    This is my buddy

    Here with the crew showed up with my four buddies. I am actually still here, just sitting on the seat in the room inside the building where you are allowed to relieve yourself. Guess it went through fast, that's what good food does to you. Talking about kids with two of my buddies. One of them has 2 kids and 14 grand kids. I haven't really done the math yet but I am hoping to once I pull my calculator out. I was asking the other buddy who has 5 kids about if he's done. This is a great establishment to talk about families and how to have kids. I have already said this to all my yelp followers but I will be a stand up father. Thank you.

    Chicken fried steak, Mac and cheese, collards, chocolate cake, and cornbread.

    Great food, great service! The restaurant is clean, and the staff are wonderful! Our meal was hit, fresh and very well seasoned. I love the meat and three style of the restraint and would recommend to anyone! I had the chicken fried steak, Mac and cheese, and collard greens. Everything was fantastic!!

    2 eggs, grits, toast and sausage with pancake added

    Longtime local diner and their food and staff show the love for the community! I had the breakfast special (and I added a pancake!). Great family atmosphere in the restaurant.

    Food was very good!! Nice restaurant. I loved the dessert, chocolate delight. Will definitely eat here again. Prices are reasonable too.

    As always found this joint with Yelp and was not disappointed. Went on Saturday morning so not crowded. Fried chicken was crispy fried on outside and moist inside. Macaroni and cheese was as good as I have ever had. Next trip down to this area will find me back here!!

    Thank you!!!

    Great food. Only issue is it's closed on Saturdays. Hidden gem in Pendleton. Food is always fresh and delicious with great customer service.

    This is a sweet little bakery and cafe on the square of the historic town of Pendleton. I have been…read morehere several times and have enjoyed myself each time. One side has a bakery where you can watch the delicious goodies being made. The other side is a small cafe. Although there is limited seating I have never had to wait for a table. I haven't gone on the weekend (pretty sure the Sunday morning brunch would be a different story). A friend and I met for lunch at 1:00 pm on a Wednesday. My friend had the Café Club with the pasta salad and a sweet tea. I had the Quiche of the Day, the pasta salad and a hot cup of Clemson Sunrise (Vanilla, Caramel & White Mocha). The pasta salad wasn't my favorite-next time I'll give the potato salad a try. The service and food were very good. The café closed at 2:00 pm. Since we were still visiting, my friend and I grabbed our drinks and walked a few steps to the center of the lovely town square and found a swing to continue our conversation...but that's for another review. The Village Bakery & Café is worth a visit whether it's to grab something from the bakery and enjoy a cup of coffee or to meet a friend for breakfast or lunch. Lovely outing.

    Arrived at Strickland's late one morning for breakfast. The Yelp ratings set high expectations,…read morewhich were thoroughly met. We were promptly greeted and seated. The restaurant is plainly decorated with about a dozen tables. We timed our visit perfectly since it seemed that soon after we arrived the lunch crowd began arriving, which quickly created a wait. We ordered the Eggs Benedict, which cooked perfectly and were topped with a well-executed béarnaise sauce. We also ordered a Meat-Lover's Omelette that was generously stuffed with various meats. We also ordered a stack of blueberry pancakes that were light and fluffy in the middle with slightly-crisp edges. Delicious all around. Service was attentive and efficient. The staff seemed to have multiple roles as you would expect in a small/family-run restaurant. I highly recommend you stop here for breakfast or lunch and enjoy delicious food in a simple atmosphere.

    So here's the thing, I was really excited to try this place. My husband and I showed up and there…read morewas maybe a 20-minute wait. Not terrible considering it was Saturday morning breakfast rush. We wait, the place is rather small, so you can see the tables and the progress they've made with food. We get seated about the same time as another table. The other table promptly gets menus and drinks. Another two groups come in and have a five(ish) minute wait and get seated and are immediately given menus, and we are still sitting with nothing, no one is even making eye contact with us, again small place and we were right by the counter. So, after drinks were taken at the two newer tables and we still had no menus my husband and I got up and left. The reviews made me want to try this place, but after that, we won't be back to try.

This diner is located in a back street, next to a market and close enough to a strip mall with restaurants. It's a quiet place although lots of people come in and out. We sat down, got our coffee, ate our meals, and wondered if we could eat more. The food was so tasty that we really wanted to take more food with us. I had a chicken fried steak and my gf had an omelette. Every table around us was busy eating, we were not the only ones who appreciated this food. For a humble place with delicious food, the prices were average. The coffee could use a little help, as well as the A/C, but all in all, it was a win for us hungry bears.

Plus his burger was so soggy because apparently it's not a thought for them to put the toppings on a burger on the side when it's a to go order . His bun completely dissolved in his hands and was far past just a little messy it was soggy, overcooked and impossible to eat .then they refused to give us a refund because it's out of their hands cuz they according to them didn't mess up the order because they didn't give us the wrong food
