Fine southern home cooking Just ask the locals. My daughter visited and her favorite restaurant was Mr Spud's. Best Chicken Fried steak she ever had! read more

A super homestyle place with a very friendly environment. I ordered the pork chops, and they were good; besides that, everything was good. Not memorable. The folks were so lovely, but next time I'm going for the potatoes, because that's what they are known for! There are lots of locals, and again, they are super lovely people. read more

There's a reason they've been around since 1922. Staff were very nice for how chaotic it was inside. The white fish was juicy, crispy, and soooo tasty. But the tartar sauce needs to be on every shelf in every grocery store. The baked beans were some of the best I've had. Baked potato was sweet, earthy and cooked perfect. The rice and gravy were seasoned perfect. Don't even get me started on the biscuits..wow. Hushpuppies were good. My only complaint was I order the hamburger steak and onions but I didn't get a whole lot of onions and the steak was very thick and a little dry. But I don't even care, the fish, tartar sauce, beans, and biscuits were hands down worth every penny. read more

I ate there for the first time last night and it was wonderful. The staff was so welcoming and courteous, and our waiter was hilarious. Very entertaining but right on top of his job and made sure that we had everything that we needed. The food was fantastic. Especially the grilled pork chop that I had. The atmosphere and the decor was good old mama and Pop restaurant. We will be back.if you want to try something new than you need to go to Mr. spuds read more

Great specials...especially daily specials. Food is excellent. Love the fried chicken and grilled pork chops. Biscuits and bread pudding are flawlessly delicious. Service is quick and friendly. Friendly, homey atmosphere. One of our favorites. read more

The service was great. The fried chicken, not so much. I ordered 2 breast. Both were split so they would cook faster. Cooks that have to split the breast are not good cooks. One was so tough, I had to send it back. I told the waitress to tell the cook, do not split the breast. I don't mind waiting. She returned with a fresh cooked one, which was a lot better. The chicken however, had no seasoning, very bland. I ordered the mashed potatoes off the menu. They came topped with gravy, which I did not ask for. The corn salad was warm and the greens were mushy. My husband's rice was so overcooked, it too was mushy. The coleslaw is amazing. Biscuit with lunch? Leave those for breakfast. They really should add cornbread. They do a lot of business so I might go back and try something different. read more

My wife and I returned to Mr. Spud's on 181 in Fairhope AL to enjoy some Southern comfort foods. My wife craved the hamburger steak and onions which was cooked to perfection. I am not typically a loaded baked potato person. In fact, I usually avoid baked potato's because of carb counting and in past experiences found most don't thoroughly clean, forget the value of salt, or burn the skin. Mr. Spuds knows "spuds". From the complimentary cup of potato soup to the perfectly prepared loaded potato. It was clean, salted, and baked to perfection. Flaky inside with a delicious filling of burger, cheese, and scallions. Our server was attentative and polite. We will be back! read more

I was with a party of 16,the server was exceptional but the quality of the food and all of the additional charges for the food turned my dry and tough grilled pork chops from $15.00 to $29.00. It was an additional charge to share a plate,additional charge to have anything on your salad other than lettuce. We as a group will probably not return to this restaurant. read more

Great Food and Great Atmosphere! Has a good variety for everyone. My kids are picky eaters but they always leave and clean there plates.

DELICIOUS again and again!!!!! I can't express how this place consecutively has delivered amazing food!!!! The service was good yet again as well! My last server, Tammy left more of a lasting impression but you can't always have the personality like her. Our server was good though and did her job. I can't remember her name. I got the blackened fish sandwich again but didn't change the bread this time so it was on a sub roll. It was just as good as the first time I got it. Hubs got a shrimp poboy but devoured 1/2 of it before I could snap a pic. I again got the strawberry cheesecake,yum!! read more

My wife and I love Mr Spuds and visit often. Good country style cooking and make sure you don't pass on the fried shrimp. They fried perfectly with a light batter and always in fresh grease. The rolls are very tasty too. read more

Absolutely incredible! 10/10 this was the BEST burger I've had in the South. The potato soup and homemade roll with honey butter . We sat outside on the covered porch and enjoyed soft lighting & listening to the crickets chirp while we ate. Gabbi was our server and she DID NOT disappoint! She spent a few extra minutes with us telling us about the history of Mr. Spud's and recommended her favorites. We weren't just another table, she made us feel welcome. The whole atmosphere will bring you back time after time. True southern hospitality! read more

Nice place for some good country style meals like mama used to make. I had the day's special and it was really very good: beef tips and gravy over rice, turnip greens, mashed potatoes and peach cobbler all for $10. My husband had the Moo Burger and it was the best bleu cheese burger with onion rings we have ever had; yes, looked so good I had to steal a bite, yum! The service is good, the parking is good, and the decor is interesting: be sure to take a peek at the baby possum. read more

Everything here is fantastic. Never a bad excuse. Constantly good. Great burgers and seafood.

Amazing service and food. Great location. Menu is full of good southern dishes. It's family owned as well.

Was here over the holidays visiting and I did not feel welcome at all . To be completely honest I felt like the waitress immediately did not take kindly to our group. Not sure if it was a bad night but it certainly felt uncomfortable. Didn't say anything until someone else brought it up on the way back to the hotel. I'll be fair and say my girlfriend loved her Cajun crab and the food was okay but certainly not worth feeling like a nuisance to an establishment I'm giving money to. Don't let my review discourage you though My experience might be unique read more

Service was good. The server was nice and pretty attentive. The food was mediocre all around. Burgers ordered medium, cooked over well done. Fish portions skimpy. Similar experience twice in a row. We will not be returning. read more

This was kind of a plain looking place from the outside. It was full of people, many locals. The food was good and our waiter very attentive. This was a very good stop on our way through the area. read more

We love this cafe!!! Service is fast and attentive. You can't go wrong with their fried chicken!!! There are always specials and fabulous desserts. The serving sizes are very generous and we usually have enough for lunch at home the next day. Prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get. Give Mr Spuds a try, you might just find your new favorite meat and three. read more

This place is a strong four. Super nice staff and excellent food. The complimentary potato soup is so good you should order a large bowl with your meal. It's a headliner. Also good was the country fried steak, the fried okra. The fried crab claws were very good. The po boy was okay, probably would change that part of the order next time. Also a minor order mishap was handled very well. Often a good rebound can more than make up for a small error. A suggestion: have a basic baked potato on the menu. That's what we came for. The sidetrack was great but there's no basic baked potato on the menu. Solid four star here. read more

Always enjoy getting togo's from Mr Spuds....yum. Friendly staff, always happy to take a call. Good job peps. read more

Highly recommend this place. We drive over from Pensacola about once a month to eat there. Great homestyle cooking. Fresh veggies, great fried chicken. Have never had a bad meal there. read more

I found this place by accident and I was not disappointed. The food was so good. The service was fast. The pie was sinful! I'll be going back. Casual place: When I saw the parking lot full with work trucks, I knew it was going to be good! read more

Great food and good service. The luncheon specials are always good. Great country style cooking.

Had lunch here in the chicken sandwich and fries were really great! Took home a piece of carrot cake and it was equally exceptional. The staff are courteous and professional. In fact, the attendees were the fastest I've ever seen. They gave great attention to detail. Try it, I think you'll like it. read more

I've been to Mr. Spuds several times, and I am never disappointed. My favorite menu item is their catfish, but everything I've tried is amazing. All the servers are kind and attentive as well. Consistent and delicious! read more

Had lunch here today and the food is always consistently good. Nothing spectacular but consistently good southern food. I had the daily special which was country fried steak and you get to choose 2 sides. The fried squash was really good and crispy. It's very hard for fried squash not to go soggy. The rice and gravy was your basic white rice and brown gravy. My husband had the blue cheese burger and it was great and I'm not even a big blue cheese fan. He had the onion rings that were from scratch with a remoulade that was very good. The sweet tea is always excellent. They were very busy for lunch and the server seemed a bit frazzled, we waited a while to be greeted and for drinks but I'm thinking she just had a large section at the time. Maybe not a quick lunch break place but definitely worth going! read more

We had a group of people so we ordered 3 of the family chicken dinners, the food was delicious, green beans are a must! The Mac and cheese bites were fun! Our service from Jason was amazing! I'd go back just for Jason alone! read more

Perfect southern lunch. Would eat there everyday if I could. Great prices and big servings. read more

The food is extremely good here as well as the service. We have eaten in a couple of times and the hamburger steak is fantastic as well as the shrimp. Many great sides to choose from also. Mac and cheese, turnip greens, green beans and the soup are all great. The white fish grilled is also awesome. The inside is very cozy but roomy enough that you do not feel crammed in. I highly recommend Mr Spuds. Online ordering is also very easy. read more

Homestyle cooking, excellent service, and a cozy corner to have a nice conversation. We had the daily special of fried chicken with two sides and biscuits with honey butter. The macaroni and cheese and barbecue beans were great. I will definitely come back and bring my friends. read more

Had the fried whitefish with turnip greens and fried okra. Not pictured was a strawberry cheesecake taken to go and it was absolutely delicious! They give you potato soup and buttered bread rolls as an appetizer and was delicious as well. Recommend going to this restaurant if you're in town! read more

We were in town for a soccer tournament and found this cute mom and pop place. We both ordered a Saturday lunch special, and were happy with our meal. They serve these BIG biscuits with a sweet butter with your meal, very good. Our waitress and other staff were extremely friendly. Would absolutely visit again. 2 meals with drinks for $26. read more

If you are looking for a meat and 3 this is the place! Their fried chicken is the best! OH and the fried okra!

The food at Mr Spuds was very good. We went with another couple and after placing our orders we're treated to a complimentary small cup of Potato Soup served with a warm roll. A welcome surprise. For our meals we had Chicken Tenders and Country Fried Steak. All accompanied by various side dishes. All were served warm and to eat! It's a family friendly atmosphere with friendly employees and attentive servers. read more

At best, Mr. Spuds is average. The vegetables are basically dumped out of a can. I ordered the mashed potatoes which (unfortunately for me) came with gravy. "With gravy" was not specified on the menu and when I sent them a message suggesting it should be, there was no reply so basically zero concern for customers. read more

The food and service were both excellent. It was a treat as good service and good food are hard to find lately. Will return next time we are in the area. read more

I joined my husband's Harley Owners Group (HOG) for lunch today at Mr. Spud's. What a great lunch spot!! The Saturday specials were listed on the napkin box on the table which consisted of a meat plus 3 sides for $9.99. The waitress took our drink order and brought pans of hot out of the oven large biscuits with containers of honey butter. Wow! These biscuits were amazing!! I chose the fried chicken with sides of corn nuggets, slaw and pear cobbler. Everything was fresh and delicious. Service was excellent for the group of 9 at our table. This restaurant is a gem on the corner of Highway 181 and County Rd. 44 in Fairhope. read more
