Slappy's was a really solid fried chicken spot, and I'm giving it 4 stars because there was a lot…read moreto like, but I think it has room to become a 5 star experience. The chicken itself was excellent. It was incredibly juicy, perfectly fried, and had a great crispy coating. My only issue was that the breading felt like it was missing a little something, maybe more seasoning, pepper, or some extra flavor. Growing up with places like Gus's Fried Chicken in Memphis and Nashville hot chicken, I think I naturally expect a little more punch from the chicken itself. The sauce they serve is more of a barbecue style sauce, and while it worked, I personally didn't love it enough for it to carry all the flavor. The sides were a mixed bag. The collard greens were really good and definitely one of the highlights. The coleslaw, though, was way too pepper heavy for my taste. Also, the piece of bread that comes with the meal was honestly not worth the calories. I'd rather see them either upgrade the bread or skip it altogether. One unexpected highlight was the pebble ice from the drink machine. Small detail, but it was awesome and definitely appreciated. Overall, I'd come back and try some different sides because the chicken itself is worth returning for. With a little more seasoning or some different sauce options, I could see this being a 5 star spot.

But the sides here suck. No fries - never has been. Cheese it Mac n cheese is just not aging well after 9 years. Coleslaw here is the absolute worst - like missing sugar to cut cabbage taste - it's been bad for a while. Potato salad is just mush - I would rather have grocery store potato salad. They have beans and collards - they are fine - but not what I want. Spend $21 for upper tray with a Cheerwine and tip and you want to feel excited. I just ate the chicken - took 2 bites of the sides - ate the roll and pitched the tray. Coleslaw and potato salad is a personal choice - so could just be me. I hate them. My table was split on coleslaw - mostly plain cabbage. Everyone agreed on potato salad - maybe old? Maybe recipe - maybe who made it yesterday. Been a diehard since beginning - over it. Not worth $21 for just me if I don't love it.

Highly recommend this spot in the hall.

Help, fam! You know how we do over here--you never really know where life will take us, and…read morehonestly, that's part of the joy. This time, we found ourselves in the beautiful state of North Carolina, specifically Durham. I was in the area for a pop-up event, and after a successful day, my family and I decided to explore some local eateries. I had never been to Durham before, so it felt like the perfect opportunity to take it all in. We came across a nearby food hall in an amazing walkable area. There was even a festival happening across the street, which made the experience even better. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming it honestly gave Mayberry vibes, like something straight out of The Andy Griffith Show. Naturally, we worked up an appetite and headed into the food hall, where we stumbled upon Patty Boy's. And if you know me, you know I'll never turn down a good burger. The menu had plenty of great options, but you already know my philosophy I like to keep it simple the first time. So, we ordered a junior cheeseburger with fries. Let me tell you... that burger did not disappoint. The patties were fresh, the cheese added the perfect extra flavor, and everything was made to order. We waited about ten minutes, but there were so many other spots to check out that the time flew by. Although we usually grab our food to go (especially with a two-hour drive ahead of us), we decided to eat in and I'm so glad we did. Hot and fresh was the way to go. The service was great, the food was even better, and it was the little touches that stood out. We even received a small rubber duck with our meal, which I thought was the coolest thing! I've had a lot of burgers in my day, but this one definitely ranks up there. I highly recommend this spot promise you won't be disappointed.

We also got their Kool Aid drink which takes you back to your childhood. My wife liked the honey mustard so much, she took the rest of it home to use at our house later. We'll be back to try some of their other flavors.

This is some good food. It was seasoned perfectly. Burgers were thick and tasty. The BBQ chicken was moist and flavorful. Creamed potatoes were chunky and absolutely perfect. Mac and cheese was creamy and cheesy. Baked beans were sweet although I was not expecting onions in them but still very good. Fries were normal fries, did lack salt but I mean you're probably not here for the fries honestly. If you've never been here like me, please visit. This place is good. I highly recommend to anyone!

Lately, though, it feels like the owner or management has stopped paying attention. The food quality has declined, the health inspection score has dropped, and the overall experience just isn't what it used to be. Today was the final straw. I walked in, stood at the register for 10 minutes, and never saw a single employee. I could hear people talking in the kitchen, but even after the door chime sounded when I entered, no one came out to acknowledge me or offer to help. After waiting 10 minutes without being greeted, I left. I genuinely hate writing this because this used to be one of my favorite places. I hope they turn things around, but based on my recent experiences, I can't recommend it anymore.
