It was busy on a Sunday, but we were a on the later side of the church crowd and didn't have to wait for a table. Again, breakfast food is one of my love languages and it whispered sweet nothings to me that afternoon as well. My husband and I each ordered something different and we're not upset about it. He even added a side of biscuits and gravy because truly - how can you choose!? It was a pretty restaurant with a large bar that I'm sure would be busy later in the days and a great outdoor section with plenty of shade. We talked about taking the kids back soon, it was so worth the drive from Winston!

I wanted to love Speedy Chef. There's something worth appreciating about a family-owned restaurant…read morethat's been feeding a community for decades. Clearly, this place has a lot of people who love it, and I respect that but reviewing what was on my plate, I left underwhelmed. The burger was ok... nothing offensive, but nothing that made me think, "Now THIS is why you skip the drive-thru." The patty wasn't thick enough to be a hearty, traditional burger, but it wasn't thin or crispy enough to deliver that smash-burger experience either. It was hanging out somewhere in the middle and I was hoping for something with a little more personality. I was especially excited about the onion rings because I almost never order them. They had a nice light crunch, but beyond that, they reminded me of the frozen, bagged onion rings I've had plenty of times elsewhere. I don't know how they're made, so that's an impression, not a claim about their kitchen. They just didn't give me much to get excited about. The ranch, though? Really good. Credit where it's due. Then the fried apple pie sign got me. Ice cream, whipped cream, hot caramel sauce... apparently those are the magic words that make me add a dessert I wasn't planning to order. With a refrigerator full of pie slices nearby, I had pictured a fried slice of apple pie. What arrived was more of an apple turnover or empanada with soft serve and toppings. Fair enough (that mental picture was on me) but even adjusting for that, it had the same familiar, standard food-service feel as the rest of the meal. Nothing was terrible, I just kept waiting for the thing that would make this stop feel special, and it never really showed up. I appreciate the history and the place Speedy Chef holds in its community. For me, though, the food didn't quite live up to the excitement of trying it.

When we were arrived we were the only folks there and we had our choice of seating. There isn't tons of seating inside, maybe room for 50 total. We took a seat in the smaller room on the left. The server came quickly to drop off menus and get drink orders. Maybe not completely necessary to mention, but their sweet tea here is good and not overly sweet. The menu is a little more diverse than you'd expect at a BBQ place. Lots of good options. We ordered buffalo chips with ranch to start. They arrived hot and crispy. These were probably my favorite part of the meal. I ordered a hot dog with the special side of the day (buttered corn) and was sharing a 1/4 rack of ribs and mac and cheese with friends. The server had to make sure they had ribs ready. They did. The food for the table came out and my hot dog and corn was dropped off. The ribs were "on their way." A group of 11 came in and the servers started to focus on them. The hot dog was good. A classic NC red dog that had a little crinkle/wrinkle to it which I like to see cause I know they are well-cooked. Toppings were ok. Seemed like they were stingy with the chili (see pic for evidence). The corn was bad - barely warm, watering, and lacked flavor. We had finished our meal and the ribs hadn't come out of the kitchen. We waited and waited. Eventually catching the server's attention. The kitchen hadn't seen the ribs on the ticket. They apologized, took it off the bill, and would get it to us quickly. The rib plate came out. I was going to ask for one of their signature sauces but the plate was dropped and the server headed away quickly. Ribs were great - well smoked and tasty. Definitely would have loved to try their sauces. The mac and cheese was mediocre. barely warm and you guessed it, lacked flavor. Some highs and lows from Wood Box but I'd probably go back and try some of their other items.

It's wonderful to see how this historic landmark building in downtown Elkin has been so beautifully preserved. The lobby of the old theater is the location of the cafe.

Although the cafe was pretty busy we didn't have to wait long for our order to arrive. They offer a nice selection of sandwiches and sides. The soup of the day was pepperoni pizza soup...didn't give that one a try but it sounded intriguing. The bread used to make the sandwiches was better than most restaurants and the quality of the food was excellent. They have regular events with live performances each week inside the theater.

I got popcorn shrimp that was not even warm, wasn't crispy-more like soggy, and was coated in a sauce that was a translucent oily something. No heat other than black pepper. I asked for it to be warmed and they did just that, nuked it and it came back at a warmer temp, but the food was still mid. I would go back of course, but I'll opt for some other dish the next time. The atmosphere is fun and a neat place to go, so definitely give them a try. The servers are always fantastic and on top of things.
