I checked their hours and I thought I am going to be sad if I drive here and the hours are posted wrong. Sure enough, pulled up 8am and they were open! This is a great place for burgers and hot dogs. Especially if you have kids, stop, they will remember eating hot dogs for breakfast for the rest of their lives. Carry out only, no seating. Cash only. Weird hours. They close 1p! 1230p on Saturdays. What??? Check hours before making the detour. The hours on the door says they close on the third Saturday of every month.

Overall a great place to eat. *side note, this place is CASH only but does have an ATM to pull cash from but charges a $3 fee.

​ High Quality & Healthy Options in Whiteville!…read more ​I stopped by Penn's Grill around 9:30 AM and had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere is calm and inviting with lovely local decor, and the staff is incredibly friendly. My waitress was very helpful in navigating the menu, which is surprisingly customizable. ​I ordered an egg white omelet with steak and cheese, and it was hands down the best-tasting egg white dish I've ever had--the seasoning was perfect! The steak was tender and juicy, and the homemade old-country style hashbrowns are a must-try. ​While the prices might seem a little high at first glance, the quality of the food absolutely justifies it. It's hard to find places in Whiteville that accommodate healthier breakfast options this well. Highly recommend!

My wife had the moose with tater tots and I had a chicken Philly cheesesteak with fries. All I can say is "wow". Everything was tasty and excellent. I topped the meal off with a Strawberry crunch concrete creation which was delicious with custard, Nila wafers, strawberries and strawberry syrup. Such a good dessert. We rolled ourselves out of there super full and very happy. We will definitely be back to try their other offerings.

I never had a burger at Highway 55 but was craving a cheeseburger and it was good. Good ratio of burger to bun (unlike some places where you get a thin, thin burger patty and huge bun). The burger was very good and my wife like her chicken Philly. Not sure if Orange aid drink is new to Highway 55 or they just have it at this location, but it was a great drink too!

Walking in, it raised many memories of my youth: not fancy or particularly clean (especially the restrooms) yet greeted by pleasant smiles, friendly servers & staff, always more important to me/us! Our server was quick with taking and returning with our drink orders. She followed with attention to the time we needed to decide on our orders. Further, she was one of only 2 servers of a completely full dining room! I'm so disappointed I didn't get her name...I just didn't want to interrupt her industrious focus. Each of the 4 of us ordered a brunch item: eggs, omelette, and waffle with either country ham, bacon, sausage and/or grits, and coffee, that my husband stated "was the BEST!" A disappointment I do have is the condition of the restroom. It neglects an opportunity to reflect the positive qualities of the "front of the house" yet, we would return to Waffle International if ever passing through again.
