    Chicken tenders and fries

    Service was exceptional and the food was just home cooking to hit the spot! Come her for breakfast ALL day or the best home cooking in the area.

    KUDOS to the staff for providing supreme quality customer service! I ordered the grits with drowned with sausage gravy! The ambiance is quiet and quite mellow! Thank God for Greg's! I highly recommend all to come and visit to support this local business!

    A visit to Greg's was interesting to say the least. It is a "seat yourself" diner but there is no sign to let you know, and we stood at the door for a good 10 minutes before I finally asked someone. The food was OK, but the service was nice. We had a lovely waitress named Sally, and she was very busy. It took a long time for tables to be cleared even during the slow times. I wasn't really a fan. The "home fries" had no taste or seasoning. The coffee was GREAT!

    The restaurant is set back a bit from the road with a big parking lot in front. There is a big sign at the road, so it's pretty easy to find. There are a couple businesses which seem to share the parking area, but it's not crowded. I didn't notice any handicapped spots, but I wasn't really looking either. We were able to park next to the front of the building, which has an awning that runs along the entire front so you can get out of the rain (or sun) quickly. The dining area feels large and open. It's not crowded together, and there are plenty of seating options. There is a chalkboard to the left rear with daily specials and other items listed. The counter is to the right as you come in the door. Our server asked us where we wanted to sit, so we picked a booth near the back. Drink orders were taken, and we read through the extensive menu. We came specifically for breakfast, and they offer many choices and include just about anything you can think of. I settled on eggs, biscuit and gravy, sausage, and grits. Those are my go-to items whenever I try a new place. The food took maybe ten minutes to come out, and seemed hot off the grill. The eggs were cooked a little less than I requested, but not bad. The sausage was done perfectly. The grits seemed like store-bought, but serviceable. The biscuits and gravy were excellent. The server was very friendly and experienced. All servers seemed to work well together, and I never saw an empty drink anywhere in the restaurant. Greg's offers a lot more than breakfast, so I hope to get back to try their other offerings. There are also a lot more breakfast items I need to try. I think I'll be coming back often.

    I been wanting to try this restaurant out for about a month now. I called them on phone and they talked me into driving the 74 mile round trip to this restaurant. Got their chuck wagon steak, fried okra, Lima beans and a cold fried apple pie to go. They didn't bother to heat my apple pie up either as they just gave it to me assuming i wanted it to go. I was hoping to eat the apple pie there. Lima Beans came in a small bowl and were actually good the more I have thought about it. They were very slow in getting my to go order ready as if though they were waiting on somebody to show up. Menu items to go ordered were: flounder, strawberries and bananas, and fried okra. Well, Friend actually liked all this food and given that fact alone raises the so called "bar" up. Final thoughts: I might go back and give them another chance. I also added their hours to the listing a few weeks before visiting.

    I like coming to Greg's for a few reasons. First, I like the area of Chickamauga. It's slower here, so expect that (all around) before coming. Secondly, I like the food. After seating myself, I like that I can chose breakfast or lunch all day, and they offer daily specials. For breakfast I usually get something like eggs, pork chops, French toast and hash browns with onions. For lunch or dinner I usually go with "a special", a meat and two veggies. I like the chicken fingers (with ranch and buffalo sauce on the side) greens, beans, cornbread and or rolls. They have good coffee and tea. Lastly, I like the price for the value. The kids usually get a $5 breakfast that includes 1 egg, bacon or sausage, biscuits and gravy or grits and toast. I recommend Greg's if you want down-home cooking, are not in a hurry, or want anything fancy.

    a plate of food

    Holy cow! I was working in the area and found this jewel on Yelp. It was exactly what I was needing today; good Southern comfort food. They had a special of the day which was chicken and dressing, turnip greens, sweet potato casserole, pinto beans and corn bread. It was to die for. Seriously. As if things couldn't have gotten better, the waitress was very nice and attentive. I will for sure visit this place again. I would've gave it five starts but I think it was a little pricey at about $11 for lunch (with water to drink)

    The whole restaurant! Nice!

    Great Food and Service. Salad Bar is not worth the price. If you are going to charge that much make it bigger with more options.

    When I am traveling, I love to find places that are not just about food, but about the experience…read more The Hatter Cafe is one. Picture a place that transports you into Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. That tables are all themed according to different characters. The waitress dressed like Alice. A small store - the Rabbit Hole - where you can shop while you wait. This shop has all sorts of merchandise that is Wonderland themed (as well as some huge, excellent cake cookies). Welcome to the Hatter Cafe. This is one of two spots you see recommended for Mentone, Alabama, which is on my route from Nashville to Rome, Georgia. The drive up to the place takes up up a road with some beautiful scenery. You pass through the town of Mentone and the Hatter Cafe is on the right. This is also a bed & breakfast for those wishing to visit nearby Desoto State Park, and its falls, or Cloudlands, which is a bit further. I have included pix of the BnB. Only 2 rooms, but each has a hot tub. The menu is limited and focused, although there are ample choices for even the choosiest of guests. Not surpringly, they have an ample selection of teas (and coffee for the non-tea lover). We sat at the Humpty Dumpty table and decided on the Ribeye with both Mushroom Gravy (mine) and Peppercorn Sauce (hers). Meal starts with a salad made from local produce, which was clear from the freshness of the tomatoes. Off to a great start. Then the steak. The sauces are on the side, so you can opt in or out (in other words, don't be afraid to order one). Of the two sauces, I thought I would like the mushroom gravy more, but the peppercorn was phenomenal. Veggies also local and prepared to perfection. This is one I would gladly return to in the future and may even book a room the next time. Thanks to the staff for allowing us to preview the rooms.

    Took a trip up to try the Hatter after having it on my bookmark list for years. I was excited as a…read morecoworker had been recently and enjoyed it. The drive through the Mentone area is always beautiful and there's lots of cool studios and artsy things to do in the surrounding area. I will say they absolutely delivered on the Alice in Wonderland theme. It's wall-to-wall memorabilia, decorations, and cute ideas that allude to the classic story. If you're an Alice fan...definitely check it out. I wouldn't mind a few more Cheshire cats, though. :) Service was okay, honestly a bit disheveled and didn't seem in the best mood. We arrived early for lunch around 11:15. They initially sat our party of 3 at a table with chairs for 8-10. My mom even asked if they were sure they wanted to put us there and they affirmed the decision. They seemed confused that we were there and unsure what to do with us, even though I don't think anyone else who came in after us had a reservation or anything. Anyway, about 5 minutes later a giant party rolled up and they wound up moving us anyway. Fortunately we hadn't gotten drinks or anything yet. Due to the large size of some of the furniture pieces, navigation around the restaurant can be a little challenging. Also, the chair I sat in at table 2.0 had a sort of musty smell that I didn't love, lol. Minor nitpicks but it does sort of add up. Anyway, we placed our orders for food. They have a nice menu for teas and I'm sure it would be fun to have a tea party here, but it was too hot for me to partake. My mom got the biscuit BLT, my dad had a turkey wrap, and I got the chicken and biscuits, which is a bit like a chicken pot pie without bottom crust. For sides, my parents got the baked potato salad and crunchy pea salad, and I got the southern hot corn casserole. The sides were definitely the high point. The pea salad was crisp and refreshing and the baked potato salad was creamy and flavorful. My corn casserole wasn't terribly spicy but had a nice blend of flavors and textures, though it was perhaps slightly overcooked (the cheese on top was approaching crispy). They also didn't initially bring it out with my meal, but got it quickly after I asked for it. The entrees, however, fell flat. Mine was probably the most successful but it was ultimately pretty bland and there wasn't a whole lot of chicken in the meal -- mostly biscuits and gravy/filling. My mom's bacon in her BLT was very badly overcooked (even for someone who likes crispier bacon) and the biscuits were pretty crumbly. And my dad's turkey wrap was super underwhelming, about like what you'd buy pre-prepared from the deli section at Target or something. I sound like I'm coming across harsh and I wouldn't say we had a bad time, just the food didn't really meet our hopes/expectations. Definitely delivered on theme and decor. I think it's worth a try if you're a huge Alice in Wonderland fan or just enjoy whimsy in your life. The menu is creative and breakfast offerings sound good; perhaps it just wasn't quite our day that day. I'm glad I got the chance to try it out though.

It has a bright and open welcoming vibe and our server was outstanding, responsive, courteous and efficient. The selection is large and both of our big breakfasts were very tasty and filling. I had the big bad skillet: scrambled eggs, skillet fried red potatoes and all the meats--bacon, ham and sausage. The combination really works! My partner had the Jack Benny, their version of eggs hollandaise but with a nice slice of ham. I also got their biscuit, which others had recommended to me. Huge biscuits are the rage but not really my fav. This one was crumbly but well baked. The blueberry jam gave it a high yummy rating. Know it is a new southern chain but hey this place and location made it feel like you were back home.
