This place looked cool from the outside but is honestly not worth the money at all. I've never left a bad review before so please know this was that bad. The first thing that sketched me out was that it is cash only. It was very confusing and the menu was very random. I tried the burger and the options were small or large, no in between, our server definitely lied and said "it's not really that big" and then I got a burger the size of my head. The meat was dry, the cheese was just some Walmart singles, bun was mushy. My husband got the Philly cheesesteak and he is not picky at all and he barely ate half of it. It was $30 before tip for some water and a burger and one sandwich. I said I wish we had just gone to chik fil a. The owner was nice but honestly I'd just call this quick expensive slop. Sadly will not be back :( read more

I stopped going to Cubbies because the wait staff and woman in charge all have bad attitudes. I have dined there numerous times and have tipped very well. They all know this yet are totally indifferent to me being there. A short curly haired fellow with painted finger nails rolls his eyes when asked if I could get a drink refill. The woman in charge is rude and stays on the rag!!!!!!!! The curly haired fellow has twice made me wait to pay my bill while he slowly counts the days revenue. As I stood there both times, he'd look up at me and burst out laughing. Also, different cashiers will bill you different totals for the exact same meal. The employees there only to get a check. They don't give a rat's ass about the customers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Great food and generous portions. Very casual and comfortable. Someone is always asking how we are and do we need anything :-)

My first time visiting North Carolina, I came here with my sister and her boyfriend, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. Upon entering we stood awkwardly staring at the staff for a moment and then were greeted by what looked like a manager (he was very nice and efficient). Service quickly went downhill, when in the matter of 6 minutes our drinks were taken and our order; very fast paced. To say the word "hovering" would be an understatement; I don't know how a place could be so attentive yet manage to be completely unhelpful. We were asked numerous times if we needed anything (six total) including attempts to clear our food while we had barely been eating for 10 minutes. We asked for drink refills two times, which were met with annoyed expressions (despite the server initiating). The overall environment felt very rushed, despite us being one of only four tables seated, and everything was met with irritation. At the register my sister was greeted by one of the two ladies (the other was standing beside her). She took the ticket and manually entered the items instead of a written breakdown or a receipt which felt odd and lacked transparency. Our total was $32, which seems a bit overpriced to me for the food we got, specifically the 4-inch-sized cheesesteak (there was a decent amount of meat to be fair) and a chicken sandwich that didn't even have a patty but rather two chicken strips. While up there, she asked for a to-go container, which was met with yet again another aggravated tone, and was withheld from her until she finished paying. My sister; full time server, still gave them a very generous tip (30%), which was met by an unfriendly "thanks." We also weren't acknowledged when leaving. Overall, the experience fell short, and none of us want to return. read more

Cubbies opened in 1985 and has been a staple in Greenville and the go to for ECU students. The delicious cheesesteak recipe has not changed and still rates #1 on my cheesesteak list. The staff provides outstanding customer service with a smile. Every time I visit, the owner greets me at the door. If you are in the Greenville area and have never experienced cubbies, make sure you put it on the list of things to do. Did I mention ice cold beer? read more

I've lived in Greenville during two separate periods of my life. In between those periods - one in the mid-80s when I was attending ECU - and the current one that started in 2017 when my wife wanted to return to teach at ECU - I have lived all over the US. The places included major food cities. San Francisco, Chicago, Nashville- among several other smaller metro areas. Cubbies opened during the first time we lived here. We ate there a lot back then. I'm happy to report that I ate there again for lunch today. In all my travels over the decades, I have NEVER had a better cheeseburger than the one I had today. It was perfect. Their other food is great also, but if the cheeseburger is your measure of a restaurant, get one at Cubbies. You'll be glad you did. Truly world class and with super-attentive, friendly service. read more

Seated quickly. Server was very friendly got my order and it came out very quickly. Hadn't been here in several years, moved away, and the food showed me why they have been a Greenville staple for so many years. I got the large cheeseburger with onion rings. Food was hot and fresh. The manager was going around checking on all the customers and the entire wait staff was helping each other. I was approached by two additional waitresses to check if I needed anything. Overall a really good experience and will not wait as long too return. read more

The food is good & hot but up to $15 for a cheesesteak combo now. The service was way too much. I was asked eight times in 20 minutes by different people if I needed anything. I've waited tables & agree with the team approach, but it was like being swarmed by mosquitoes, so I left before I finished my food. It wasn't busy, but the servers & manager were running around & hovering over tables like they had too much caffeine. It was not a relaxing place for lunch. I guess this is what the public expects now, but I didn't care for being pestered nonstop. Great food. read more

Food is good if you are looking for some traditional, dependable grill foods. I had a shrimp burger and it was good. Had a house salad and it was mostly head lettuce for 6$. The service is very good as they sort of all wait on you. It is an ECU pirate hangout. Take cash cause they don't take cards and the ATM charges 2$. I didn't see that until after I ordered. read more

Come here with cash only. They don't take credit cards nor debit cards. They do have an ATM machine in here but it didn't work for me for some reason and it definitely isn't because of insufficient funds. Anyway, I have been here 3 times and I am ready to review this restaurant. Each time, I got the same menu items. I ordered the hamburger steak with gravy, onions, mushrooms and peppers. Along with onion rings, hush puppies and a salad with ranch dressing. It was delicious. On scene: They have 7 TVs, a bar, an outside covered patio, 2 waitresses, 1 owner, 2 cooks, 2 ceiling fans, 1 manager. History: The manager told me that they have been in business for over 20 years at this location. It's in a great location too. If it wasn't for Yelp, I would have never known it was here. Not to mention, I used Yelp for directions to get here. In summary, great customer service, great food and pleasant atmosphere. What more can you ask for. Yes, I will definitely be back. read more

Good food. Good service ! Nice look inside. Abundant steak! Cheese steaks are not served in a traditional bun so a little hard to manhandle but good taste. read more

I try the Cubbies burger, hotdog, and their Cheesesteaks. They were awesome I give this joint 10 stars on my book. read more

They make a delicious burger! One of the best in town. Just remember to bring cash as it's cash only.

Stopped in looking for a cheeseburger and fries. Top level quality, service and cleanliness. Definitely will come back!

Honestly not the best food I've ever had, but I would probably come by to try something else. The waiters/waitresses were very nice. Seems like a cool hole-in-the-walk of Greenville! read more

Cubbie's - The Shrimp Platter/Plate - Burgers Near Me - Greenville, North Carolina

Cubbies! Burger is so good and love the homemade chili. Classic Gville spot. Love all the old ECU decor. A must eat!!

The food was super yummy! The service was outstanding and the restaurant was nice. We showed with a bunch of kids after a softball tournament and they were more then happy to have us , unlike several other establishments we tried right before with ridiculous wait times. We will definitely go back ! read more

Great food and nice staff. Love going to cubbies. Cubbies has the best cheeseburger in town.

Social distancing restaurant. They only have Togo orders. Curbside involves flashing your lights. They don't have a credit card machine. Cash only. They are overcharging their customers . I paid 18.00 for one meal. Nothing fancy just a burger and fries and tea. To be specific, I got a double cheeseburger with chili, fries, and tea. The gentleman came out to the car after I flashed my lights and gave me my food. The price he told me blew my damn mind. Btw, my fries were burnt. $18.00 for one person and one meal. Cubbies is normally and great place to get old skool burgers but I will drive over to hwy55 from now on. read more

Cubbies has it own trademark-- always delicious and great staff . I go for their signature burger and a cold lite beer. They are very swift with their made to order menu - hot and delicious. read more

My husband and I moved here a few months ago from Philly and have been looking for a place that makes a good enough cheesesteak (we've tried them everywhere that's had them so far) and this has been the best by far. The sandwhich had plenty of meat & cheese and great flavor. The meal was definitely more expensive than it should have been for the atmosphere but can't recommend the cheesesteaks enough (minus the mushrooms & peppers obviously) read more

It's 2023 and y'all still only accept cash? I read somewhere that this place had a good philly cheesesteak, I tried it and it's definitely a bottom tier cheesesteak with not much room to improve, you need to use sliced ribeye not ground beef, and the bread did not hold up at all. read more

I'm eating at cubbies right now. Food was amazing and it came out super quick because it is not busy. Which I really appreciate. I've almost eaten all of my food and no one has come to check on me. There are only 3 other tables here and I am one singular person. So what is the issue?? I shouldn't have to get up or wave someone down to come check on me. I don't appreciate the service being slack. Let's just say I never have this issue when I'm in here with my white friends. read more

Bro cubbies is the best place ever. Excellent food, excellent Staff, excellent service. Very kind and all is the food is tasty and priced well. I always make sure to stop here when close to Greenville, it is an all time favorite! read more

Five Stars!!! The burgers and cheese steak are worth driving 100 miles for and the fries are the best I have had in a decade. Clean and Service with a smile. The whole staff ( waitress and cooks) is awesome. Got to Love this place!!! read more

Phenomenal service the steak and cheese was tasty, probably will return to try the after 5 seafood bar. The French fries was just like I like them. And the cooks were also amazing. read more

Great food, service was fast. We will definitely be back. East Carolina university memorabilia everywhere.

Get a Cubbie´s cheeseburger with slaw and chili. (all the way) Some places call it ¨Carolina Style¨ around here... Bring cash - Cubbie´s is cash only. ¨Man who invented the hamburger was smart; man who invented the cheeseburger was a genius.¨ - Matthew McConaughey read more

Had a great supper tonight. Waitress was on point, food was hot and delicious. Owner comes in before we finish and pay and is mad that employees had not made chicken salad. Grills them out in front of everyone and drops the F boom. I dont care how good the food was! My 10 year old daughter does not have to hear your frustration. We went quite a bit to live out of town. Lost this family!!! Desirves no stars but it made me post one. read more

I came in on my thirty minute lunch break and ordered a grilled cheese and fries. 5 minutes later I see my bag on the counter. 10 minutes later that give it to me with burnt fries and a cold smashed grilled cheese. Maybe if the staff was more focused about there job and less focused on talking poorly of customers... It wouldn't be so bad. The winterville cubbies is waaaaaaayyyy better. read more

Finally got to this local landmark for it's well known cheesesteak! It was absolutely delicious! Ive had the real deal in Philly and Cubbie's will definitely fulfill your cravings. There was no grizzle or fat in the meat and even though they don't use cheese whiz, the orange american is hot and smothered in the meat while they're cooking it. Less messy than on top if you ask me. The roll was soft enough it didn't feel like work trying to eat the sandwich. Other good thing is the bread was dry. Not sopping wet with grease and you don't wanna eat it. They chop the meat down really fine. Peppers, onions and mushrooms yes please! The owner came over and introduced himself, welcomed us etc. That says a lot too. They've been in business 32 yrs. lots of TVs and an outdoor patio. Only reason no 5 stars is because the place needs some updating. I get that its local and more original than not but the floors looked a bit rough and the menus were sticky plastic and falling apart. We waited a long time for our food but it was the lunch rush, place was packed and the food was totally worth it. I will definitely be back again! read more

We finally had the opportunity to go to Cubbies, and it did not disappoint. My husband had the cheesesteak, and he was raving about it the entire time he was eating it. It held together well and was flavorful. He finished his meal with the banana pudding which he was in love with. I had the wings and was pleasantly surprised with how crisp the outside was. The hush puppies were great as well. Cubbies is a must go to. read more

I've only been here once and what I had was pretty darn good. We decided to sit outside because inside looked pretty crowded. (I will say that I'm glad I did because when I went in to pay, it looked pretty dingy.) The server came out to greet us and hand us our menus after we'd taken our seats. Service is really fast, even for outside. There were three servers coming and going every couple of minutes - to serve the food and to just check up on the patrons. I ordered the small cheesesteak combo. Combos come with a side of fries and choice of drink - I went with sweet tea. The drink is larrrrrge. The cheesesteak was a little smaller than half the size of your average cheesesteak. It came with grilled onions, mushrooms, green peppers, and cheddar cheese. The bun couldn't be seen under all of this though. So they do a pretty good job of giving you your fill of stuffings, which is always always a plus. The bun could've been a little more toasted but it was still good. The cheesesteak itself was excellent too. My friend is a native Philadelphian and she said this is the closet to an original Philly cheesesteak she could find in the area. Minus the cheddar cheese in place of the provolone, and I'll say she's about right. The meat was perfect - because of the look of the place, I thought the meat wouldn't be very good and would be stringy and hard to chew. Never judge a book by its cover, right? It was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Let's not forget the side! The fries had the crisp crunch! It's not seasoned, which I was grateful for - but there are salt and pepper shakers and ketchup bottles at the table for you to season as you please. Atmosphere-wise, it's the perfect place to come to with your friends to pop a beer and watch the game. There was a family and an elderly couple when I went, but they were watching the game on TV too. It's a little strange that Cubbie's closes so early (9 PM), but I guess they get enough business to be able to do that. read more

Visited G-Vegas for the day and had lunch with an ECU Grad at Cubbies per her wishes. Her favorite Cubbies in downtown G-Vegas is no longer, much to her chagrin, so we went the secondary location. Attentive staff, and the Restaurant is charming in a retro sort of way. Ordered the following:Philly Cheese Steak and Order of Fries (upcharge). 3 Star-Good sandwich sans onions! Not really a true Philly. Fried Chicken Tenders, Fresh Fruit and Fries. 3 Star- Tenders were cafeteria grade, Fries were scarce, but the Fresh Fruit hit the spot. Not a bad Lunch option while in G-Vegas, but not the best either. Average all the way around. read more

If only they took CCs I would eat here more often!! My husband loves their hot dogs. My 4 year old loves their grilled cheese. And I love their cheeseburger with mustard and extra chili and slaw. They only accept cash or checks, which I think is so backwards in a college town. Also, it gets super busy and the crowd and wait sometimes isn't worth it if you are really hungry. The staff is friendly, but mostly college kids, so you have to be patient and understanding sometimes with the service. Overall, this is a family favorite that keeps us coming back. read more

Order placed by phone ahead, not ready when arrived which is understandable... told that the order would be brought out upon completion. I watched the bag arrive to counter and 10 mins later had to still inquire before it was delivered (yes the same bag, now cooling). This, compounded with no mask enforcement, including no mask or cook staff has me second guessing why I stopped. The food was messy but had a decent flavor. All in all, the experience deflated any hope for the food. read more
