    Gaffney, S.C.

    I had a Big Double Burger tray with double fries and tea yesterday. I'll be honest here. In the past this entire restaurant was kinda sketchy. I won't go into negative details because I've reviewed this place before. Believe me friends, this place has made an unbelievable turnaround and a five star impression on me! Want great service? come here! Want tasty, hot food? come here! Want to eat in a clean dining room? Come here! This is a complete and fantastic new trajectory! Congratulations! Very impressive and I highly recommend!

    The food was very fresh and hot and the customer service was just awesome. It's been a long time since I've been to an establishment and had awesome customer service in the fast food but the lady at the window was very nice and kind.

    I guess more people like to leave bad reviews than good?! The staff was super polite and fun to chat with. They accommodated my request for adding peanut butter for my burger. (Don't knock it until you try it!) The restaurant was clean, good size parking lot, and pretty convenient off of I85 at the Walmart entrance. I hate all the others had bad experiences here but mine was great on a Sunday afternoon.

    No problem with staff, but the cost has increased and product decreased significantly. I got home and was too tired to return. This very small piece of chicken should have never been sold as a sandwich.

    I only put a one star because I had to ... order was wrong, yall employees can't read? I mean come on I was the only customer in the line And y'all still got it messed up!!?? Also was nasty mayo on it and I took a huge bite and didn't see that because it was loaded with ketchup!! y'all sorry!!!

    Small burger (Cook Out style) & a Cheerwine. If you don't know, then you're just surviving, not L-I-V-I-N, man.

    No straws, utensils or napkins! For a place that only does drive through you would remember to give someone a straw!

    Yes, Harold's was featured on Diners Dives and Drive-ins and I've had it bookmarked since then. I…read morerarely get this far off the interstate but today, we're passing through Gaffney downtown and it's dinnertime and I figured, let's do it! Surprisingly empty on a Thursday evening, I was welcomed by the two ladies working and I took a seat. My drink and food order was taken and my cup of sweet tea arrived a moment later. The chiliburger plate with fries was the special dinner of the day. Two burger buns loaded with their chili and a big pile of fries. The chiliburger is halfway between "Sloppy Joe" and "Meatball Sub" and it's delicious. This was a good portion, very inexpensive, very filling. I enjoyed it very much!

    While on a road trip today, my daughter-in law and I stopped by Harold's Restaurant after spotting…read morea sign along the interstate. It advertised the location as one visited by celebrity foodie Guy Fieri, which piqued our interest enough to give it a try. When we arrived, we learned that Guy had actually stopped by years ago. Unfortunately, the waitress we spoke with wasn't familiar with his visit or what dish had earned his attention it was before her time. Stepping inside felt like walking straight into the 1960s: the décor, the atmosphere, even the energy gave off vintage diner vibes. The waitress greeted us with a smile, but seemed somewhat puzzled, especially when we asked about substituting fries on one of the menu items. She informed us plainly that no substitutions were allowed. My daughter-in-law and I both ordered the chili burger, which ended up tasting more like a sloppy Joe. The burger itself was thin, greasy, and reminiscent of something you'd find in a kids' meal. That said, the restaurant was clean, both the dining area and the restroom, and service was impressively fast. There's also a bar tucked away near the back by the restrooms. All in all, I was expecting something more memorable, especially given the celebrity endorsement. While the menu does offer many inexpensive options, the experience didn't live up to the hype for me. Harold's isn't a place I'll make a point to revisit.

    The wife and I were headed up I85 reading the road signs and getting past hungry. I know I…read moreshouldn't have, but my wife looked over and said, "Come on, let's give them the benefit of the doubt." So I pulled into the Cracker Barrel in Gaffney, South Carolina, already halfway prepared to be disappointed and planning my "I told you so" speech for the ride home. We were met at the door by a smiling host who sat us quicker than you can say "y'all come back now." Ann, our waitress, was at the table before I even had the menu open. She grabbed our water and coffee order and took off like she had somewhere to be, which, as it turned out, was right back at our table. We both ordered breakfast, because there are some things in life you don't overthink. Now, I dearly love country fried steak. Somewhere in the Good Book there's probably a footnote that says it's acceptable for breakfast, lunch, and supper. I was already feeling pretty good about my decision when Ann reappeared, unannounced, with a plate of hot biscuits and apple butter. No upcharge, no "would you like to add that for $3.99," just biscuits like God and Dan Evans intended. I have not had that happen in years. One bite of that apple butter and I was suddenly 20 years younger, back when Cracker Barrel was new and my cholesterol was lower and the world seemed a little less complicated. It tasted just like I remembered, which almost never happens anymore unless you're misremembering. The breakfast showed up just as I was savoring the last bite of that biscuit, and it was flat-out good. Everything was hot, everything was right, and everything was on time. No mystery substitutions, no cold eggs, no "we're out of that today." Maybe--just maybe--Cracker Barrel has remembered what made them famous in the first place: hot coffee, good food, and the kind of small kindness, like surprise biscuits and apple butter, that makes a road-weary traveler feel human again. On that morning in Gaffney, it felt like Cracker Barrel on a great day as it should be.

    A great breakfast dining experience. There was a small wait at the time we arrived. The hostess was…read morenice. The shop was full of items. I enjoy browsing through their store, especially around the holidays.  Our server was nice too. She was trying her best, and I appreciated that. The breakfast at Cracker Barrel is always good to me. My only complaint is that the infamous thick, crispy edges on the pancakes were lacking. There was still a very minor thin edge, but I wish I would've received those real Cracker Barrel crispy edges on the pancakes.  From the biscuits to the hash brown casserole, everything was quite delicious. I enjoyed the caramel latte.
