a place specializing in sandwiches I would expect more than one processed cheese choice. I also ordered a hotdog and the waitress could not tell me what meat was I it. I'm surprised of the high ratings this place has. read more

Great place to get a quick bite to eat. Fast service, good good, and cool interior. All the locals go here.

This place is busy! Very popular with the locals. Large menu with many daily specials at reasonable prices. My daughter ordered the chicken tender basket with fries, she loved it! I ordered the mushroom Swiss burger with fries. The burger was delicious however the fries were not. The fries were not fresh real potatoes but some processed frozen variety I'm sure. On the plus side you get a free soft serve vanilla ice cream cup which is really really good. Our waitress could use some training as we had to flag her down to order and for refills on our drinks; never once even smiled. read more
