The service, however, was really good. Everyone we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and the milkshake was delicious. My biggest concern was the cleanliness. All of the tables we saw, both inside and outside, were dirty, and there was actually a roach on the counter while we were ordering, which was pretty hard to overlook. There was also a man hanging around the restaurant who seemed like he may have been connected to someone working there. I obviously don't know the situation, but his presence made me a little uncomfortable. Overall, the prices are reasonable and it's a decent value for the money, but between the cleanliness issues and the overall experience, I probably wouldn't return.

Our server, James G, was fantastic. Such a warm and engaging person. The atmosphere is classy without being pretentious. The food was amazing--highly recommend the burrata, the BBQ pork sandwich plate[ a 'daily special', may not always be available], the truffle fries, truffle mac and the absolutely divine multi-layer Chocolate cake. James was a great mixologist, and I tried both the Hibiscus Sour and the Dreamsicle. Both were great, but my fave was the Hibiscus Sour. There is also a butcher shop at the front and the very sweet expert helped us to pick out a A5 Wagyu steak that we're really looking forward to trying. If you're in Columbia or the surrounding areas, I would truly recommend giving Prime and Pint a try. Would we drive from Huntsville to go here again? Absolutely, yes!

Overall, great spot for good food and drinks. I'll definitely be back!

Fried Tater Cafe is not that place. This is the kind of restaurant you hope to stumble across somewhere outside of town. An old building, a little history, straightforward Southern food and people who seem considerably more concerned with whether you ate enough than whether their plates are Instagram-ready. And then there are the fried taters. Crispy, salty, unapologetically fried potatoes--the sort of food that reminds you mankind occasionally gets things exactly right. Nobody needed to deconstruct them. Nobody needed to drizzle truffle oil over them. They needed hot grease, seasoning and somebody in the kitchen who knows when to pull them out. The rest of the food follows the same philosophy: familiar, filling and comforting. This isn't a place trying to reinvent Southern cooking. Thank God. It's trying to feed you. The old building and its history make the whole thing even better. You sit there eating fried potatoes and realize people have been passing through this little corner of Tennessee for generations. Places like this increasingly disappear, replaced by chains and developments that could be anywhere in America. Fried Tater Cafe still feels like somewhere. Come hungry. Order the taters. Don't count calories. You'll survive. Five stars.

Date of Visit: July 2, 2026…read more On this afternoon my wife wanted to take me on a country drive after an overwhelming day in Murfreesboro the day before. Murfreesboro used be an easy navigable town, not no more, so many people. So off we went. Heading out towards Chapel Hill we came up the Fried Tater Cafe. After yesterday (if your following) I needed something authentic to the area and this looked the part. We both agreed to stop. Walked inside and I knew right away this going to be great. We were greeted and told to sit anywhere. Nice. Found a booth against the wall and were given menus and drink orders taken. Drinks came while still viewing the menu. I almost wanted a burger but chose the patty melt with coleslaw. I was going to have fries but they have those Checkers type fries. My wife had the BLT with Tots and after having a couple of her tots I should of had the tots. My wife even agrees, these are the best tots she has ever had and she has tots when ever offered. These had the crispy outside that you can bite into without crushing and fluffy innerds mmmmm. But getting back to my patty melt. The menu said it came with thousand island dressing. I would usually hold the TI, but now I'm in a phase where I order with no substitutions. So I took it with the Thousand island. And so glad I did, it did something to it. Don't know if everyone does this but wow. And the slaw was good too, though I wish I had gotten the tots, next time tots. The wife and I will be back here next time in town for sure, if just for the drive. Peace.

I like to sample a variety, so I went with the Bobby's Usual of brisket, jalapeño cheddar sausage, and pulled pork with Bobo's Hot Corn + Hillbilly Beans. He offered onions, pickles, and jalapeños as side condiments along with their homemade BBQ sauce. I initially sampled the meats without sauce, but I have to say the sweet/smoky flavor of the sauce is a great compliment to the meats. You can tell Bobby learned his trade from Texas...solid brisket with a thin fat cap with a nice peppery crust. The pulled pork was perfect...moist and tender but still maintaining firmness. While the sausage is not made in-house, you could have fooled me. Nice crispy skin with a good jalapeño kick and plenty of cheese. The sides are exceptional! I loved the sweetness of the beans, and the Bobo Corn (I believe it's grandma's recipe) was addicting. Don't let the name fool you...there's a little heat, but the flavors are wonderful. I chopped a bit of onion and pork into the beans, a great flavor combination. The atmosphere is bright and open with some Texas decor...great place for family. Really good food and excellent service from this TX style BBQ spot...looking forward to my next visit to Columbia for more.

My boyfriend and I sat down and was waiting on our to-do order for almost 20 minutes until we started to wonder if they forgot to send our drinks out. A waiter walked out and was walking around confused. He then hands us a milkshake that is the flavor we order as we confirm with him that we are missing the other drink. He precedes to take the milkshake away from us without any explanation and says he actually saw our order waiting in the kitchen. 15-20 minutes go by and we see the young man walking out other orders as we still wait. He walks out to ask the bartender how to make one of the milkshakes, then finally brings out both drinks but we realized after he left that he brought out the same original milkshake that he took away... now melted. We were disappointed in the time management skills and lack of apology when we waited for almost 40 minutes for two milkshakes. I know that these are younger adults, but when you are serving at an established restaurant these things should be meet with sincerity and hopefully being able to learn from these growth opportunities.
