    I was very hungry so I got my ex-husband Bartholomew to get me some food. I requested a burger from Terry's Cafe & Catering and they always have very delicious burgers and the sweet tea is to DIE for, but this time my tea was unsweetened and my burger was undercooked and DISGUSTING!!!!! NEVER AGAIN WILL I EAT THIS FOOD

    I've been duped. Snookered. Bamboozled. Hoodwinked. Wooed and enticed by a five star rating, I was so excited to try Terry's. All 5 stars (and a few 4s) from all reviewers! This place must be awesome! My server, who was very sweet and accommodating, enthusiastically touted all the food options to the point that I was salivating. I wanted to try EVERYTHING! I don't know what happened, but my experience did not even come close to what it was hyped up to be. Maybe things were just off today. But I don't think so. The feature burger was nice and big, that is true, but the beef was sorely lacking in flavor and did not perform well on the Texas toast. The hot dog had a good flavor, but was over cooked (it was shriveled and a little hard on the outside). The chili was way too mild and the slaw was way too wet-- the bun quickly became soggy. The fries were just average. The sweet tea was excellent. To broaden the scope of my review, I sampled the chicken salad and found the chicken to be tough and lumpy and the flavor bland. Quaint but a bit dark inside, Terry's is stocked mostly with locals. And for me, it didn't live up to its laudable billing.

    This is the quintessential local cafe. Friendly when you enter and remains that way. Good food, served super fast, very reasonable in price and accommodating to simple requests. This is another little gem to support.

    Chicken salad sandwich and corn nuggets (outstanding)..forgive this picture, it was not taken by me!

    So my preceptor took me to this hidden gem right outside the hospital for lunch. This is a small establishment with GREAT prices and food! It's no surprise this place is jam packed at lunch. So when you think 'southern diner', you'd think the food would be dripping with grease. NOT here! I got the chicken salad sandwich and corn nuggets for $5! I HIGHLY recommend the corn nuggets..they are like hush puppies stuffed with corn chowder! So sorry I didn't take a good picture, I forgot my phone, but my preceptor snapped a photo of the whole dish for me. I'll definitely be coming back here before I head back east and let you know how the rest of their menu compares. Parking: private lot, right off the highway They take credit cards! Great, fast, friendly service!

    I ordered one of the specials of the night, beef tips. They were marinated, and they were tender and had a good flavor. Also got a baked potato and homemade slaw, with texas toast. Very good meal for $7.99. My son got grilled chicken with bbq sauce, bacon and cheese with fries and a salad ($7.99). I tried the chicken and it was good. My daughter got the homemade spaghetti ($6.50), with a salad and texas toast. Spaghetti sauce was good, tasted like something you would make at home. Their house salad dressing was a creamy Italian, and it was delicious. Server was friendly, and very helpful on my first visit. Took a homemade chicken salad sandwich, with macaroni salad to my wife, and she said it was very good.

Not many dining choices in this area. Ample parking and a large dining area with tables efficiently serviced so that they turn over quickly. Our wait for a table was only 10-minutes, following a group of 18! The service was the star of the experience. Very efficient, helpful, attentive servers. Shout out to Suzanna. The large staff worked well together and seemed to make everyone feel comfortable. The ambience is southern, hometown casual. You feel like you are visiting your large family from start to finish. Nothing pretentious. Clean enough. Comfortable. Pricing....in this time of food inflation, this restaurant still offers amazing prices. My husband and I had two large dinner entrees with water and our bill came to just under $24.00. Our portions were generous as evidence in the photo. Our waitress recommended the grilled pork chops which were hot, juicy and seasoned just right. They came with two veggie sides from a long list of choices. I chose collard greens and Mac and cheese. These items were just average and only luke warm as was the biscuit (from a choice of about 5 bread options). Had the sides been hot and a little more flavorful, I would have given 5 stars. For vegetarians and all-day breakfast eaters, Cooper Pot is your place; so much to choose from on their menu. Vegans might struggle as most southern cooking includes dairy and it looks as if they cook their sides in large quantities and keep them in a warmer to serve. The ability to respond quickly to large numbers of travelers and locals, with solid, well-priced, filling meals is the gift of the Copper Pot. We will return when traveling their way.

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.

Anyhow, I found myself here after a hot day of golf outside of town, and this was the perfect place to please everyone, get a cold drink, and something tasty to eat. Beverage wise, I was too dehydrated to jump into beer, so I just pounded a bunch of water while there. Food wise however, we had lots of tasty things. The hot chips app that comes drizzled with bbq sauce and ranch is better than it sounds, though I preferred the pickle chips for sure. To me, the star here were the wings. They were nice and large, plump with plenty of meat. I had a korean sauce and a hot honey sauce and thoroughly enjoyed all 10. Maybe even had a leftover drummy or two from some of my companions. Would come back here for more casual eats and drinks again!

The draft list was only accessible by scanning the QR code. Not normally an issue for me but it was a little annoying since my cell service wasn't great in this area. I finally got it to pull up and asked for the Angry Troll PB Porter (I forget the name), the waiter asked if I wanted a sample first and I was so happy he did because it was not very peanut buttery to me. I decided to try a can of Docs: Pumpkin cider which ended up being a MUCH better choice for me. It was delicious. We started with some cheese curds as an appetizer. The kids split a kids cheese pizza (it comes with fries) and my bestie and I split a Philly Cheesesteak pizza. The cheese curds were amazing! I didn't try the kids pizza although the fries seemed a little over seasoned, especially since they were served to kids. My Philly pizza was not great though. The primary taste was banana peppers. Not meat, not cheese...the vinegar-y, sour taste of banana peppers. I was not a fan. Then the bill comes....I guess I should have asked for the price of the cider (NONE of the beer has a price listed.) My CAN of Doc's cider was $9.50. Not sure if that's normal in this area but in Durham, that can would have only been $6 (MAYBE $7.) TLDR; service - good, drinks - expensive, food - hit or miss.
