    Food Quality: 5/5 Service: 5/5…read moreCleanliness: 5/5 Value: 5/5 Don't skip on: The Grits! They're super creamy and delicious! This was my first trip to South Carolina and the first stop was Southern Manners - it did not disappoint! We had a huge group of ladies to celebrate our bride and the staff were all fabulous - big shout out to our cashier/server, Jaden! He was amazing and so accommodating with our 19 top. The ordering was as smooth as it could be and Jaden made sure to go around asking any questions he had about the orders. The food came out relatively quick considering how many people we had and I really appreciate the staff. The pricing was very reasonable and i would recommend if you're looking for a real home-y feeling restaurant with good food! In regards to ordering, we had special accommodations because we were a big group, but normal flow has customers ordering and paying when they walk in the door and then the food is brought to your table. It has a fast food vibe, but I didn't mind it! The line moved pretty quick while we were there. Can't wait to go back!

    A 2 because of the 50 minutes it took to get our order (a pancake with bacon & Jenny's French…read moretoast). The food was good but not special. Many others who arrived after us were served before us. Even when we brought it to their attention, it took even longer. At the register, another customer was also complaining about the wait. So it seems that they lose some tickets while expediting others. Ambiance is waaay toooo loud! We will not return.

    Great spot on Main St in Rutherfordton. Excellent breakfast…read moretoo. Great selection of pastries also.

    First time here, had brunch with some friends. The restaurant is nice and clean . The lady at the…read moreregister was nice and friendly. But the numbers they pass out need to be taller. The waitress has a hard time finding our table she walked around at two different times look for our number and when she found our table she I'm sorry those numbers are hard to find. I think the numbers should be taller so the wait staff can see them. Anyway the food was good and tasty. But the falafel bowl is kinda dry and the tzatziki sauce tastes like sour cream. It come out of plastic container. I added Greek dressing to my falafel bowl. It was better. ( please work on the falafel bowl no one likes a dry bowl) My friends had gotten the Hot Mother Clucker is was so delicious . The nitty gritty bowl my friend says it was good but there were burnt flakes in it she wasn't sure what that was. Pearl Sugar Waffles were good by way to sweet. The "Big fatty "breakfast burrito was very small and thin for $12.00 not worth the price but it was delicious. I know this is a small town and heard this was a great place to eat. So we decide to try it out. Needs a little tweaking between the servers. Free water cups are 4oz , they should actually have clear plastic water cups that are a little larger. It would've also been nice to have a pitcher of water or something over by the tea. So you could fill up your own glass. When the Resturant is busy you had to wait to ask for a refill by then your food is cold. This place could be good if tweaked. If you're not sure about my review check it out yourselves. Good luck.

    Amazing place! My partner and I camped out an hour before they opened, afraid we wouldn't get a…read morespot since it's so well known! Since we got there so early, we had ordered from their cafe and their lattes were nice to sip on while walking through their edible garden! I really liked our server, a ginger man, very kind and quirky and it felt personable which I enjoy, he told us about being a Michelin recommended and I'm glad to have experienced it! For starter, I got the smoked salmon hash, and that was filling enough and very fresh! I had ordered their Philly cheese steak with auju and it was sooooo filling, I love a hearty breakfast, but I could only finish one half. I ordered their local sausage patty and it was nice and Smokey and savory! The grits were chunky and cheesy which I really enjoyed, everything was great! Love it! My partner ordered a classic breakfast and their maple bacon is sooooooooo good, I told him he needed to learn to make it because I want more! Their fruits seemed home grown and I really appreciate their decor of sexy veggies on the way! Such a cool place to eat and hang out!

    Order: Philly steak hash and chicken and waffle sandwich…read more They are super busy for breakfast and brunch. It was almost an hour wait for a table. They also grow their own herbs and veggies in the adjacent garden to the restaurant. The flavor on the waffle sandwich was superb. Waffle crispy and chicken moist. The hash was also great but was a bit salty.

    It's definitely a drive from where we were staying, and we missed the turn in, but it was well…read moreworth it. This is a converted home and really cute, I imagine if it was cold out they'd have the centrally located fireplace going, as is the AC was a welcome treat. We ordered a Southwest style omelette with hash browns and another two orders with French Toast, one with bacon the other with smoked sausage. The omelette was great, maybe bigger than expected, but that's always better than the alternative. The French Toast was also great, perfectly toasted with a nice batter. About the only complaint I can say is the server was a little overwhelmed and my dad had to go get the syrup. I would definitely recommend going for breakfast if you're in the area. Also, we had hash browns that good without have to ask that they be extra crispy.

So, the ambiance was amazing, the it smelled, hence the 4-stars. The service was fine, not stellar. They were busy with a full dining room and folks waiting for to-go orders. A local waiting on her order, was kind enough to chat while I waited on the one stall bathroom. She was so enthusiastic about the cafe I had to ask if it was her's. Nope. She ate there so often they knew her name and order. Nice endorsement. Our food was fresh, tasty, and plentiful. I'd order my cheesesteak sandwich again. It was a perfect balance of ingredients. My son's veggie quesadilla was loaded with garden fresh veggies. A hearty meal. My husband enjoyed the shrimp and grits, but his experience was that it was a delicious shrimp and grits chowder, not the usual grits topped with sautéd shrimp and a light sauce. Next time, we'll go in the fall and enjoy our meal outside. This is a great local stop. Try it. You'll enjoy it.
