Tee Time is the locals' favorite spot for breakfast and lunch, and after visiting, it's easy to see why! For breakfast, you can choose between the buffet or ordering from the menu. The buffet has everything you'd want in a traditional breakfast--eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, French toast, biscuits, gravy, and more. We also tried menu items, which came out quickly and were freshly made to order. The food was hot, flavorful, and exactly what you'd hope for from a hometown diner. One of the best things about Tee Time is that it feels like a hidden gem in Shallotte that often gets overlooked. The friendly atmosphere, good food, and reasonable prices make it well worth a visit. They also offer daily lunch specials, giving you another reason to stop by throughout the week. If you're looking for a great local breakfast or lunch spot, Tee Time is definitely worth checking out. We'll be back read more

Ate at the Tee Time Cafe for breakfast today. Had the breakfast buffet. They had a good variety of foods. My favorites were the eggs, bacon, and French toast. The waitress was spot on. Had refills in a timely manner. Extremely nice and friendly. I would recommend this breakfast spot to anyone visiting the Shallotte / Holden Beach NC area. First time eating there. Going back for sure. read more

If you want affordable home cookin, this is the place to go! Will not disappoint! Best tea in town and the gizzards and fried chicken and biscuits and gravy and corned beef hash and grits are all amazing! Service is great too! read more

The staff was so nice and accommodating. Ordered food to go and it was so good. The pancakes were huge. The fried chicken was the best I ever had. Great place to just have discovered after being here almost three years. Will be back. Prices very reasonable and there is a breakfast and lunch buffet well worth the money.. read more

Sad little lunch buffet. The biscuits were good. Otherwise, the food is just okay. Fried chicken was very dry and had been sitting before placed on the buffet. The vegetables were tasteless and not even warm. I believe the shrimp is frozen. Likely will not eat the buffet again but might try something off the menu Staff is friendly and helpful read more

This is an Amazing place for breakfast!! Hands down our favorite local spot! Must try if you're in the area!

We attempted to eat there for lunch today. We were told just go sit over there and we sat down and waited and waited and no one remotely looked at us. They were too busy refilling the bar which we did not want. I got up to get someone and my husband said just wait. We waited for 5-7 minutes and no one. No one even said goodbye. We won't be back! read more

A good variety of foods on the buffet. The staff keep the food fresh and hot. And the cost makes it most attractive.

My food was cold when I got it. Said it had pancakes and didn't they never put more out. Eggs tasted weird. Just not a good place.

Awesome food at Tee Time Cafe. The fish is fried to perfection and the sweet tea tastes just like Mama's. Great job guys!

I tried the breakfast buffet. The food was average. Standouts were the fluffy biscuits and tasty sausage gravy. I avoided the bacon because it was dripping grease. The restaurant was very loud and it was difficult to hear others sitting at the same table. The server was attentive about our beverages but not so much about preparing our checks. After waiting about five minutes, she presented them to us at the cashier stand. I didn't find out until later that the cashier had me pay for a friend instead of for myself. If I were to go again, I'd try it early (we had met there at 10 am on a Saturday) when it is likely not quite so busy and so loud. But I'll think twice - there are other and better breakfast options nearby like the Purple Onion. read more

Sweet servers. Very affordable, however there could be some better options on the buffet in the AM. Everything we got off the bar was barely warm. read more

The breakfast bar is always good. Restaurant is always nice and clean and the staff are very nice! Our favorite place to eat breakfast!!!

Have been here twice for breakfast. Love the buffet. And the service is great. In addition, you can pay your bill online and skip those waiting to pay! We will definitely be going back for breakfast. read more

Not real pretty to look at but good food, good service, good price and a excellent health department score. The pork chops and fried chicken were great so give them a try. read more

I wanted something different, today I stopped in at the tee time cafe, The food was good along with the deserts, the wait staff was good and friendly, what got me was the fact there was a bout a 30ish year old boy that wanted to start taking down the buffet, and I had just sat down with my plate!? Immediately I felt I was rushed to leave, the sign says they are open until 2!? The time was about 1:20 Moments later a man came in with his granddaughter, the irresponsible kid calling the shots sail "Tell them the bar is closed" they stood there in confusion because it was within the posted OPEN hours, sadly walked away, a few minutes later another patron walked in, yep! You guessed it, so once again a patron was turned away, my beef isn't with the cafe, but the immature person calling the shots!!! I hope you benefited from this, Have A Blessed Day read more

Great place! Good people! Excellent food!! I would highly recommend a stop for the breakfast or lunch buffet.

A large group of us ate at Tee Time for an early lunch on Thursday April 13. They show case a buffet, but you can order off the menu. Several of the party got breakfast & were pleased. They serve basic southern breakfast items: sausage, eggs, bacon, pan cakes, grits & biscuits. Buffet was good typical southern fare. On this day, it included meatloaf - ok, fried chicken - good, chicken livers - very good, chicken gizzards - didn't try. The vegetables were rather bland, likely canned. The buffet price was very reasonable and included a drink. The restaurant was well maintained & very very clean. I would recommend for a basic everyday economical meal! read more

I love this restaurant and their breakfast buffet. Good food for a good price close to Holden Beach. They also serve lunch.

Excellent fried chicken livers...moist and crispy. Also try their chicken salad in the salad bar.

We eat there 3 time a week. Food great. Me % Z are there on Sunday to save time going to church. People are great.tbey make you feel like family . Come eat with us Sunday. And every other day. You will love it . read more

Stopped for breakfast. Nice staff. Buffet was decently priced, and had a good variety. This place has a little of everything you'd want out a breakfast joint, so it served our group well. Wish they had some fruit options to round it all out, but otherwise would return! read more

GREAT, cheap breakfast. Really the food is so good, but the reason why I gave it 3 stars is because its really old place but a great mom-pop place. It definitely needs updating and a good renovation, but I can tell locals come on a regular basis. The servers and hostesses knows them by name. Its a cheap place though with good food, nothing fancy. They have a buffet. I ordered off the menu. The pancakes are nice and fluffy. Breakfast potatoes are pretty awesome. read more

Stumbled across tee time on a Sunday, and had the breakfast buffet. Food was hot, there were lots of options - all the stuff you'd want for breakfast, and all for a great price! In my opinion, service was a little slow, but that might just be me being a yankee visiting the South. read more

Found this little gem in Shallotte. NC. Excellent breakfast buffet. An absolutely "must try" if you live close or even if you are traveling near Shallotte. You won't regret the detour. read more

This is my go to for breakfast buffet, grits eggs sausage bacon biscuits and gravy, staff is friendly can be a bit slow at times but it's all good I love coming here read more

Went for breakfast. First thing I see on the buffet is a sign that says "for bacon see server" this screams CHEAP! However she is quick to bring out bacon and so when I go to fix my plate there are no eggs, no pancakes, on French toast and only two biscuits that looked undercooked. No plans on returning read more

Buffets daily or order from there menu...everything is always great. There have been times when I have found things not that great on the buffet....but in my opinion that is to be expected with buffet. Great variety and love the all day breakfast buffet on the weekend. Certainly a tasty spot to keep in mind when looking for a good meal at a great price! read more

Breakfast and lunch buffets or choose from the menu. Food is good. Service is excellent. Price is reasonable. We've visited several times. Today I had scrambled eggs (fixed perfectly), potatoes and rye toast. My husband had the chicken salad sandwich with French fries. Everything was brought out quickly and hot. One thing I really like is the restaurant is not too noisy. We'll be back. read more

Never in my life have I ever felt so RACIALLY DISCRIMINATED. We walked in no one bother to greet us or tell us how long the wait would be. My family and I stood there for 15 minutes without anyone acknowledging us. Then to top it off when we where seated there where empty tables all along the windows and the staff had decided to sit us in the far back of the restaurant beside the kitchen door that open and closes constantly. The couple that walked in right before us got seated instantly and where allowed to choose food from the menu (this couple was caucasian). It felt that since my family and I where people of color the staff had decided that we where only able to choose from the buffet and the menu was not available for us to choose from. When leaving this vicinity the host just stared at us as we walked out the door and did not apologize for there poor service. read more

I hope I have the right place - the photo shows a buffet which looks right! It is close to Home depot and the new shopping center being built. Amazing Bacon Swiss Burger, and the wife had a tuna salad that she said was very good. Too soon to try the buffet during this silly corona 19 hoax if it is true. Not a burger person so when I say amazing it is amazing! Best I have had in years and I just turned 69. Even liked the signs on the wall, they were funny. read more

Good food at a good price. Staff very friendly and accomadating. Breakfast or lunch you are bound to get something good.

We decided to have bfast buffet today which was a mistake. Most of the food was cold. I sat & watched for them to bring out fresh eggs, etc. I told the lady when I paid that if they turned the ceiling fans down the food might stay warm & she said then it would get hot in there & I said but the food might b better because it wasn't good at all & she said something like "huh" grunting. We won't go back again. read more

Great food and service!! Breakfast all day til 2. My husband said corn bread is to die for and livers were the best he ever had!

Great breakfast food. They have corned beef hash which is my favorite. Prices are decent, and the lunch buffet is pretty good.

Me and my wife found this place by accident. We ate breakfast. They had a decent size breakfast buffet. The waitress was very attentive even tho the restaurant was kind of busy. We were visiting Holden beach and could tell it was a popular local spot. Both of us did the buffet and were satisfied. Your drink is included with the Buffett which was nice. read more

Excellent food and service!! Prices were great for Breakfast buffet. Definitely will go back!

Unfortunately my husband and two children had a very poor experience this morning at tee-time cafe. Food was unappetizing, seats sticky and a roach crawled on their table at end of meal and they saw another in the floor when leaving restaurant. Needless to say, we won't be returning. read more

Excellent place to grab breakfast at the beach! My friend got the buffet and I ordered the pineapple Belgium waffle. Both were great and my waffle was crispy on the outside and light on the inside. We have eaten here twice in the past month and we're very pleased with service and food both times. read more
