So I try to rate all restaurants on a common scale... White Glove treatment in an amazing setting…read morewith marvelous food being a 5... and going down from there. A 3-star is average everything, likely would go back but nothing special. A 1-star may include crawling creatures in the resturant or at your table and would definitely not go back. This place based on the above is a 2. Setting is very minimal, clean enough but not particularly appealing as a sit-down place. It has a 3 table setting and a food spread a typical family might have, very much a take-out kind of place. It's sort of small scale cafeteria line (6 items plus fried chicken) merged with Grandma's kitchen. Food was OK, but nothing standout-ish. Biggest thing going for it is it's relatively cheap and the lady helping was quite nice. In the end though, I'd not likely come back here.. KFC or Bojangles would be tastier options.

Very welcoming atmosphere. When you come in you're instructed to peruse the menu and order/pay at the register. Or you can seat yourself first, gather your utensils, and order from the menu more leisurely. I chose the latter option. Totally worth careful consideration of the menu IMO. I chose the Eye Opener Breakfast with extra side of grits, sausage and home fries. My family ordered the Salmon Smorrebord and the BLT&E on Crossant. Absolutely delectable. I'm definitely a fan and look forward to my next occasion to visit.

Y'all, we are SICK of Sysco/US Foods restaurants with powdered eggs, rehydrated taters, onions,…read moregravy (?!) and frozen/chef mike picking up the slack for what could be done in literally a cast Iron Skillet. Rather than going to the local places, including golden trough, shcmenny's, no-iron-nor-skillet, we ventured to this little greasy spoon and dare I say, it's legit but is NOT greasy?! Apologies, I was too hungry to get a pic of the menu but I can assure you it is solid. Walk in, order from the menu board overhead the cashier then seat yourself. Salad bar (not pictured) was well loved. We ordered two home style plates with coffee and a side of gravy for each and came in just under $35 with tip. COFFEE was great. Not a fan of the fact they didn't have real whole milk or cold half and half available but not once did any of the staff NOT ask if we needed topped off or more coffee. The sausage patties were solid. They had a bit of a hamburger taste to them so there could be some flat top cleaning that is in order. Eggs were real eggs. The biscuit I wouldn't write home about and the gravy was clearly a powdered mix that had been churched up with the aforementioned hamburger and sausage grease, hit with some pepper and slapped in a 4 oz bowl. Made for a good condiment. Speaking of condiments, everything was clean to the touch. Table, sugar packet holder, napkin dispenser, salt & pepper, the tables, the chairs. The restaurant itself did not throw off "truck stop" vibes although the scenery from the crystal clear windows was the only reminder we were, indeed, at a truck stop. I asked for hot sauce, they only had Texas Pete. YMMV on that and it's OK. Everything else I asked for was spot on fantastic. If they had a breakfast buffet with this caliber of food available, this would be THE place to stop on I95 in NC and attract the locals, too. It beats any breakfast I've had in ENC by a country mile. Kickin myself for not trying this place before. Biscuits are meh and not a fan of tipping at POS when ordering before even being served. Will order hashbrowns with onions next time and only one side of gravy because it's not REAL gravy but does make for a nice meal. And yes, there will be a next time.

I understand as if you aren't seated when they open, you can expect a 90-minute to two-hour wait. I was hoping to get the Chicken Pot Pie this time and thought my prior visit was just off. I was thrilled that most of the menu was available. They were just out of the banana pudding. So I got to try the pecan wings I read about with the white sauce. It was so good. Then I got the chicken pot pie and biscuits. The pot pie had old biscuits for the topping, but the creamy mixture with large chunks of chicken was delicious. My biscuits came with honey and were served warm. I left with a slice of the chocolate-caramel-coconut cake, a side salad without onions, and a fried boneless thigh. The salad was made correctly, and the dressing was included. The salad was full of veggies, and the cake was rich and moist. Service was friendly and as soon as I finished my iced tea, another appeared. My wings were brought out first and it was a while for the rest of the meal as the restaurant was full. But they didn't rush me at all. I actually liked the space between the dishes, as I might not have been able to eat it all otherwise. I couldn't finish both biscuits and was even provided a container for the honey. I am going to miss Beasley's, but I'm glad I got a positive experience to remember the restaurant.

I let him know the food was great, home cooked and good portions. The one thing that ruined the evening was the RUDE waitress, he walked up to the table and before he could sit down she bought my drink out, she asked what will you have to drink, he's looking confused and responds still standing, well what do you have? She rambles all the options so fast I'm not sure he understood all but made a choice. Then he sat down. She came back and slid it on the table like a fly by.. Soon she bought a hush puppy basket they were cold, I dare not complain she was so nasty and distant. Next she came back, order book open and I was like it's his 1st time, she didn't say anything, she just looked out the window and waited, so we just knew we needed to order, so I named my meat before I could finish SIDES??then he simply asks did they have bone in chicken ( I didn't know he was going to ask or I would have told him beforehand) she says no we have , fried chicken breast tenders, sisco chicken etc, she named every chicken dish on the menu without taking a breath.. I can give her props for knowing that..we both were looking at her confused and she never looked at us it was always "looking out the window " He said just give me "Flounder " one piece or two??? He replies one, SIDES??? Like we needed to be on point. She took the menus and left. She asked the questions she needed but was mean, not engaging and just rude. The WAY she asked.. When our food came this waitress walked by and literally slid our food on the table in a way that was like HERE! And kept walking I don't even think she stopped when she put them on the table she may have slowed down. We had to reach towards the end of the table to slide our plates in front of us. We both looking at each other in agreement she just nasty! The next time she came back she walked by and sat down a half glass of refill for his drink, she hadn't asked she just did it, suppose he wanted a glass of water? When we put our forks down she came over to get his plate and bought me a to go box as I still had half my food on my plate and she left the ticket. She didn't say is there anything I can get you or anything the entire time. He put his pymt with the ticket and put it on the edge of the table, I hadn't been in a while so I forgot we would pay on the way out. She was cleaning the floor near us and slid our ticket/pymt farther on our table, as if it was in her way, again he's confused so he said this is ready and she let him know to pay up front. I have never experienced such a nasty waitress at this restaurant and because of this I probably will never go back. I don't like not feeling comfortable and welcomed in a place where my money and time is going into. I started to complain before I left but in reality I don't think it would have mattered, and we left a tip not as much as we would have if she was more pleasant. I don't know whether she was having a bad day, a long day or to take it personal but I can't deal with attitude like that and won't take a chance on it again. This man drove a hour to experience this was just unbelievable!!!!
