Found this deli on Yelp when driving through the area and glad we did!!…read more When we walked in the door, we knew we found a special place. Granny was behind the register taking an order. Her granddaughter greeted us and told us the restaurant is a "mom and pop" place so we could place our order at the register with her granny, fjnd a seat where we liked and then she would bring us the food out. She was so sweet!! We got the chicken sandwich and Italian sub combo... the prices are amazing!! Our total was under $17! The food was made fresh, came out quickly and was VERY tasty!! There are many options on the menu and some yummy looking desert in the front cooler. The restaurant is super cute, restrooms were clean and everyone was very friendly! We will definitely stop by next time we drive through! Keep in mind they only take checks and cash.

We each had the turkey plate, so turkey slices and two sides each, and a "roll" which was so tiny it was almost funny, but it was hard. The dressing was fine--Not exceptional but also not awful. Our sides included green beans which made me remember my public school lunchroom. Skip those ! Be aware too that you can call and order for pickup but if you do, and your order isn't ready when you arrive, YOU must check at the SIDE counter and request that someone frequently check "call ins" --which are kept UNDER the counter (you can't get them yourself). And while the counter staff call out people's names for patrons who are sitting at tables to come and get their trays, the staff does NOT call out your name for pickups! We waited an extra 30 mins on our food -- trying not to be rude and ask. I'm glad I finally asked !! I've stopped at a few other places in this town coming through or home from the beach, and Bates is the cleanest. IF I try again, I will try the turkey sandwich.

Ordered the brisket grilled cheese and ended up with a plain grilled cheese with absolutely no flavor. Had a slice of cake to have a little flavor, but the cake was overly sweet. My friend had banana pudding and it was nowhere near homemade. Not worth the money. The bathroom was not very clean, no soap, so how are these employees washing their hands. Just glad I had something with me to wash up. I wish I saw this before eating, as I would have walked out. As we were eating, the employee came by clearing the tables and pushing in chairs, but never wiped the tables. Trying to figure out how this place gets rave reviews.

There was no one manning the front to take our order for a significant amount of time and when she did come out she had an attitude that matched her facial expression, which was anything but welcoming. We tried to inquire about various menu items and in addition to being out of several types of bread, as well as vegetables. She offered no recommendations for substituting those items that you were out of and stood there looking at us like we were inconveniencing her. We all ordered something different and nothing tasted good, down to the sweet tea. We came in hoping to enjoy the atmosphere and food. It was apparent Madison W. didn't want to be there.
