    Old school fanfare
    Cassandra W.

    Enjoyed the food, fast friendly service. Lots to see in decor, your eye leads you around the room; a walk down memory lane. Great menu options. I would recommend this as a good lunch/dinner option.

    Turkey Burger with onion rings
    Robbie C.

    Located in the quaint small town of Graham sits this old time diner type of restaurant. Prices are very reasonable. Servers were very friendly and chatty. Food is cooked to order in the back, they have milk shakes on the menu but when hubby ordered one, they had run out of milk. He enjoyed a root beer float instead. My turkey burger was a bit on the dry side but the onion rings were perfect. Hubby had ordered cheese fries and told server they were over cooked (I thought they were perfect) so they made him another huge batch to his liking. Nice when a place goes the extra mile to please.

    This was a good home town type of place that served good food at a very fair price. I really appreciated the friendly service while we were there & all the stuff they had on the walls to look at. This is a good place to take a family that won't kill your pocket book and you'll walk out of here with a smile on your face.

    A neighbor suggested this place and recommend the breakfast. It's located downtown so parking can be tricky. The inside was quiet, clean and inviting. They have a lot of vintage items on the wall and they sale old pop soda. It's a seat yourself style and they have tables and booths. The breakfast menu is small. Prices are very affordable and service was decent. The food took a while to come out but it's cooked to order. Once the food came out it was very basic American food. The kiddos got pancakes and they were huge and fluffy! Overall the experience was cool but not awesome

    Ordered breakfast items with coffee, we both are having omelette's , cheese and veggie with sourdough toast. Service was quick, orders taken and coffee on the table. The Ambience is definitely old school

    Chicken pita with fries
    Denise C.

    Good solid small town place! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. The chicken pita was good and the fries were perfect. Next time I'll try the Rueben for sure! They have a good selection of interesting bottled soft drinks you can buy to take home and a wide selection of jams and relishes for purchase. I enjoyed the experience and will come back again!

    Chicken cordon bleu and onion rings
    Danielle H.

    As a fan of Sutton's iconic Chapel Hill location, I hoped I'd enjoy the Graham branch just as much. I'm happy to say I did! Sutton's at the Wrike is a no-frills sandwich/burger spot with a wide array of bottled sodas, candy, and homemade sauces, pickles, and jams for purchase. I went with the chicken cordon bleu sandwich and it was delicious! The grilled ham and Swiss cheese imparted a ton of flavor. The chicken tenders were pretty good, though a teensy bit overcooked/dry. The onion rings were tasty without being too greasy. My husband went with a cheeseburger and fries and really liked his meal too. The prices are reasonable - less than $10 for a burger or sandwich, side, and drink. They have cherry and vanilla syrups to add to your soda, and I'd be down for trying a milkshake next time I'm there. The servers were all very welcoming.

    Sutton's drug store in Chapel Hill has been a fixture for nearly 100 years. A few years ago they opened a branch office in quaint and cute Graham, NC. The space they occupy was also a drug store for decades (Wrike's), and Sutton's paid homage to Wrike's by naming their new location Sutton's at the Wrike. Hence, the odd sounding name. Inside, you will find some very good food, an array of candy, and the largest and most diverse soda selection I've seen in my life. They have every imaginable minor brand bottled soda from yesteryear and today. If they still make it, Sutton's at the Wrike has it. As for the food, it is difficult for me to resist a Patty Melt, so I ordered theirs along with a hot dog All the Way. The Patty Melt was very good, with just the right amount of onions, a nice-sized burger patty, and it was grilled perfectly. Be advised that they add mushrooms and 1000 Island dressing to their version of the Patty Melt. Oddly, mine didn't have mushrooms, though. The patty was the slightest bit overdone, but it all still tasted very good. The hot dog All the Way was excellent. The bun was lightly toasted, the wiener was good, and both the chili and slaw were tasty. Sutton's at the Wrike is worth a stop if you're in the Graham area if for no other reason than to see their impressive soda collection. And you can also get a very good lunch while you're at it.

    This is a very interesting place, nothing super special about the food but it is good and staff are very friendly. I was here with a local friend while riding around town. Our server suggested a burger and I was happy with it. Atmosphere is interesting with bottles of drinks and candy along one wall and models and such along the other. I'd for sure check it out if around the area.

    Starting off a self-directed food tour here at Bull City and we were the first ones in when they…read moreopened at 11:15. This was a great spot to start, get in the vibe and have something to eat. It's friendly and it's relaxed. We sat at the bar and were well served and had a good time. We started off with the jalapeno poppers which were tasty even if they didn't have much hot to them. Five stuffed jalapeno peppers which were tasty but unspicy. The buttermilk dip on the side is great for cooling down the heat but it wasn't needed today. It's super that they pour half pint beers which was a real plus when you're just looking for tastes and not a huge meal. The burgers did look tremendous and well presented with a 6 ounce patty, which is a bit more than a third of a pound making for a big meal. Too much for us on this trip today, but I am sure that I'll be back. [Review 1161 of 2026 - 4810 in North Carolina - 26340 overall]

    A hidden gem! We stumbled upon this spot while passing…read morethrough Durham on our way to the beach for Labor Day weekend. We were warmly greeted as soon as we entered and the bartender explained how things work: order at the counter or sit at the bar for full service. We chose the bar. I had a Lakewood Lavender Lemonade and it was so refreshing. The bartender was super kind and it was fun to watch him up close and personal. I ordered a Burger bowl with fries and Gouda cheese sauce. Oh my! The medium well done burger was cooked and seasoned to perfection and sat atop a bed of some really good and guilt-laden fries. I chose to pour the cheese sauce on top and it was a smart move. Definitely check this spot out if you're in Durham or passing through like we were.
