A weekend trip to Townville SC to visit our friends who left CHS for retired life in small town America, lead us to Waldrop's for breakfast on a Saturday morning. Located at the top of a hill from one of the lakes boat ramps, this quaint spot is perfect for supporting local. From the red and white vinyl picnic table clothes, styrofoam cups, roll of paper towels and Texas Pete at each table, I knew we were going to enjoy some great food. Eggs, crispy bacon, toast served with warm melty butter to spread and cheesy hash browns were all delicious. I also tried their jalapeño grits which were yummy too. Reasonable priced, great service, and great food! read more

Great small business with a very friendly staff. Our breakfast was very good. We would visit again.

The Super Philly! I found Heaven! Cut this 2ft hoagie into 6 pieces. Hand cramps trying to hold 1! THANK YOU! I NEEDED THAT!

On our way home, we were hungry for breakfast and came about 10 minutes off of the interstate and happy we did. The view on the way here is beautiful! The owner was super friendly. Dining area and restrooms were clean. Our server was very pleasant & welcoming. We had the western omelet, grits, home fries, hash, biscuits and toast. Everything was so good & tasty. We'd definitely come again when in the area. read more

A hidden treasure. Maybe the best hamburger on lake Hartwell. Friendly waitstaff that makes sure things are good. Food is cooked when you order so yeah you may have to wait a few minutes, this ain't McDonalds and you know it when you bite into the hand made burgers. read more

Walked in and ask if they still doing breakfast she said yes I said good we have a group , she then told us she wasn't going to cook for that many people. Six people. We will never go back again. read more

This place is one-of-a-kind southern cooking at pre-Biden prices in the middle of nowhere. We wish the country was more like this!

Awful food. Breakfast was burned/raw bacon, not sure how that happened, raw frozen potatoes the call home fries and powdery eggs. Tried many times but it's just awful read more

My second trip to this restaurant. The food was good and the wait staff was nice. Just wasn't super impressed with the food. Just mediocre. read more

Waldrop's restaurant is a small, quaint little place that sells fuel, bait (not live) and small grocery type items. Comes in very handy for it's location next to two boat ramps, the closest being Weldon boat ramp and up the road a bit at Hatton's. The fuel is non-eth 90 and is well under price for a place near the lake. Speaking of... this restaurant is lake accessible. You can tie your boat up at Weldon's boat ramp on the opposite side of the dock from the ramp and walk a very short distance to the restaurant. Now onto the food. Went in and was greeted my nice smiling faces, we chose to sit at the bar. Ordered a BBQ pork chop which was the special of the day, and a burger. While we waited, the girl behind the counter was very hospitalbe and gave us some samples of things including the pound cake and onion rings, and offered to cook us a sausage because she said that is what the restaurant is fantastic for. We did also have the burger. The BBQ Chop itself was the let down, a bit dry, but the mac and cheese was easy 5 stars, slaw was 5, the burger was 4 stars. fries were fresh out of the frier, large crinkle cut fries, and were great. Total bill came to 15$, not bad for two of us. for the fact that this is boat accessible I will be back, I hope to try some of that world class sausage they were raving about. read more

What an amazing little place. We just moved to northern Georgia and our neighbor told us to check this place out. He raved about their breakfast. We stopped by today for lunch and WOW we loved it. First, don't let the parking lot and the building run you away - living in rural GA has taught me not to judge on appearance. We were immediately met and welcomed by the staff and the fact that a pitcher of sweet tea was waiting for us at our table started things off the right way. My wife ordered the daily special which was a hamburger steak with mashed potatoes, Mac & cheese, black-eyed peas, cornbread and dessert all for $7.99. I got a double cheese burger with bacon plate with my choice of toppings and the plate came with onion rings and slaw. ($10.50) Simply, everything was down-home amazing. Every thing we ate was freshly prepared and delicious. The down-home charm of the staff and patrons was off the charts; not to mention we enjoyed listening in on some spirited conversations between the obvious locals. We live about 20 miles from Waldrop's and we will be making this a regular stop. They have limited times that they are open so make sure you check their Facebook page or web site. read more

Gotta love Waldrops ! Great breakfast and we always love their specials. This is a "go to" place for good food. People are always friendly read more

My family loves this place. Every year we come for Memorial Day and Labor Day. Amazingly good food that's cheap and some down to earth people. Highly recommend! Just a hometown hole in the wall place that's good for the soul. read more

Stopped here on our way to Greenville. It's off the beaten path but well worth it! A little hole in the wall that truly was a gem to find. We got a good giggle out of a table of locals that solved the world's problems in just one morning over coffee. I am sure this is a daily occurrence. Just a good local place to drop by and eat good home cooked food. It may even take you back in time! Food was excellent and reasonable prices! We will be back! read more

The people were nice. But all the reviews saying this is good food, I'm sorry. Where y'all been eating? Maybe it was just our experience there but we tried it based on the positive reviews... dont go out of your way to eat there. A chicken tender on a hot dog bun with nacho cheese... that's a menu item. The folks were super nice. Very friendly atmosphere but it was more like going to grandmas house to eat. I think it's a mother daughter establishment. Like I said, nice and friendly. Not good food. Plus side they have fuel, storage units, and a "motel" they are NOT on lake Hartwell. You have to pull up on a public dock and walk about 1/4 mile. read more

Been here once, ordered a philly cheese steak. Was pretty good, a bit greasy, but it's suppose to be. The waitress was nice, the atmosphere is old school, just the way it should be. Nice little greasy spoon. I would give it five stars, but it's it a little on the dirty side. read more

Super country breakfast place run by an adorable family. Everything we had was delicious and rivals any overpriced breakfast we would order in Atlanta. We will definitely stop in again! read more

Can access by water, short walk uphill to get to restaurant. I had the lunch special, meat and two and dessert. Very tasty, food seemed fresh, no complaints. Wife had a philly chicken sandwich and fries, also good. Friendly service. Plan to get back for breakfast and Friday/Saturday night specials. read more

Great little local place to grab breakfast or burgers. Just come early if you want the daily special meat and three because they sell out fast. One of my favorite local spots. read more

Stopped by for breakfast today. Delicious and reasonably priced. Waffles, biscuits, bacon, sausage - all good. It's a little out of the way, but if you're nearby it's worth it! read more

Nice homey place out in the country run by people who care about their place. Homestyle cooking.

It doesn't look like much when you pull up, then you open the door and it smells like heaven. My cheeseburger was the best I've had in years. It's incredibly clean and well run, everyone was very nice/welcoming! The dinner menu looks delicious so we're planning on going back for seconds and thirds. read more

What a pleasant surprise this place turned out to be! When we pulled up I was a little unsure about eating in a bait store (haha) but we decided the best places are always the ones that only the locals know about!! The service was awesome, food was outstanding and the conversation was even better! Don't let the outside appearance fool you - go in and eat ~ I promise you will be glad you did!! We came for breakfast and it was ALL on point! The lunch special posted on the wall looks so good we might hang around so we can come back! read more
