The only reason for a missing star is that this environment is not for everyone. It's terrific if you want to bring your children to a place where they can totally entertain themselves while you enjoy a lunch with friends. I was looking for a quiet place where I could relax. That was difficult with a little girl (even though she was precious and cute) screaming and riding a skateboard inside. I was glad that she and her little brother could just be themselves and have a great time, but that can be somewhat problematic for diners. Just be aware going in that if this isn't your style you may just want to get a take out.

We discovered this wonderful sandwich shop in Downtown Elkin - thanks to David wt the Yadkin valley…read moreChamber of Commerce. Kaye's opened in December and features deli style sandwiches. The Buckin' Elk is a turkey BLT with avacado, and whatever fixin's you want. We also had the Italian - salami and cheese, lettuce, tomato, whatever you want. Great! Serving sizes are ample - actually, two could share a sandwich. Limited sides - pasta salad, etc. Packaged chips. Service was quick and friendly. ** They use local lettuce, from Greenhouse Towers in State Road. They use a pesticide free, aeroponic tower garden system. They provide greens for Hugh Chatham Hospital and a number of area restaurants. We highly recommend Kaye's.

They also give every sandwich a dill pickle. Nice touch My only recommendation, offer a water station with washable cups. Nothing crazy, just a stand with a water jug, filled with ice water and a stack of cups:) Enjoyed the back patio with umbrellas and a big shade tree.

Their sandwiches were superb, and the staff were nice and professional. Highly recommended.read more

This visit the person preparing my sandwich put a thin slices of meat on the sandwich. Other visits would have 4 to 5. It is the same product just different visits. The large inconsistencies leaves me to wonder wonder what I will get each time. I thought the purpose of a chain was to offer consistency so a customer can have a reasonable expectation. The service also goes from friendly and professional one visit to they hate their job the next. How do you rate that kind of business?

The lady we had went way above the call of duty in service and was so friendly with southern charm. Give this place a try, if there is a line don't worry it is worth the wait.

It's got the same vibe it's had for the last 30 years. Plenty of seating in their two dining rooms, with both booths and tables available. They have dinner plates, quick lunch foods, scrumptious desserts, and ice cream! The owner is always around joking and chatting with everyone and offers free ice cream for the kiddos, which we greatly appreciate! I love to stop in, even if only for ice cream. They have a great Hot Fudge Cake. There are video games in the one dining room so something for kids to do if you're willing to give them a dollar or two to blow while you wait. There is one comical thing about this place, though. The women's bathroom. It's clean and all, but if you know, you know. It cracks me up every time I go in there.

The kind of place you might see as you passed through these small towns in the 60's. It has the old charm with quite friendly people. It is a place of a long gone era that has survived into modern times by being what they do best. A local favorite for people looking for a simple place to eat tasty food.

It's wonderful to see how this historic landmark building in downtown Elkin has been so beautifully preserved. The lobby of the old theater is the location of the cafe. You place your order at the bar and it's delivered to your table once it's ready. The lady working at the bar was very nice and helpful. Although the cafe was pretty busy we didn't have to wait long for our order to arrive. They offer a nice selection of sandwiches and sides. The soup of the day was pepperoni pizza soup...didn't give that one a try but it sounded intriguing. The bread used to make the sandwiches was better than most restaurants and the quality of the food was excellent. They have regular events with live performances each week inside the theater.
