What a great gem to find while driving through Thomson. Just off the I-85, it is so worth the short drive and the short line you will experience. The food is 10 out of 10, service is fast and attentive, again 10 out of 10. Price is very reasonable meat and three with bev is less than $15. Fresh veggies, home cooking, crackling cornbread (omg). Good portions too. Give them a try. read more

Sweet T's Restaurant - Sweet T's Restaurant. - Restaurants Near Me - Thomson, Georgia

A great lunch spot in Thomson Ga, that's open from 11-2 on the days it's open during the week, the line moves slowly, not because of the hardworking staff, it's slow because it's kinda hard to make up your mind with all the good food displayed in front of you when you walk in, and between the entree options, sides, salads and desserts, your pretty much going hmmm that good, but so does that, hmmm situation, but most people are in the same predicament, it's all really good, the crackling cornbread is 10/10 . highly recommended, Hope you like Elvis read more

Best fried chicken I believe we have ever eaten. We were in line with locals which is always a good sign. The cafeteria type line threw me when we first entered the restaurant. But one taste of the delicious , hot, crunchy chicken and we were sold. read more

What a gem! Great southern comfort food. I wish this place was open for dinner and the weekends too! So good!

SO good! We had lunch at Sweet T's while visiting my old hometown, and it was wonderful. It's in a building that I remembered being a flower shop, but now it's THE place in town for authentic Southern cooking. If there was any doubt, the waiting line was out the door at noon on a Thursday. The short wait was more than worth it. Amazing food, and such friendly folks. Truly not to be missed if you're in Thomson. read more

Great food, well seasoned. There is always a line outside. The tea is really good. The side dishes are my favorites.

Good food choices. Service is on top of everything. Friendly people. Nice location. Plenty of parking.

Absolutely delicious great food great customer service very country and polite Tyler Ørtégã rates this 5 stars!!!

The food was wonderful- I highly recommend the choice here pictured. The cornbread was amazing. I passed on the dessert here which I'm sure is a arrest-able offense at this establishment. We were treated very well by everyone and I really enjoy the Elvis theme. It create a great ambiance and every time I've come through, there have been a good many patrons! I've stopped twice on my way through Augusta and really enjoy it. Like country food? You'll love it. read more

This was your quintessential southern meat-and-3 kind of place. But the quality was very high, with lots of fresh tasty food. The service was good, and our waitress was friendly. When we drove up, the parking lot was crowded, and the line was out the door: always good signs! I don't often go through Thomson at lunchtime, but the next time I do, I will definitely go back! read more

I am a meat and three junkie and this place is one of the best! The food is hot, fresh and just darn good!

Great food Nice atmosphere Workers are very nice I highly recommend this restaurant read more

Down home southern cooking at its finest. It's a "fix you a plate" kind of place, which I love. We had fried chicken, fried squash, mac and cheese, roasted potatoes, and sweet potato casserole. Fried stuff could have had a little more seasoning but everything else was great. read more

Well my mother in law and I just ate here for my first time and we both agree to say it definitely won't be my last time! It's good down home southern cooking with a line out the door. I ate fried chicken and the breading was on the bird it was fried just right and meat wasn't dry, the mashed potatoes and brown gravy was good, I had a cucumber salad onions, peas green beans, fried okra with a slice peach pie and 20 glass of sweet tea for $24.65 the proportions were perfect for my 250lbs and 6'4" self and my mother in law she's a little girl but I believe she should be a competitive eater cause she can eat more than me at 5'0" 120lbs and late 70's! I left an additional tip for the woman serving tea she never let my cup get half way empty! Believe it or not there were a few tables that were open about eight seats but as fast as the people were coming in people eating and getting out, they also had a line to pay and some of them were takeout, but it didn't take long to go through the little girl at the register said they're open from 11 to 2 and serve on average about 200 people I believe it! I did see the line they had a chicken poppyseed casserole and sweet potatoes casserole with pecans and brown sugar both of them my mother-in-law ate them. They had a variety of different pies available for purchase for a slice and all the sodas that you would want! Needless to say I will be back with my wife and my mother-in-law and you should try it too.... one last there's a sign it says cash is king. They do take credit cards but it's a 3.99% surcharge on your card. So bring cash. read more

Great little find for some great home cooking food!!! It's buffet style but they serve the food and drinks. The food is protected behind glass so it's sanitary. The food is awesome. Best fried chicken that I've had next to my grandmas!!! My husband had the fried catfish and it was some of the best I've had out. Tons of good vegetables. Yummy biscuits. Desserts looked homemade as well but was too fool to have some. The service was fast, efficient and the price was the icing on the cake. They were getting people in and out with some super homemade food!!!!! Super clean too!!!! Will definitely be back to this great place. read more

Comfort food that is absolutely perfect. The seasoning in the food is 100% spot on. When you think of southern soul food, this restaurant comes to mind. Locally owned business, which I prefer. Go early, small dining room that's always packed. read more

Awesome family-like customer service. Food amount and quality is always perfect! The deserts are to absolutely freakin die for.. peach cobbler, banana pudding, red velvet cake!! You better hurry up and grab your keys, and come on down to the awesome Sweet T's! read more

It's a small, nice and clean place to eat. Seems like a place frequently visit by locals. Off the serving line we had the baked chicken(delicious) and the fried pork shop(taste of burning grease). The side was the Mac and cheese(cold, brought out fresh from the back), greens, black eyed peas, deviled eggs and the corn bread(cold)! We also grab the dessert....yummy! Coconut pineapple cream pie...was sweet and just the way I like it! Cheesecake...yum! The table service was good!!! read more

Sweet T's Restaurant - The exit door! - Restaurants Near Me - Thomson, Georgia

I have driven by this establishment many times without stopping in. That was until yesterday. Now I'm grieving all the lost years I could have spent eating at Sweet T's. It's somewhat cafeteria style Southern deliciousness. My mother and I each got a plate, which we shared. The things we ordered (and loved) were the fried chicken, mashed potatoes with onion gravy (heaven), home style macaroni and cheese, squash casserole, creamed corn, peach cobbler, cornbread and sweet tea. The creamed corn was my favorite, mostly because it tastes just like my grandmother's (RIP Nana). I just can't stop thinking about this place. We've already made plans to come back on Monday with my sister and my husband. Next time I want to try their hamburger steaks. We got there a half-hour before they closed and they had just run out. read more

This was our first time at this restaurant and it was so good!! My pork chop was so tender I didn't even need to chew it! The sides were all excellent, and the place was so clean. Great food for sure, and at a great value as well!! read more

Classic meat and 2/3. Great place friendly people. The fried apple pie was a treat. Fried chicken makes you think grandma is in the kitchen.,worth the trip! read more

Drove from Lexington to meet my date halfway and enjoyed a fantastic lunch at Sweet T's! The food and the atmosphere made for a perfect first date and everyone there was so wonderful and sweet just like their name! I can't wait to go there again!!!!! read more

Worth the wait in line. Good country cooking. Friendly servers. Homemade cakes and pies. Will definitely go back!

I absolutely love this place. The only down side for me is the drive about 45 minutes BUT I have done and will continue doing it because the food is just that great !!! read more

We arrived late so choice of sides was very limited. The country fried steak was good, pickled cucumber and bean salad was good but sweet. Apple dumpling desert was good. Wife's peace cobbler was way to sweet, she couldn't eat it. $26.00 tab little high but acceptable for privately owned restaurant. The staff was wonderful. Checking on us periodically. Very pleasant experience. The restaurant is clean, simple decor, great lunch buffet spot. read more

I can't get past the open air food and no masks at the height of COVID. Filthy. Never again. What a dump.

Great meat and veggie, southern cookin. Every day the menu is different...not huge variety today (chicken mostly), but it was tasty. The greens were too sweet (tried my friend's), stewed squash was excellent, Mac n cheese was ok, cornbread a little greasy. Overall, cute place and friendly staff. The blonde lady behind the counter was a lil loud and FAST talking...first visit so we were struggling to hear what she was asking. Look at the menu outside good before going in so you're prepared. No lollygagging here!! ALMOST as delicious as Lizards Thicket in Columbia but not quite. read more

Comfort food for sure!! Felt like a holiday meal at Gramma's. Everything was delicious. Real banana pudding with meringue and key lime cake were to die for. read more

Nothing like a good home cooked meal and that's what you get every time at Sweet T's and the sweet ladies that keep that place going are always great to see too! read more

Great home cooking! Always super friendly! Wish it was open for supper. We look forward till our next meal.

If you want good home cooking, then you want Sweet T's in Thomson, GA. Thursday's are salmon pattie and banana pudding day. Not box pudding. The real deal with meringue like grandma used to make. You may find fried peach or apple pies, or peach cobbler. Fried chicken is every day and I swear the butter beans are the best I have ever tasted. It's amazing food and Tracy and Mrs. Wanda keep a spotless kitchen. If you are passing through on I-20, jump off the exit and head just a mile or two to Sweet T's! read more

See all

The wife and I went today to have lunch the hours of operation Monday through Friday until 2 PM the food was fantastic absolutely a must eat there again read more

Found this by accident actually. I had pork chop, green beans and black eye peas with a little dusting of stewed tomatoes. Omgoodness it was all good. Oh yeah had sweet tea too and let me tell you, the girls are not going to let you see the bottom of that glass. I will be back. read more

Local meat and three in rural Georgia outside of Augusta. Fried chicken was very lightly fried and the place is a Mom and pop restaurant with Elvis tributes all over as decoration. read more

Excellent meat & 3. Never disappoints. Giblet gravy & stuffing is my favorite in the area.

On Monday they have some of the best chicken livers in town. Not particularly thrilled with the sides. Southern taste buds are a lot different from those in the Midwest read more

Driving back home to North Carolina, we stopped here for lunch. The line was outside and it was differently worth waiting. The best southern comfort food we have had. The staff was very friendly and never let your beverage get anywhere close to empty. We'll differently be stopping by again. read more

Had never been here before yesterday --- hadn't even HEARD of it, in fact --- but am glad our group went! Just great, "down home" food, good portions and attentive staff. I had meatloaf, potato salad, green beans and a cornbread muffin. Great tasting and what more can one say, except get there early! read more

I love this place! Not only is the food great, but being greeted with "What can I get cha darlin'?" makes you feel like your having Sunday dinner at your Grandma's house. It certainly has become a popular place, there's usually a handful of people waiting at the door for a good 20 minutes before they even open! Fried chicken, fried porkchops, meatloaf, mac and cheese, sweet potatoes, and the best butter beans I've ever had in my life! Why not 5 stars then? They are only open for lunch, Monday thru Friday... read more

Probably without a doubt the best restaurant in Thomson. Their fried chicken is so good. Great service from the time I ordered to getting my refills. Staff is cry friendly. My husband and I love eating there. Can't wait for more. read more
