    This place is the burger BOMB! If you stop in ask Princess about the Foot Long. Try the other sides instead of fries.

    It is on the expensive side of things especially considering it's like a fancier Dairy Queen.

    Eating at dirt town deli is kind of like sitting down and your grandparents kitchen and eating at…read morethe table while they're cooking. It's not fancy it is in a store, they sell all kinds of old fashioned candy and bottled soft drinks. They sell peanuts by the pound tomatoes and several other convenient store needs. As far as the food goes they offer a special every Wednesday something like country fried steak and fried okra, and then they have all your basic southern Staples. One of my favorites is just a plain old club sandwich it's not fancy it's just your traditional club sandwich without all the bells and whistles that a lot of the restaurant to do to fancy it up. There's always older men sitting around telling stories from the way way back & A basket of fresh picked peppers on the table. It's a great place for comfort food, and making you feel like your visiting your grandparents.

    Let me be straight up about this: Dirt Town Deli carries only a modest selection of sandwiches,…read moreprepared on the spot, in a roadside stop that is easy to miss and looks as if you'd probably want to skip it, anyway. But please don't drive by: The food is very good. And you can get some night crawlers, too. No kidding. The homemade pimento cheese sandwiches are as tasty and fresh as you could ask. Burgers, fries, chicken sandwiches, a little salad. All very basic. Incredibly cheap. The pimento cheese is $2.50. Fries $1.75 No kidding. There are 4-5 big tables with seating for 5 or more. The cook serves your food, you pick out your own drink from the cooler. Most lunches for two come out around $6-7. What makes Dirt Town so special is the crowd. It's the neighborhood meeting place for miles around, and there "the liar's club" gathers for breakfast. That's a group of elderly war veterans (WWII, Korea, Vietnam) who sit around and talk. The conversation is friendly, animated and covers everything from taxes to television. Listening is like being in a time machine, and it's an amazing, wonderful experience. No one who walks in is a stranger, so be prepared to start chatting with your neighbor and new friend. No kidding. Dirt Town is open from 5 a.m. to 3 p.m. weekdays and Saturdays. It's between Rome and Summerville on Highway 27, about 13 miles north of Rome, the closest city of size. It's the friendliest place I've been into in years, and those little sandwiches will surprise and delight you. The conversation is priceless. And those night crawlers? Yep, that all the other bait you need and other fishing supplies is available here, too. You can even get some advice on how to reel 'em in.
