The food was honestly average, the chili cheese fries were good but I ordered a large and it looked small. It's in a small parking lot, so you may not find parking. There is no where to sit and eat outside. Great thing is that they offer delivery if you ever want to try them and not drive.

Had that snap on the first bite that was unmistakable. The chili wasn't from Texas but had beans and a ton of paprika. Fresh bun was deep pocketed so that the chili rode the bun well. Bermuda's were cold crisp and fresh chopped. I can't imagine eating two of these monsters. Don't try to eat one with one hand. Especially not in three bites while riding a bicycle. It was a fine chili dog that wore part of around the rest of the day proudly.

What a great addition to the Sugar Mountain area! Recently opened on the main strip between Sugar…read moreMountain and Banner Elk. Coffee and desserts galore here. The place has a great vibe with a cozy patio. Inside you can find souvenirs in addition to their coffee and desserts. They also own the gift shop with custom made t-shirts right next door. For dessert, they have ice cream, chocolates, bars and fudge. The fudge is amazing! It's soft and super flavorful. Some of the best we've had in a while. If you're in the area, this is a perfect spot for great coffee and desserts right on the main strip.

The staff is friendly, the fudge is creamy, not dry. They offer salt water taffy, chocolate bars, canned sauces, jams and apple butter. Many gift items too that are not your typical souvenirs.

Saw this place on the way to Lenoir and glad I stopped in! This was an old dairy farm and the barn…read morehas been converted to general store and creamery. One can buy ice cream and sundae's with ice cream made close by with all the toppings imaginable. They also serve coffee and drinks in the morning as well. The staff are awesome and very knowledgeable about offerings and history of place. The other half of the barn is used as a store to showcase and sell local products and makings from vendors. The upstairs in the barn is used for games and seating area for relaxing. Outside the barn on the west side is several yard games for kids and adults alike for entertainment. They sell several plants and flowers seasonally as well out back of the barn. Out back and beside the barn is animal pins along with feeders one can purchase pellets for ducks, chickens and goats to eat. All the animals on the farm are rescues from unwanted homes. This is a great place for kids or to hang out and relax within the company of animals. Also a great place for date night young and old. This is a fun stop on a day trip or nice evening under the stars with ice cream.

Craveable smash burgers and antique sides like scoopable fries and corn dip. Love this place!read more

The sliders, fries, and cookies from this family-run food truck are mouth-watering good!…read more You can go with the traditional slider--or you can discover some truly unique flavors in the Yosef (teriyaki sauce and pineapple on a slider), the Char-COO-terie (red-pepper jelly, goat cheese, and sweet-and-spicy pickles on a slider), or the Skinny Cow (black-bean burger with guac and cowlick sauce). Know that when you order your two smash-burger sliders as part of your moo basket, you have the option of trying two different kinds of sliders. You can also mix and match toppings. My personal fave is the bean burger with the char-COO-terie toppings. So delicious! Maple Moostard is a delicious sauce for dipping your fries! And the large cookies, called chews, are the perfect dessert . . . so moist!

Plentiful variety of booths with everything from candles to home goods to produce to baked goods and more. Because of the season, the produce booths were exploding with fresh veggies.

Something for everyone. Highly recommend.

I chose an ice cream sandwich with sugar cookies and lemons crunch ice cream. The cookies were so soft but strong enough to hold together as I chowed down.

You spend 5 bucks and get a massive ice cream sandwich with super fresh cookies. They always have great flavors of ice cream. This time they had a lemon crumble. I wish they had snickerdoodle which is my favorite but their chocolate chip was super gooey and really good. Service is always very friendly and the tables by it are always clean. Such a great place to stop off 321.
