We got vanilla with sprinkles, golden cookie crunch, banana pudding, and butter pecan all on waffle cones for $23 - such a great value for the quality and portion. Every flavor was creamy and delicious, and you can tell it's real homemade, small-batch ice cream. What really made it was the service - Emmanuel and his coworker were absolutely PHENOMENAL. So friendly, patient, and welcoming. We sat in and enjoyed it. The shop is nicely decorated, has ample seating for all size parties, and was exceptionally clean. You can just feel the real country mom-and-pop establishment love in there. This is Benson's hometown favorite for handcrafted ice cream for a reason. Do NOT leave Benson without stopping here - homemade, delicious with unique flavors. We'll definitely be back!

We have been going to the Burney's location in Southport for years when at the beach. Randomly while on a business trip I found this location and had to stop in to see if the quality was the same, no disappointment. Haven't tried all of their options, but I must say that a glazed croissant with sweet fillings is absolutely hard to beat. To those about the nosh, I salute you!

It's a mom & pop place off the beaten path, but not so far off the interstate that fellow lovers of…read moreroad trip Yelp Roulette can't stop and get full as a tick on soul food. Being a fan of non-chain local spots, all of them have their quirks and this one's is pretty simple: They have 2 front doors yet one is the entrance and one is the exit. Both are clearly marked and steps from each other; impossible to miss. Upon entering, you seat yourself, a friendly waitress takes your drink order then its on you to lay back your ears and dive in the buffet. Next nifty quirk are the buffet plates: Real glass, y'all! Plenty of places claim to have soul food but how many of them serve up food on proper plates with proper utensils?! As you can see from my plate, all the bases are covered and you won't leave hungry. Trout, fried chicken, baked chicken, sketti, Mac & cheese, slaw, tater salad, collards, black eye peas, taters and gravy... Now unlike most places I must admit, if you have it in you to do so -leave room for desert!- I didn't get a pic of the 2 different types of cake I ate so someone else can brag on those after taking my advice to stop on in. I even joked that the reason we can't have places like this in the city is because people like me would order a coffee and pay for the buffet, but simply sit and eat a little over a quarter of one of those splendid cakes : D

I had no clue what to expect being a first time patron. My spouse had been here several times and was always raving about how good it was. The stars aligned and we finally made it during a meal time. We came in and ordered and paid at the counter, found our seats, and then waited while our food was being prepared. There's something to see on every wall, and you can tell they know what they're doing with all of the trophies on display that they've won throughout the years. The indoor seating isn't too ample, so don't plan a family reunion, but it can hold a few families at dinner time. There's not a bad meat on the menu. If you're a vegetarian, this is not your new favorite spot. We got their brisket, chicken leg, and smoked turkey. The sauces at the table were tasty, and everyone found a favorite. We were thankful for the ample supply of paper towels, because our littles chowed down and needed to be wiped clean. This Redneck BBQ Lab knows what they're doing. On this particular night, they had too many leftover chicken halves towards the end of the evening, and were selling them half off, so we ate our food, and then got chicken to go for a future meal. Stop in and try it sometime.

Meat is sold by the pound here. 1/4 pound don't sound like much but fills an average person up nicely. If yer like me, n want leftovers for late-night tv watchin', or t'take to work for lunch t'marra, go ahead n order a half pound. I ordered brisket, which was so tender it fell apart on my fork, n sausage, which was already cut in slices for me but dripping juice anyway. (They serve it right here, too, obviously). You git yer choice of their house sawses. Their Grand Champion Sawse, which is a smoky-tangy-sweet, or Competition Sawse, which is "tangy-sweet w/a little heat" (I didn't find it "hot" but I'm used t'eatin' jalapenos) or the North Carolina Sawse, which is yer Tarheel Vinegar style. They're all good, and I et a bit o each, but the Competition Sawse is prolly my fave. The food is very reasonably priced, especially for bbq, and you won't spend n arm n a leg if'n ya eat here. We love their vittles, n plan t'ask 'em about catering our anniversary party t'add a touch o class t'the occasion. Recommend highly!!!
