Went here after attending service at Marantha Baptist Church. This seemed to be a popular go-to…read moreafter service at the church, as I saw a lot of familar faces from the congregation and many of them had recommended the restaurant to us as well (or I guess not much is opened in the small town). The Silo is a small, meat and three, cafeteria-style restaurant, with a small, humble range of choices obviously cooked fresh. There really was only a plate option available with your choice of entree (fried chicken/meatloaf), 2 sides, cornbread, dessert (only pie that day), and sweet tea. The chicken was piping hot when we got it, tender and juicy but could've had a little more seasoning. The mac and mashed potatoes were decent, as well as the cornbread which had a nice bit of crust. I really liked the peanut butter pie I got, not too sweet and light enough to finish after a pretty heavy meal.

Honestly, it was just okay for me. We went on 10/14/18 after attending a Marantha Baptist Church…read moreservice. They were doing buffet style, they may do that all the time, not sure. For $9.95 you got, an entree (Fried Chicken Quarter or Baked Spaghetti), 2 veggies (MacCheese, Green Beans, Rutabaga, couple of others), Peach Cobbler, biscuit/cornbread, and tea. For a bakery, a DEEP south one at that, you would expect the cobbler to be really good...not so much. It was all edible, but something was off, perhaps it just wasn't seasoned enough. Like there wasn't any sugar or salt in anything. Everybody was super friendly, and these folks were FAST! The restaurant was clean and comfortable. It's one of the only food options in town, and the only thing available on this Sunday.

Follow the signs to their farm's store, which is chock full of all sorts of delicacies, and a lot of it has nothing to do with pecans. I mean, sure, they've got nuts. Lots of 'em in all sorts of shapes and sizes and flavors. If you make a pecan pie every fall, you could easily stop off and get your nuts from here, fresh and perfect, instead of whatever you get from your local grocery store. (And if you were to save me a slice of that pecan pie...) But there are jams and jellies and different honeys and candied things and a whole lot of whatnot. Even ice cream. The place was staffed by a handful of what looked like college kids. Maybe high-schoolers. I can't tell, anymore. But they were helpful, and they insisted that everything in the store once grew somewhere on the Ellis Bros farms. Good stuff. Check 'em out.
