    Pork chop, egg and cheese biscuit from the Bowman House
    Mark B.

    If you're looking for a place with good Southern-style food, country charm, and friendly service... this is it. Breakfast biscuits are big and tasty, chili dogs and burgers are a good choice for lunch, and pork chops, chicken livers or fried chicken are great supper options. Be sure to try the turnip greens.

    Chicken bacon ranch pizza

    Best food in town great service highly recommend the pizza any type. The burgers are the best you'll find in a 50 mile radius.

    The food was just ok. The atmosphere was less so. Quiet and awkward at best. The service was good, but I don't think we will be back.

    This was the most flavorless food I've ever had in the south. Sticky dumplings, dry corn bread and bland Mac n cheese.

    Okay... So, I've never actually been to the location, why I didn't want to do a review... but I've…read morehad a lot of their food. Mostly their chicken sandwich and fries in the form of take out/pick up. Royston Drive-In has been my replacer for hometown easy to grab chicken sandwich fixes for awhile now since getting burned a little by another local eatery in terms of.. well, their chicken. No puns intended. No one was burned by a chicken sandwich. Anyways, Royston Drive-In has been consistently good. Why I'd like to give them credit where it's due. Plus, they're also one of the places outside of the regular fast food stops that are generally open and in the area. Royston is infamously hard to figure out sometimes when and what is open. Monday is the new Sunday is all I got. As for that Chicken Sandwich. Keep up the good work. I know it's about the same as fast food, but it works and I'm happy with it.

    Our family has eaten here for so many years that we cant even remember how long it been. However…read moreover the last few years we have watched this staple of Royston go downhill very badly. We have had to returned orders while in dine in, called about incorrect or low quality orders when we get home, I have even more recently begun or had family begin checking orders before we leave. Tonight I sent someone unaware of the issues to pick up our order. The double with bacon burger that I ordered and paid extra for was a single w/o bacon, my tater tots were instead fries, and they forgot our two orders of cole slaw. I called and after getting unthoughtout excuses from a young lady I then spoke to the owner Lee who just acted like an disinterested, dismissive and disrespectful prick, I normally would have taken up for Lee but his behavior was inexcusable I told him if that's how he chooses to act he's lost a few customers...he never asked who he was speaking to and dont think he knew so his responce was....and....I dont care...I guess we wont be seeing you again....I would say he had a bad day but his unwilling to right the issue or even right our name down to take care of it later. Had he.....he likley would have realized the family he was talking to. He didn't know who he was talking to as we are a very big family in the area and have a long history with his place. He has likely lost about 50 family members in one fatal swoop, Hes lost our families businesses ever ordering from him again. After his behavior and lack of interest in fixing anything and him allowing his business to faulter at the expense of his customers I suspect he will continue to lose more and more each day. Lee we wish you well from a distance.... but take for granted what God gives you and he will take it from you

    Stopped by Arnold's of Seneca for the first time last night and used the drive-through. The…read moreservice was the highlight of the visit. The employee at the window couldn't have been nicer, very friendly, helpful, and even offered me a menu to keep for future visits. Truly excellent customer service. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich (lettuce and tomato only (no premium topping options available), along with onion rings and coleslaw. The total came to $13.08 before tip, which is a great price and initially set expectations fairly high. The wait time was reasonable, but when I received the bag it felt surprisingly light. Once home, the portion sizes were underwhelming. The onion rings were moderate, the coleslaw was about an ice-cream-scoop portion, and the grilled chicken sandwich consisted of a very small piece of chicken with one slice of lettuce and a thin slice of tomato on a plain white bun. For context, I weighed the chicken portion and it came in at 2.68 ounces, which is noticeably smaller than expected for a sandwich. Food quality was basic. The coleslaw appeared pre-packaged and was quite watery, and the onion rings seemed mass-produced rather than freshly battered. The chicken itself could have used more seasoning and a more substantial portion. Even a slightly upgraded bun would have helped. I'm giving this two stars instead of three because while the service was outstanding and the pricing is attractive, this is a restaurant first and foremost, and the food quality and portions didn't meet expectations. I'm not trying to bash ownership; a small increase in price to allow for better ingredients and slightly larger portions could make a big difference.
