Always good food. And service. Great little place to eat. When in FarmVille eat there is definitely recommended

What a fun place to visit! You definitely have to make the trip if you're ever even close to this area. Little Rocket is cash only (ATM on site with a $2.50 surcharge), located in the rural town of Farmville NC, and closes by 2:00 pm. There are a lot of items on the menu, which is posted on a sign above the ordering window. Make sure you're ready when you finally walk up because the employees are working hard and take their time seriously. This place is order to-go only (and was this way long before COVID). There are some benches nearby where you could enjoy if needed, but I wouldn't necessarily count on it - especially in hot summer heat. Most people drove off with their food or were were eating in their cars with the AC on, right in front of the restaurant where parking is ample. I ordered a chicken salad sandwich on white bread, and it was delicious and filling and only $2.75. I am not sure but it had a relish-onion vibe (but not in a gross way, because I know if I was reading this, that comment wouldn't be appealing). It was good, perhaps you could call it "southern style." My dining partner ordered the Rocket Burger, which was a two-patty burger topped with cheese, onion, house sauce. We also had the fries, which we found very appetizing and delightful. Apparently the place is known for their cheese biscuits (check their website). We couldn't order any fresh, but got two to take home. They come frozen with instructions for baking. Of note, they must be thawed overnight prior. I'll leave a tip once I try these out! I'm really looking forward to it. Haha, for additional insight - the person who accompanied me on the visit to Little Rocket, a non-Yelper, glanced at my review and said "4 stars? Really? I guess I could see that. I mean, I could see it as a 3... but I don't know... I think it should be 5 stars. It was so good and cheap! The attitude wasn't phenomenal but I'm willing to overlook those things. I mean, if I lived there I'd go there all the time and probably recommend it. I think it'd be my number one spot." read more

Who doesn't love a red hot dog with slaw and chili!!! Grew up eating here and I'll never be able to get enough.

This is a hometown classic for me. Anytime I stop in it's always love. On my last trip I purchased frozen cheese biscuits to bring home with me. Instructions on the bag on how to prepare (because you can mess up a great cheese biscuit). I prepared it as instructed and I'm about to eat the whole bag! My personal favorite to get is a wing ding dinner but because I was traveling I got a fish sandwich. AMAZING EVERYTIME! Great food, great people, great prices! I will always stop in on my way into town or heading out. read more

Little Rocket - Frozen biscuits - Burgers Near Me - Farmville, North Carolina

That first review should have said JUMBO sweet tea OR lemonade! You can even buy cakes and bacon grease if you please.

The food is fresh. The staff is nice. Big menu with good prices. Call ahead if you are in a hurry because they are usually busy at the window. read more

Great people and great food 10 stars dammit!!!I had the chicken fingers and fries mozz sticks and also a burger from the place like I said above CHECK THEM OUT S/o to my manz in the front window . read more

Walkup, order at the window, hole in the wall hot dog, hamburger, and biscuit joint. The menu, for such a small place (no inside seating), is broad, if a little redundant. There is a Baby Rocket Burger, a Rocket Burger, and even a Double & Triple Rocket Burger, as well as a Cheeseburger, a Double and even Triple Cheeseburger. There is a Long Dog (perhaps a foot or more long), a Chili Roll, and even a Long Chili Roll, A Fish Sandwich, a Double Fish Sandwich, and so on, and so on. There is a lot to choose from, much is good, little is actually special. The regular Chili Dog is very nice - a toasted, compressed bun (very toasted, actually), bloody red weiner, and thin, yet meaty chili - all in all, not a bad dog. The Cheese Biscuits are also nice - the gentleman in front of me in the small queue ordered 2 Cheese Biscuits and a Mountain Dew - so I added a Cheese Biscuit to my 2 Chili Dog order, sans the Mountain Dew - citrus has its place, and then not. To sum up - the Chili Dog and the Cheese Biscuits are worth a try. Don't know about the Burgers, could be nice. Side Note: this place also sells Bacon Grease by the 5 pound bucket - the uses are probably endless. read more

When in Rome. This place is classic small town breakfast and lunch. All the favorites and maybe a few surprises. Frequent breaks from service so check in before making plans. If you can get it, would recommend trying anything on offer. Never disappoints. read more

Loved the old fashion burgers and cheese biscuits. It's cash only but still worth it. Service is okay. Walk up to the window to order and it will not take long. read more

Awesome place. Quick food, great prices, friendly staff. Cash only but it's definitely worth the 2 dollar surcharge at the ATM if you forget to bring any. Been eating here for a while, 10/10 recommend stopping by if you're in the area. read more

The best of the best for Farmville! I've been going here since I was a child and it's an institution. You will never be disappointed with a little rocket meal. Grab frozen biscuits to go too to continue enjoying later! read more

Best cheese biscuits you'll ever have. True southern food. I've enjoyed the delicious cakes and food here my entire life. My grandparents love this place and it always reminds me of them! read more

Good service and food . Cheese biscuits very good. My daughter loves the turkey bbq. Overall food is good.

Little rocket had the best cheese burgers and biscuits. All of the employees are so friendly!

Awesome hotdogs and jumbo orangeades. Also a must try wingding dinner! Call in recommended because people pile up during peak hours.

Drove all the way from Rocky Mount (40 minutes) to enjoy their cheese biscuits. It was worth the drive.

I can't really rate this accurately because I have only eaten there once. We had a hot dog and fries which we had heard was the best. They were okay but we will go again and try something different. I have heard there burgers, chicken tenders and cheese biscuits are really good. It's a neat place though. You order and pick up at the windows. No drive thru which adds to the charm. There are plenty of picnic tables to sit out and eat under a covered patio. Takes you back to a simpler time, read more

Love the Little Rocket. Great small town grill. Best burger on the area. Very reasonable prices. Drive in and order at window. Friendly staff. Food is always fresh and hot. read more

Love The Little Rocket one of my all time favorite places to eat at. Never gets old and the people are always nice. Wait times can get long sometimes but if you call ahead usually by the time you get there it's ready for you and regardless the wait is always worth the reward. read more

Great quick food. Hot dogs with chili is always a go to. Cheese biscuits in the morning or take home frozen to have anytime.

Great place to get breakfast. Must get a cheese biscuit along with any order. Great spot to grad a quick lunch as well. Men and women working there are lovely. Few picnic tables to eat on if they weather permits. read more

Loved it growing up in Farmville, feeling nostalgic I decided to take a road trip with my wife on a Saturday for her to see my home town and to get some hot dogs from my favorite childhood hotdog joint. We arrived at 2:33pm on Saturday and they close at 2:30pm. Told me that they were closed as people were walking back to their cars with food in hand. Very disappointed. My hometown hospitality is long gone I suppose. read more

Only amazing things to say about this establishment. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner are delicious. You'll have to simply try it for yourself. You won't be disappointed. read more

Not my favorite place,Food is nasty. Husband like their breakfast,I would rather cook at home.

I love this little walk up food joint. My primary meal from here is breakfast and the biscuits are awesome. The staff is friendly give it a try. I'm hooked on them read more

I am not sure what the deal with little rocket french fries, they taste as if they are fried in old grease. I brought fish from them one time and I was greatly disappointed, I should of known better since this is more of an hamburger and hot dog joint. There is nothing like a bad tasting french fry. read more

This place is your typical local hole in wall atmosphere with good food. You walk up to an outside window to order. They have the BEST hot dogs I have ever eaten (red hot dogs with excellent chili on a toasted bun). Another favorite is a wing dinner, fried chicken wings, fries, roll and drink. For breakfast they have great cheese biscuits. Their menu is nice and random with some down home favorites. Always a favorite choice. read more
