    Poor Boy all the way with tots. At 9:30am.

    I love this place! Breakfast is on point. They will customize anything no issue. They open early and will fix lunch burgers etc for breakfast if you wish. Long time employees treat everyone well. Easy street parking on Main Street in Cherryville. Handicap parking within feet of the door. Your coffee or drink will never get low. They even give you a to go cup (full) for your beverage. Prices are very reasonable. When you realize you see a lot of the same people there eating each time you go you know they come back for a reason. Cherryville is a small town. If you're in the area check this place out. Has gone downhill since my review. Seems to have cheaped out on product. Not many breakfast non chain options in Cherryville.

    Wait time is LONG even though only a few customers in restaurant. Only allow ONE refill on sodas, and they charge $2 for that... the waitress isnt too friendly, time is: 3:00 pm july 21st 2020.

    Tried to eat, left more on plate as it was totally disgusting!

    We travel a lot and I must say that this was by far the worst meal I have ever had! It is not home cooked! Instant mashed potatoes gravy that tasted like paste. The okra was cold, but tried to eat some as I now have to pay for this horrible meal. We should have refused to pay but do not want to cause a scene. Please, save your money and go anywhere else but here.

    Greasy okra and instant potatoes

    Horrible. Save your $. Food from a can. We made a big mistake and it cost us $15.09 to boot.

    Ordered a plate with corn beef hash and extra sausage

    Probably one of the best restaurants in the area. Best fried chicken anywhere! Get the daily special.

    This was my first visit, and I can't say enough great things about this place…read more The atmosphere is fantastic, with both indoor and outdoor seating options (we chose to sit inside). The hostess and our waitress were incredibly friendly, and we shared plenty of laughs--she truly made the experience even more enjoyable. Then came the highlight of the meal: the burger. Simply put, it was the best burger I've ever had. Having lived in New York, Florida, and Colorado, I've tried my fair share of burgers, and this one stands above the rest. After my first bite, I turned to my friend and said, "I think I'm in heaven!" It was that good. I rarely eat red meat, but I'm already thinking about when I can go back--maybe even tomorrow. Everything we ordered was excellent--the beer, the salad, the perfectly crispy fries--but the burger was truly exceptional. This is easily a five-star experience.

We decided to sit at the bar since there was hardly anyone there and there were some basketball games on. We got service quickly & Ben ordered the hot chicken sammie with a side salad, I ordered the house salad with grilled chicken. We should have said something when we ordered about being on the clock but it was 130p before we got our food. I asked the waitress/bartender how things were going and she said "I don't know, I've not been to the kitchen". It was about 5 more minutes before the food came out and we were watching the clock closely and Ben said we were about 5 minutes away from where we ended to be. We knew we needed to eat quickly even though we were just about 5 minutes away. Ben's chicken was just huge chunks that looked more like nuggets than slices of chicken. He said it was OK. My salad was OK, they didn't have iceberg lettuce it was only romaine even though I told her I would like the mix, I didn't get it. I don't know what that's such a hard ask.

    I really wanted to like this place because the presentation of the food matched what you would…read moreexpect from a traditional North Carolina-style restaurant. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was very disappointing. I ordered burger steak with slaw, mashed potatoes, and gravy, while my sons ordered hamburgers. The meat in both meals felt extremely crumbly, almost as if it contained a large amount of breadcrumbs and very little actual meat. The flavor was far from what you would expect from quality beef and honestly tasted like everything except real meat. The mashed potatoes and gravy were average at best, and even the coffee tasted extremely weak, almost like flavored water. The only item I genuinely liked was the coleslaw. The wait staff were polite and genuinely tried to make the experience pleasant, which I appreciate. However, people primarily visit restaurants for the food, and sadly that was the weakest part of the experience at Small Town Kitchen in Cherryville. On a scale from 0-10, where 10 is excellent, I would honestly give the experience a 1, mainly because the coleslaw was decent. I hope the restaurant improves the quality of its meat and overall food preparation because the location itself has potential.
