You're not going to have a huge selection of restaurants, and often what you find will just be fast food. When I can, I like to try out a little of the local flavor, even if it is just a simple sandwich or meat and two place like this one. Pulling into Bennettsville, it had that small hometown feel, and I knew there had to be a good local place to have lunch. It being a Monday provided some obstacle, but we eventually found Southern Delights open and ready for business. When we arrived, it was nice to see a good local crowd enjoying them for lunch. Our server was buzzing around from table to table with haste, and was very nice, probably too over apologetic for any wait. She did a great job. There is a lot to enjoy here, plenty of country style cooking and an extensive sandwich menu. The prices are very reasonable. It's the kind of place that serves their community, not trying to be fancy, just good food and service! I decided to go with a club sandwich and onion rings, while my wife went for the reuben and fries. My club sandwich was good, and the onion rings were great. Perfectly crispy. The club had an ample amount of meat, though I'd have liked to have seen a different size bread. With the sandwich quartered, the basic sandwich slice white bread made the pieces a little unruly. Or maybe just cut it in half (though i know a club is traditionally quartered). My wife really enjoyed here reuben, cole slaw instead of kraut, and her fries were cooked perfectly. Generous portion on both the fries and onion rings which you love to see. Our tea was also spot on, just enough sweet to make a perfectly balanced half and half. Overall, is this place going to blow you away? No. But I am definitely giving it a 5 for knowing exactly what it is, and executing in a way you'll be happy with if you visit. If I ever pass through again and need a bite, I know where to go!

I remember when this used to be the Sanitary Cafe and Harry ran the place. He had a small display case with some of his old military stuff in it from when he was in World War 2. I was happy to see the stainless steel wall cover still there behind the counter. I met a friend of mine for lunch on my way to Myrtle Beach. We've been friends since 3rd Grade ! I had the Country Ham Plate with Mac-n-Cheese , Mashed Potatoes and Gravy , Roll , and Sweet Tea. He had the Patty Melt with Fries. I love getting Country Ham when I come home to visit because we can't get it in Las Vegas. It was good , but I have to say the portion was a little smaller than I expected. The Mashed Potatoes and Gravy was good , but the Mac-n-Cheese I didn't really care for. Sweet Tea was on point. My friend liked his Patty Melt and fries. He knew our waitress and she was nice enough to take a picture of us. Bennettsville is still the small town community that I remember and grew up in. I would love to see it grow again like many places have even though all the jobs moved away years ago when the factories moved overseas. My father and I walked the streets of Bennettsville everyday after he got off work and we visited many of the shopkeepers after his first heart attack to give him some exercise. He grew up in Bennettsville and never moved as many of the people that he grew up with. Bennettsville was a tight knit community then and I know the ones that I grew up with still have this place in their heart even being thousands of miles away like me.

My buddy and I were riding around town on my recent visit back home and I decided I wanted to eat here since it had been so long. My buddy got excited too because he loves the steak and cheese subs which is essentially a Philly cheesesteak . Off the top, my sandwich was decent but unless I'm misremembering it, the sandwich contents are a lot smaller than they used to be. The meatballs used to be so big that the sandwich was basically an open face with two giant meatballs and a large slab of cheese melted over it. The sandwich today had wall smaller meatballs which were consumed by the bread. The majority of it was bread with hardly any meat and the cheese was melted across the top. Still, it did what it was supposed to do; filled me up. This place does great business and I'm sure they have other good sandwiches but I doubt I'll be back. The meatball sub has always been a favorite of mine but todays meal seem to give credence to the adage that you can't go home again.

I came here October 6 , 2021 with one of my high school friends who now lives in Laurinburg and I live in Las Vegas , Nevada. We were driving around town and reliving those days of growing up in Bennettsville and going to school there. We graduated in 1985 , Green Gremlins ! This was my fathers favorite place to get a footlong chili dog with onions and I would always get a chocolate dipped ice cream cone. So , of course I had to honor his memory and get one. Well they were out of footlongs , so I got 2 regular chili dogs with no onions for me , but we did get onion rings and french fries. I have to say they are still the best chili dogs I've had and I have been all over the country and several countries while in the Army. If you were to can that chili sauce they would make a fortune ! They now have a dining area inside , but we ate outside at one of the picnic tables near the creek. When we were in high school everyone used to ride around Dairy Dream and hangout in the back parking lot, small town living. Back in the days they only had an outside window that you would order your food and pickup from. They had picnic tables outside or you could eat in your car. The selection of food is way more than when I was a kid too. I'm so glad to see they are still in business and a local favorite. So many things from our childhood have disappeared and only live in our memories. The sign is always up high and filled with uplifting bible quotes.
