For us, a trip to the South isn't complete until we've visited Bojangles. My family is from the…read moreSouth so I grew up eating fried chicken, country ham, and biscuits. As a result, I'm a little picky when eating these foods in the North or when we're at a self-proclaimed "Southern" restaurant here in Michigan. Even though it's a fast food restaurant, Bojangles serves some mighty fine biscuits! Every time we've eaten at Bojangles the biscuits have been moist and thick. Yes, every time! Also, outside of one occurrence, we've always found the chicken to be crispy and not too greasy. The one occurrence I mentioned? Well, it was late on a Saturday night and was getting near closing time. We ordered some fried chicken that ended up being more greasy than normal. However, we took into account the time of our visit and just shrugged it off. Nevertheless, the chicken was still tasty and we finished most of it. Also, we are fans of their breakfast biscuits, which they serve all day. We're especially fond of their Country Ham & Egg Biscuit. Unfortunately, it's much harder than in years past to find country ham at retailers here in Michigan. As a result, we like to purchase a couple of these items for our journey home. Even after sitting almost a full day the biscuits are moist and tasty the next morning, the eggs are fresh, and the country ham was lean and not overly salty. Lastly, we always found the employees at this particular location to be professional and patient. We would recommend Bojangles to anyone that may fancy a nice southern style fast-food meal.

It then took approximately 15-20 minutes for our food order to be taken, and about 28 minutes for the food to arrive. The food itself was tasty, as usual. However, the bread was noticeably different from what we've had in the past. It used to be large, soft, and fluffy, but this time it was more flaky and lacked the light texture we're accustomed to.

Hand breaded everything from fried green tomatoes to chicken tenders and don't forget the breakfast with homemade biscuits and gravy. Breakfast is all day long!! They recently added a salvage grocery store inside and the prices are amazing. I believe they said they would be taking food stamps very soon for the groceries. I love the atmosphere and decorations. I know it's a little out of the way but the drive is well worth it. Just google post office surgoinsville. Tell them Hungry Man sent you. Except i'm not hungry any more.

Their service is ALWAYS consistent. 4). They score the highest in health code inspections, across their many locations. 5). They have cool uniforms. 6). They have cool menu item names. 7). They have daily quotes. 8). They have giant hotdogs, drinks, and hamburger fixtures that are super cool. Whoever makes those, I would LOVE to meet you and shake your hand. Seriously though, when I'm craving fast food.. my weapon of choice is a Big Pal w/cheese, Frenchie fries, and a Razzy. Oh I forgot to mention, their food baggies are super cool as well. Very retro! And the best part of all is the price. Really... they are cheap. Which is shocking considering that their food is extremely fresh for fast food standards.

It's a nice bar with a ginormous tv although this Friday night was fairly dead with only 2 or 3 patrons other than my Mrs and I. It's bright clean and happy just like the staff. If I were local I'd have a burger or two here every month.

My husband and I got fried pickles, burgers and fries. For the price (which I think they ranged from 3-6 dollars depending on the burger), they were a great size. The portion of fries and the fried pickle appetizer we received was enough to take home. My daughter got a macaroni and cheese kids meal which came with one side, which was also a large portion. She ate every bite! The restaurant has several homemade desserts to choose from and we ended up taking home a slice of butterscotch pie. It was too sweet for me but the flavor was good. Outside of burgers they offer "home cooked" food, they had specials like meatloaf, country fried steak, catfish, etc. They are also open for breakfast, I looked at the breakfast menu and they had decent deals on a variety of items. Our server was very kind and didn't mess up our order (my husband can be picky and it's easy to mess his order up), so that's a plus. Definitely come here if you're looking for a filling meal at fair prices (most of the combos come with a drink, too which is awesome!)My only complaint is that the back room was pretty chilly, maybe they didn't have the heat on because it was warmer earlier? But I will definitely come back to try more of their menu!

Server was chatty and laughed it up with us at first table visit, then was busy and more matter of fact/less interaction thereafter. May be due to more sat tables in her area or the need not to impress us anymore once our order was taken. Which was fine with us, because we were engaged with one another for the occasion. Food came out fairly quickly and everything was made to order. Not a complaint but something to note since we were told entrees come with a salad and a side OR we can do 2 sides "no problem". If you choose 2 sides, there is a $2.99 up-charge. Again, not a complaint, just wished she explained that instead of making it appear there was no difference. Sidenote....still wished they served prime rib. Last asked about it, the manager said it wasn't cost effective and yet their neighboring competitors still offer them.

Should have probably asked for a different area but it took so long we didn't want to wait again. I should sure taken pictures to post. Will be a while to go back, that makes 2 times back to back that we have had less than average service. Overall the food was still pretty good. Asparagus needs to have some seasoning on it!
