    This is the second weekend in a row we have driven down here just for them to not be open on time. And the lady there was SO RUDE. I asked, I thought yall opened at 10? That's what the sign said. And the lady told me "do you see anyone here?? That's why we aren't open!" Excuse my language but what I bitch? Don't work a customer service job if you can't be polite or respectful to your customers. She needs get her shit together or get someone who can.

    Empty, quiet, yet still lacking the capacity to complete a correct order ‍

    Worst Checkers I've ever experienced! I've frequented Checkers in College Station and The Woodlands, and always thought it was pleasant. Yesterday however, I made the mistake of stopping in at the Centerville location for a quick to go bite with my husband. It was completely empty, minus two workers who let us stand at the empty counter for several minutes while they spoke amongst each other and seemed to not even notice the only two people in the establishment. My husband ordered wings and they stated they were out of wings, so he opted for a milkshake and was told the "milk machine was down". He decided to have a salad from the gas station next door, while I ordered a 1.00 cheeseburger, small fries, and mozzarella sticks. I asked for my burger with pickles and Mayo, Ranch with my cheese sticks, and to please put ketchup in the to go bag. The order seemed simple enough, seeing as I was now the only customer. I tried to pay with a 100$ bill and was told they couldn't break 100 so I had to go find my spouse to grab smaller bills, returned and sat down in a chair right by the counter, where I proceeded to wait for about 15 more minutes while I watched the two move at snails pace. I honestly started to believe that they were either extremely stoned or possibly English was a second language and they were immigrants who didn't understand fully, how the fast food industry works. I am handed my bags, no have a nice day, no words spoken at all, and I walked out literally wondering if they had been taken by body snatchers because it felt like a weird twilight zone episode. You could talk to them but tell no lights were on if you know what I mean. I open my bag and see no ketchup, run back in to get some and again, zero words, slow sluggish movements, and I was out the door convinced I would never go back. A few miles down the road I notice no ranch for my mozzarella sticks, my burger order was just plain with no condiments, and I wondered how in the absolute hell can you screw up every single component on the one and only order you had, and there were two of you? Two adults couldn't figure it out when it was literally the ONLY thing they had to do? NEVER would I even think of putting forth the effort to even open the door at this location, let alone give them my money until they really step up on employee standards because it was almost laughable how bad it actually was for the clientele. Or should I say client?

    Weak service slooooooow

    Zero stars slowest service since 1996. Waited at the speaker for over ten minutes. Still waiting after twenty mins service was so bad i came on here to post my first ever review lol

    Happy as a steamed clam.

    For some reason they closed hours early and didn't even have a sign stating it. Closing 3 hours before closing is crazy

The proportions were the perfect size, not too little and definitely not overwhelming. Everything was excellent and cooked to perfection. I had the sweet tea and it was wonderful as well. My co worker had the fish plate, she is a connoisseur of fish and said it was wonderful. The booths were a good size and customers are able to write with chalk paint pens to leave their mark. The environment was relaxing and fun at the same time. Although the space is smaller, the speed of service and the wonderful staff made it feel big. Will definitely return when I travel through Teague!

    In all my decades of driving between Houston and Dallas, I had never stopped here. Determined to…read morefinally try something new - and to not hit up the usual Buc-ee's or Woody's and the like - we stopped at Sam's last Friday. And I'm glad we did! If you're seeking something quick, gourmet, trendy, or unique, Sam's is NOT it. But if you have time to sit down at a classic Texas comfort food joint and enjoy a buffet with items such as southern fried chicken, fried catfish, brisket w. BBQ sauce, fried okra, corn, mashed potatoes, and a whole lot more, then Sam's is worth checking out. They also have an ala carte menu of southern classics. Oh, and if you opt to do the buffet as I did, you can help yourself to a few different freshly made warm desserts or ice cream, and at no extra charge. $19.99 was more than fair for buffet and that's more than fair for what you get. There is also a fruit and salad bar which I didn't partake from and I couldn't even try all the hot food. Oh well...there will be a next time!

    My dad has been coming here for years, I believe this was my first time…read more My dad went for the buffet, and I ordered a la carte. First, the service was excellent, I believe our server was named Presley. Very kind, always checking on us and keeping our water and tea full. On the buffet, my dad enjoyed the salad he had, but was surprised at the little variety offered that day. He said last time he was there with my brother there was more to choose from. He then got the fried chicken, which was greasy and barely any chicken on the thigh. I tried to find a drumstick but it was just breasts, thighs and a few wings. He did like the chicken fried steak and mashed potatoes. As for the fried okra, you have to eat it fresh. It is sitting under a heat lamp just makes it soggy and slimy. I ordered 4 vegetables a la carte which came out to be as much as the all you can eat buffet. First, their onion rings are OUTSTANDING! So is their homemade ranch. What was disappointing was the green beans, they definitely came out of a can and were heated. At $3.99 I expected fresh. There may have been a small piece of onion in it. Not sure if that was how it was cooked or if it fell in from another dish. The black-eyed peas were tasty. I also had a cup of the chicken corn chowder which was good. However, there was pieces of cubed chicken in it which also made me think that it was a prepackaged soup and not homemade. My dad got the coconut cream pie, which tasted good, but could have used more coconut then just on the top. He wanted bread pudding or peach cobbler, however at the time of day we were there, they had been picked over way too much, not leaving much for anyone else to enjoy. I did like the selections in the gift shop and purchased a tea towel before we left. I always like to try a place 3 times so I may stop in and try something else. Again, great customer service.

I was in the drive thru and knew I was in trouble the minute they asked me to pull forward and wait for someone to bring my food out to my truck. I've seen this scenario play out before and it's always resulted in them forgetting to bring my food out. So, after enough time to have gone into a sit down restaurant and been partially through my meal, I went inside. No one paid me any attention until I said, "I'm still waiting on my Big Breakfast. The manager--I recognize her, but don't know her name--brusquely said, "we're still waiting on pancakes." She said this as I saw two Big Breakfasts sitting in queue and watched the line personnel open and close a warming bin full of pancakes. I suppose those two Big Breakfasts meals could've been going out to someone who'd been there longer than me, say someone who'd waited 45 minutes. I said, "I've been waiting 32 minutes already." That's when she snapped: "Fast food isn't always fast." She then yelled at her staff, "Don't take anymore orders for Big Breakfasts, everybody wants them then complains about having to wait. NO MORE!!" Sounded good to me, if you're such a poor manager that your staff can't fill a Big Breakfast order in less than half an hour, maybe you shouldn't be serving that item. But I suspect corporate has a different opinion of how that's supposed to work. By the way, after all that, the food was merely warm at best.
