Being that it's an old train station, you can tell there's a lot of history within the building. We loved everything about our breakfast, I ordered the biscuits and gravy along with a side of sausage and hash browns. Everything is made to order so be prepared to wait a moment for your food to come out - I wish we knew this ahead of time so we coulda called in our order. My husband had the steak and eggs and swapped his grits for hash browns. My daughter ordered a pancake meal and she actually ate everything! She said it was some of the best pancakes she's ever had. We will definitely be back!!

We were not disappointed. We got there 30 min before closing because we looked on google and it said they close at 6 when really they close at 1:30 They were very kind. The food was delicious. We both got a burger & potato salad. My husband burger was missing the egg so they immediately took it back and fixed it. The ambiance of the place is so nostalgic. Love the train station setting. We sat next to the window and could see the train tracks. We will return!

Upon entry, you go to the right to get in line and order. There is a sign with daily specials (you can also check out their Facebook page!). Up first are the trays and silverware and then the salad bar. After that are some entrees and sides they dish out for you. We ordered the rib-eye meal which comes with a side and bread but you can add whatever you want! I think it was $29, which at first seemed a little expensive, but my brother and friends assured me was definitely worth it! We also grabbed a drink and some dessert. All of the employees were very kind and welcoming. We went right at 5 on a Thursday evening so there was plenty of seating. The tables were big and there was room for all 10 of us (that's why we went early!) The food...was amazing! The steak was PERFECT. I asked for it medium and it was medium. So tender and flavorful! My brother wasn't lying when he said it was worth it. I also had the loaded mashed potatoes - excellent, biscuit-yummy, and the chocolate peanut butter pie- OH MY! I will definitely be returning to this establishment. We really enjoyed it.

The large oj is served in a beer mug, so be prepared for a lot of juice if you order a large. The juice is not fresh squeezed but it is tolerable.

With only a few choices in Thomaston for breakfast this place stands out. We were here for breakfast but they have daily lunch specials that sounds good. We will come back to try lunch. They do not accept credit or debit cards but there is an ATM at the gas station next door.

It's a Country cooking kinda spot, nothing crazy in terms of flavors or offerings. Place is clean and tidy, servers were both very nice and each of the ladies that were in the back cooking, that came out were nice as well. Hamburger is an unseasoned little less than 1/4 pound patty that is flat top cooked. Bun was standard and they ask what toppings you want and add them for you. Onion rings are a commercial frozen food service product and are standard in flavor and unseasoned as well. Veggies were fresh and they didn't cheap her on the mayo. Country Fried steak as fried and crispy and commercial food service product as well. The brown gravy was nice and peppery which I enjoyed and seasoned properly. The fries were crispy but unseasoned, and since I don't like ketchup I was out of luck and ended up dipping them in my gravy. Texas toast was toasted nicely but the butter they used is unsalted so it was bland. The Cole slaw......was brought to the table at room temp and the room was like 74 degrees...that was a first for me. Most people want their Cole slaw chilled, even at picnics outside in the South in the dead of summer, I've eaten colder slaw. It's heavy on the Mayo which is the saving grace! I added pepper and salt and a splash of bottled lemon juice they brought with the iced tea and jazzed it up. Yeah...I said jazzed like some middle aged mom! Price point was completely reasonable and their bathroom was tidy. They did a steady walk-up and order at the window service while we were there. More people came and went from the window than the dining room. I'd probably come back and try their other items just to see, if I'm in the area and was out of new options to try. Nothing was a deal breaker in terms of repeating the experience...but nothing was all that great either.

When I search reviews on a business before going, I don't just accept them at face value, but rather, read them and determine if the reviewers are just entitled brats. lol Now that being said: here we go... ha ha This place was the worst experience I can recall with a business in nearly 50 years of life. It was very cold outside, and looking at the online pics looked like it was open-air seating only. So I called them to ensure there was also indoor seating at this cool looking bar. It was 8pm. The man reassured us there were indoor seating options. He then asked "are ya'll coming tonight?" I replied that we were. He then said "how long?" I then asked what time they closed. He replied at 10pm. A little perplexed, I let him know we were on the way. Red flag #1. I told my husband I didn't want to feel rushed out the door if they were trying to close early and didn't really get the vibe they wanted our business. He suggested we just give them a try anyway. When we pulled up, we noticed maybe 3 cars in the parking lot of this very big property. Red flag #2. As we entered the hotel, the gentleman asked us if we called about the bar. We said yes and he directed us to the entrance doors. The entrance was essentially the exit... to the outdoors. HAHA It was approx 40 degrees outside. As my husband and I looked a little perplexed, a female approached where we were standing, never even looked at us or acknowledged us in ANY way and said to the gentleman, "WHAT DO THEY WANT?" He informed her we were there for the bar. We asked where the indoor seating was. Y'ALL... this man took us back in the hotel lobby and pointed at the lobby area. You want us to eat a late dinner and have drinks at this cool looking bar, but in actuality we sit where patrons eat their continental breakfast and are served by someone who has all but said "why are you here?" What?? So... my husband and I said no thank you and went to Cowboy Town which is a very short drive away. Please go there instead. Great food and drinks with a super cool small town vibe, live music, and barrel racing most weekends. Maybe when the weather is warm and the pool is open, The View would be a cool establishment. But it needs to be seasonal only and absolutely closed the remainder of the year. Bless it. I do believe the reviews you see are mostly BS. Please pay very close attention to the details of them.

The service by our friendly and funny waitress Beth was top notch. We went early , getting there 15 minutes before they opened at 11. There were already a dozen folks waiting on the porch already! They had a sign in sheet by the door so there was no rush or guessing when to go in as they called parties from the list. The dining rooms is not big and there are lots of antiques and movie posters on the walls. You really felt you were back in a restaurant decades ago. The train tracks are right beside The Whistle Stop so the name is appropriate. We started with the fried green tomatoes which were great with the somewhat spicy remoulade sauce they came with. I then had the pork chops and my wife had the chopped steak. Both were good. The veggies we saw all looked good. The Brussels sprouts were roasted with sugar I think as they were sweet. The mashed potatoes were good the turnip greens were just OK as was the cornbread. Our total bill, for two lunches and 2 teas was about $55. After lunch the small Main Street in Juliette offered several shops to browse through and shop making for a fun lunch outing.

She kept the whole family in stitches. The restaurant is pretty popular, so there is a bit of a wait, but there are several shops along the street displaying an eclectic mixture of items, including FGT souvenirs (think "Towanda!") We can't wait to visit Georgia again so that we can have another meal here.
