I signed for yelp just so I could write this review and spread the word...
Twice a year during the High Point Furniture Market the Parson's Table is open for business. It's organized and run by the women of the First United Methodist Church. And EVERYTHING is homemade and served cafeteria style... The selection includes soup, chili, salad, pimento cheese, egg salad, ham and turkey sandwiches (on homemade wheat and sourdough bread), as well as an assortment of cookies, cakes and pies. Everything is made by the church members and the profits go back into various programs so they can "love on the children" (as said to me by one of the many sweet ladies).
The Parson's Table is in the basement of the church and is not religious in any sense. The ladies wear cute aprons and work hard making and serving their food and waiting tables (yes, they refill your sweet tea and clear your tray). They even have someone at the entrance to greet you. It's not fancy, but it's good and you can't beat the southern hospitality and the prices. A sandwich, drink and slice of pie will run you about $8 and it all goes towards a good cause.
My boss and I go here everyday while we're at market. It's an easy walk from the IHFC and the red line market bus makes a stop right out front. Please check it out next time your at the High Point Furniture Market. read more
