Chicken Coop Country Diner - Salisbury Steak with Fried Okra

Oh my gosh! The chicken came out crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was piping hot!…read moreSeasoned perfectly, along with perfectly seasoned green beans. The french fries are hot and crispy. I got my iced tea, half sweet tea, half unsweetened, just the way I like it it is fresh. So happy that I found this place and listened to other yelpers! Service was quick. The ambience is a diner with lots of tables and a bar. There is background music that is upbeat, which I think is perfect for the atmosphere. There is also a bar serving alcohol on one side of the restaurant. I arrived at 1:30, so there was no line which got my food to me in a very quick amount of time! Highly recommend if you want a hearty meal.

tl;dr: stick with a chicken dish and you will be very happy…read more Interesting little place, connected to a gas station. As you walk in you note the feel of it being a converted diner made to look like a country place. You grab your own menu, seat yourself, and walk up to the bar/register when ready to order. If the first time, you need a minute to get your bearings. Food ordered (3% fee is not using the cash "discount" FYI, pretty common around here and absurd given these OBX prices). Drinks are self serve. Some coke products and excellent tea. This was the end of breakfast around 10:30/11, so it was empty. Service was pretty quick. (they bring it to the table). I thought the breakfast pricing was fair. Shrimp and grits for $12, etc. Especially for the portion sizes. Two things I didn't care for. -The ceilling tiles were crazy dirty and stained and the flor light bulbs were uncovered. -The shrimp and grits needs a re-do. It's huge, with a base of grits, ladels of bacon gravy, and about 5 shrimp and cheddar cheese. It's more like a shrimp, grits, gravy, cheese casserole. I would have much rather had a base of grits, the gravy scooped in the middle with shrimp stuck in it, and topped with cheese. Even with all that you'd think there would be flavor. It was kind of bland minus the occasionally greasy/burnt bacon piece. Also, the shrimp were flavorful but over-cooked and tail on, which is traditional--but in the casserole were a pain in the butt to get the tail off/cut. I know they can do good flavors and plates. My spouse's chicken biscut...omg the hand-breaded chicken was fantastic! My son's baked apples were to die for. You Philly visitors will be happy to see scrapples on the menu - yuck. All in, I would repeat and stick to chicken and the chicken coop.

So the family came to see our youngest daughter In Elizabeth City. If you have never been to…read moreElizabeth City I can tell you that there is not a lot there but there is this spot called the Mills Downtown Bistro. We visited this eclectic, intimate little spot on a Friday night. We got there just in time to get a table. This place is small, it seats maybe 60 people. It has that homey, country feeling with old style tin ceiling tiles. I felt like we were in a small tavern restaurant in the French countryside. By the look of this little store front restaurant you would think the menu would be the usual bar food. How surprised I was to see a fine dining menu. I order the sweet potato risotto with white wine and rabbit sausage. Let me tell you. This was farm to table fresh. The risotto was a little stiff for me but the sausage made up for it. Savory with a hint of spice on the finish made this sausage melt in your mouth good. My daughter ordered the apple crepe (If you like crepes they have savory and sweet) it was excellent other than the apples weren't peeled so the texture was a little off putting. But I still give them five stars for serving fine french style dining in downtown Elizabeth City!

My wife and I were in town on business and always make a point of seeking out local restaurants…read moreinstead of chain establishments. Based on the excellent ratings on both Google and Yelp, we were genuinely looking forward to trying this place. Unfortunately, when we arrived around 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, the restaurant was completely closed. The doors were locked, the lights were off, and there wasn't a sign on the door explaining why. What made it even more frustrating was that their website, Google, Yelp, and even their Facebook page all indicated they were open, and there was no post or notice explaining that they would be closed. I don't normally leave reviews for restaurants I haven't had the opportunity to dine at, but keeping your hours up to date is an important part of customer service. If you need to close unexpectedly, a quick update on Google or social media--or even a simple note on the door--goes a long way and saves customers a wasted trip. I'm leaving a three-star review in the hope that this serves as constructive feedback. We'll gladly give the restaurant another chance if we're back in the area, but I hope future guests have a more accurate idea of whether the restaurant is actually open before making the drive. To those about to nosh, we salute you! Hopefully your trip here ends with a meal instead of a locked door.

I was so excited to learn about Yoder's from my Aunt and equally happy when she suggested we go for…read morelunch. We made the trek from New Bern and arrived a little after noon. We had about about 15 minute wait while they cleared some tables and then we were called to come back to be seated while we browsed the gift shop, which has a cool assortment of gifts, an adorable chatty parrot named Corky and farm equipment. Yup so much to choose from for sure. Once seated we all three quickly decided on the beef tips and for my two sides I chose mashed potatoes and bacon and broccoli salad. You also had your choice of butter for your roll, I picked cinnamon sugar. Within minutes we were served huge plates full of food. Everything looked incredible. With the first fork full I knew this was the perfect choice. Everything tasted incredible. The rich savoriness of the brown gravy with the absolute tenderness of the beef was mouthwatering. The rolls were so soft and fresh and with the cinnamon sugar butter it was pure heaven. Sadly I couldn't finish it all but that just means leftovers!!! Of course when we pulled up my Aunt had to laugh when I immediately pointed out they had a coffee shop as well, so I couldn't leave with an emotional support beverage for the ride back. We made our way upstaitd after my Aunt found her pickled beets in the pantry...um pass. Upstairs they have a cute coffee shop and more shopping. I ordered their specialty Butter Kiss Latte with Almond Milk l, iced and my Aunt got a hot latte. While Sage worked in preparing them I took a spin around the upstairs and then I came back and chatted with Sage while she finished up. She let me know if it wasn't sweet enough she could add a little more sweet for me. Upon first sip I knew this was buttery gold and plenty sweet. If you get a chance stop in for a beverage or better yet a meal, but remember on Fridays it's breakfast all day!

We were belatedly celebrating mom's 84th birthday, and she had not been to Yoder's in 10-15 years…read more Today was my first time. My aunt and cousin joined in on the fun, and it was my cousin's first time as well. Some in our party got the meatloaf, and exclaimed over how delicious it was. I got the parm chicken with rice, which was a little dried out and disappointing. Enter Yoder's cabbage and Dutch potato sides to save the day! Both were absolutely delicious! The cabbage was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned. I was delighted to find they were spicy, with visible red pepper flakes. The Dutch potatoes were creamy and cheesy...a new fave! The roll with the cinnamon butter was a treat indeed. And the tea? We like ours half & half...delivered in big cups with extra ice just the way we like it! I also got an English Toffee Latte to go...and it did not disappoint. Neither did the waitstaff, who were friendly, engaging and ensured our food was delivered with a smile. We left with slices of chocolate, coconut cream, and pecan caramel pie, a loaf of sourdough, and a mocha brownie treat for later. Ohhhh, and a ginormous cinnamon roll, cause why not?! The interior of Yoder's restaurant is a rustic place with a lovely shop to wander through while you wait to be seated. They have a lovely bird in the store that will sing you a song and tell you what the cat and the rooster say. So charming! All in all, I've been hearing about Yoder's for years and years...and it did not disappoint! Can't wait for a return visit!

Wine and beer, pasta, sauces, teas, jams, glassware, olives, crackers, cheese, chocolate.......a foodies dream. After about 25 minutes we were sat. Our waitress was friendly, knowledgeable and ready to work. She was busy with inside and outside tables. We started with the whipped goat cheese and fig jam. Delicious!! They now sell it To Go in the store part. I got the Hot Honey BLT and my friend got the House Grilled Cheese Panini. We both got house salads. Loved that the house salad came with feta cheese. Yes, please. Both sandwiches were good but I really liked the Hot Honey BLT. The Grilled cheese panini was lacking something. I would definitely go back and would recommend.....especially to my foodie friends. Oh....they also have a brunch menu and a kids menu. And it looks like the online menu on the website is not up to date as of October 2026.
